Hail Damage, Roof Leaks and Other Signs After a Storm
Storm damage is often hard to see from the ground, so roof insurance claims in Leander, TX start with a close look at the roof itself. Hail can bruise shingles and knock loose the granules that shield them from the sun. Wind can lift shingle tabs, bend flashing and break the seals that keep water out.
Call for a free roof inspection if you notice any of these after hail or high wind. A small sign on the ground can point to a larger problem up top.
- Dents or dark spots on shingles, vents or metal trim
- Shingle granules collecting in gutters or at the ends of downspouts
- Missing, creased or lifted shingles after a wind storm
- Cracked or dented roof vents and pipe boots
- New water stains on ceilings or in the attic
- Dented, sagging or loose gutters
Our Claim Process
How Our Insurance Claim Process Works
The Kerusso Roofing & Construction supports homeowners through a storm claim in three steps, in the same order every time. Each step is documented, so you and your insurance company look at the same evidence. The decision on your claim always rests with your insurer.
- Step 1
Free Roof Damage Inspection
We inspect the roof for hail impacts, granule loss, damaged vents and gutter issues. Every finding is documented with photos and notes. The storm damage roof inspection costs nothing, whether or not you decide to file a claim.
- Step 2
Detailed Damage Report
We turn the findings into a clear report that separates functional damage from cosmetic damage. Functional damage affects how the roof sheds water and protects your home. Cosmetic damage changes only how the roof looks.
- Step 3
Working With Your Adjuster
We submit the report to your adjuster and, if needed, meet the adjuster at your home. On that visit we point out the damage we documented and help make sure covered damage is included. Your insurer decides what the policy pays for.
Wind Damage Roof Repair and Hail Repairs After a Claim
Once the claim is reviewed, the work itself begins, and the right fix depends on what the inspection found. Limited damage often calls for a targeted repair. Wind damage roof repair can mean replacing lifted or missing shingles, resealing loose tabs and resetting bent flashing so water runs off the way it should.
Widespread hail damage across several roof planes is a different job. In that case an insurance claim roof replacement may be the result, with the old roof torn off and a new one installed. We work with shingle, metal, slate and tile, so the new roof can match what your home had before the storm.
Our roof repair in Leander page covers smaller fixes, and our roof replacement in Leander page explains a full tear-off. Every roofing job we complete carries a 7-year labor warranty.
What Should You Do Right After a Storm?
A few simple steps after a storm protect your home and make the claim easier to document. Stay off the roof, since wet or damaged shingles are slippery and a fall is a far bigger problem than a leak. Take photos of anything you can see safely from the ground, such as dented gutters, torn screens or shingles in the yard.
Inside, place a bucket under any drip and move furniture away from wet spots. Note the date of the storm and keep any receipts for emergency cleanup. Your policy sets its own rules and deadlines for reporting damage, so read it or call your insurance agent if you are unsure.
Then call (737) 231-3564 to schedule a free inspection. A documented report gives you facts to share with your insurer instead of guesses.
What Affects Your Cost on a Storm Damage Claim?
Your out-of-pocket cost on roof insurance claims in Leander, TX depends mostly on your policy. The deductible is set by your insurance company and written in your policy. The insurer decides which damage is covered after its adjuster reviews the roof.
Other factors include the size and pitch of the roof, the roofing material, and any damage to decking, vents or gutters found during the work. If you choose an upgrade the policy does not cover, such as a different material, that difference is yours to pay. We explain every line of the quote, with no hidden costs or surprise add-ons, before any work starts.

Storm Claim Questions
Questions About Roof Insurance Claims
Does homeowners insurance cover hail damage to a roof?
Many homeowners policies cover sudden hail and wind damage, but coverage depends on your own policy, its deductible and its terms. Your insurance company decides what is covered after its adjuster reviews the roof. A free inspection from The Kerusso Roofing & Construction gives you photos and notes to share, so you can decide whether filing a claim makes sense.
Should I call my insurance company or a roofer first?
Many homeowners call a roofer first, because a free inspection shows whether there is storm damage worth reporting. If we find functional damage, you file the claim with your insurer and we submit our damage report to the adjuster. If the damage is minor or only cosmetic, you can decide with the facts in hand. Check your policy for reporting deadlines.
What is the difference between functional and cosmetic roof damage?
Functional damage weakens how the roof keeps water out, such as cracked shingles, heavy granule loss or broken seals and flashing. Cosmetic damage changes how the roof looks without affecting how it performs, such as a shallow dent in a metal vent cap. Our damage report separates the two so your adjuster can see which findings affect the roof's protection.
Will you meet the insurance adjuster at my home?
Yes, when it is needed. After we submit the damage report, we can meet your adjuster on site and walk through the damage we documented with photos and notes. That visit helps make sure covered damage is included in the review. The adjuster and your insurance company still make the final decision on what your policy pays for.
Is the storm damage inspection really free?
Yes. The roof damage inspection is free, and so is the estimate for any repair or replacement that follows. You get a clear picture of the roof's condition with photos and notes, and there is no charge if the inspection finds nothing worth claiming. Call (737) 231-3564, Monday through Friday, 7am to 7pm, to schedule a visit.
