Hail season hiring rules for Katy homeowners

Composition shingles across master-planned Katy subdivisions take granule loss and bruise damage that is easy to miss from the curb. A legitimate inspection documents slopes with photos, explains whether repair or replacement is warranted, and never asks you to sign an Assignment of Benefits before you understand the scope. Full checklist: how to choose a licensed Houston roofing contractor.

Red flags after a Katy hail event: out-of-state plates, pressure to “file today or lose coverage,” no local street address, refusal to provide workers’ compensation certificates, or a crew that will not say who employs them.

What “local” should mean for a Katy job

  • Physical office or yard in Greater Houston you can drive to (not only a marketing phone number).
  • Manufacturer status such as GAF Master Elite or CertainTeed Select ShingleMaster — stated publicly, then verified.
  • Written warranty language that names the installing company, not a disappearing brand.
  • Clear answer on whether work is employee crews or day-labor subcontractors.

Roofers with Greater Houston / west-side service signals

Ask each firm for current Katy / Fort Bend / west Harris availability and a certificate of insurance before signing.

When a roof leak becomes a water-damage call

If ceilings are wet or insulation is saturated, tarp and roof repair alone are not enough — call water damage restoration for extraction and drying, then consider an inspection-only mold assessor if cavities stay damp.
