Recent McLendon-Chisholm storms

New-build roofs and storm exposure
Many McLendon-Chisholm homes are only a few years old, and builder roofs are often installed quickly to the minimum standard. After a storm we look for hail bruising and lifted tabs, and we also check for installation shortcuts like missing drip edge, a poorly sealed starter strip and too few attic vents. Those shortcuts can make storm damage worse. On acreage lots with long exposed ridges, wind-rated ridge caps and the high-wind nailing pattern are worth the small upgrade.
McLendon-Chisholm neighborhoods
Sonoma Verde
Sonoma Verde is a large master plan near SH 205 with lots of about 7,200 to 20,000 sq ft, plus a planned Sonoma Verde East expansion. Most roofs are young builder installs, so the storm question here is bruising, not age.
Older and acreage subdivisions
Subdivisions on the city's land-use map, such as Winding Ridge, Kensington, Pheasant Hill and Savannah Hill, along with acreage tracts, have fewer windbreaks. Fences and outbuildings tend to get damaged along with the roof.
Filing a hail or wind claim in McLendon-Chisholm
Several 2022 and 2026 storms hit McLendon-Chisholm. If your roof was patched after one of them, tell us so we can tell older damage from new. We're a roofing contractor, not a public adjuster or attorney; your insurance company decides coverage. Texas law (Business & Commerce Code §27.02) prohibits contractors from waiving or rebating your deductible, so we never offer to.
- Look from the ground, not the ladder. Check gutters, downspouts, window screens and the A/C unit for dents; those are clues the roof was hit too.
- Book a free inspection. We send you dated photos and a straight answer on whether there's claimable damage.
- Know your policy. Confirm your deductible and how long you have to report damage before you file.
- Meet the adjuster together. We'll walk the roof with your adjuster and show every documented hit.
- Approve the scope and the start date. We order materials, pull the permit and schedule the install.
