Storm Damage Repair, and Honest Insurance Assistance
We've weathered Kingwood's storms since 1981 - here before and after, not a chaser who shows up once and disappears. We'll tell you straight whether you have a claim.
We Build in Gulf Coast Storms
Northeast Houston sits in an active hail and high-wind corridor, and Kingwood has lived through the worst of it: Harvey's flooding in 2017, the straight-line winds of the 2024 derecho, and Hurricane Beryl in 2024. Every season brings hail, tropical wind and driving rain that find the weak points in a roof - especially the aging builder-grade roofs across villages built in the 1970s through 1990s.
After a storm, the damage isn't always obvious from the ground. Lifted or creased shingles, hail bruising, and compromised flashing can let water in for months before a ceiling stain shows up. A real inspection catches it early - which also matters for your insurance claim, because documented damage is what gets covered.
Signs Your Kingwood Roof Took Storm Damage
Missing or Creased Shingles
High wind lifts and folds shingles or tears them off entirely, leaving the deck exposed to the next rain.
Bruising & Granule Loss
Hail knocks the protective granules off and bruises the mat - damage that shortens the roof's life even when it looks intact.
Ceiling Stains & Attic Moisture
Brown stains, damp insulation or a musty attic mean water is already getting past the roof.
Lifted or Damaged Seals
Wind pulls at flashing and boots around chimneys, vents and skylights - common entry points for leaks.
Granules in the Gutters
Piles of shingle granules washing into the gutters after a storm are an early warning sign of surface damage.
Active Leaks
If water is coming in, we can dry-in or tarp the roof fast to stop further damage while you sort out the claim.
Not sure if it's bad enough to matter? We'll tell you straight.
Get a Free InspectionHow a Storm Damage Insurance Claim Works
Most homeowner policies cover sudden storm damage from wind and hail - but what gets approved comes down to what's documented. Here's how the process actually goes, and where we help. We never push you toward a claim you don't have; if the damage is cosmetic or minor, we'll say so.
Free Inspection
We get on the roof and document every bit of storm damage with photos.
Honest Read
We tell you straight whether you have a claim worth filing - or whether you don't.
You File
You file with your insurer; we hand over clear documentation to back it up.
Adjuster Meeting
We can be there when the adjuster comes out to walk the damage with them.
Repair or Replace
Once the scope is approved, we do the work right - hand-nailed, cleaned up, done.
What to have ready: the date of the storm, photos of any damage or interior leaks, your policy number, and receipts for any emergency work like tarping. The sooner you document and file, the better - some policies have filing windows, and a tarp now prevents a bigger loss later.
Coverage depends on your individual policy and insurer - your agent is the final word on what's covered. We're roofers, not your insurance company; what we do is find and document the damage honestly.

What Kingwood homeowners say about our response
"I called Carl the moment I found the leak. He had someone out the same day, and two days later they were back to repair it - thorough work. Highly recommended."
"Wesco replaced my roof in 2018 and did a great job. Two years later a vent stack came loose - I called Art, and he and Carl sent Raul right over to look at it."
Storm Damage & Insurance Questions
Is the storm inspection free?
Yes. We get on the roof, document any storm damage with photos, and give you an honest read on whether it's worth filing a claim - at no cost.
Does homeowner's insurance cover storm roof damage?
Most homeowner policies cover sudden damage from wind and hail, but what gets approved depends on your specific policy and what's documented. Your agent is the final word on coverage; what we do is find and document the damage clearly so your claim is backed by evidence.
How soon should I act after a storm?
Sooner is better. Some policies have filing windows, and putting a tarp over a breach now prevents a bigger, harder-to-cover loss later. We can inspect quickly and tarp the same day if there's an active leak.
Will you meet with my insurance adjuster?
Yes. We can be on-site when the adjuster comes out to walk the damage together, so nothing legitimate gets missed in the scope.
Do you do emergency tarping?
Yes. If water is getting in, we can dry-in or tarp the roof fast to stop further damage while the claim is sorted out.
Are you a storm chaser?
No. Wesco has been a family-owned Kingwood roofer since 1981. We live here, we're here before and after the storm, and we stand behind the work for the long haul.
