If it was not, we tell you that too.
Four damage signs on a roof.
Most McKinney damage is invisible from the ground. Here is what we look for during a free hail damage roof inspection — and what you can spot from the driveway.
Dented or bruised shingles
Round soft spots, mat dimples, and visible bruising from hail impact. Best spotted on-roof under raking light.
Pro inspectionGranule loss in gutters
Black asphalt sand collecting in McKinney downspouts and gutters. Drive-by spotable. Indicates wear or impact.
DIY checkDented metal & vents
Impact leaves visible round dents on roof vents, flashing, and gutters. Easy proof of an event for the insurance claim.
Easy spotSoft spots on the deck
Underlying mat damage causes the shingle to feel spongy underfoot. Indicates hidden hail on a roof.
Pro inspectionHail damage is not the same as storm damage.
Wind tears off shingles you can see from the driveway. Hail damage often hides for months — and the claim window can close before the homeowner knows.
The hidden claim.
It bruises the mat, cracks the seal, and shortens the roof life. Most homeowners do not notice until granule loss, interior leaks, or another inspector flags it months later.
- ✓Often invisible from the ground
- ✓Mat bruising and granule loss
- ✓Test-square documentation needed
- ✓1–2 year Texas claim window
- ✓Adjusters routinely under-scope

Most McKinney repair is insurance work.
Texas homeowner's policies cover the repair after the deductible. The catch is the claim itself — adjusters under-scope, evidence fades, and most homeowners do not know the documentation that makes a claim pay fully.
Don and Blake have stood with adjusters on hundreds of DFW hail damage claims. We know the carriers, the adjusters, and the Texas code items that the boilerplate scope leaves off.
- Free pre-claim inspection with written report
- Documentation, photos, drone footage, test squares
- On-roof meeting with your adjuster
- Supplement requests for missed Texas code items
- No deductible collected from any homeowner
Class 4 IR shingles — worth the upgrade in DFW?
For most homeowners, yes.
Class 4 impact-resistant (IR) shingles like the Pinnacle Class 4 line are rated for the hardest strikes. They cost roughly 10–15% more than standard architectural shingles up front. In the DFW belt, the Texas premium discount usually pays the upgrade back in 3–5 years.
Class 4 IR vs standard architectural shingle on a roof.
Most major Texas carriers offer an annual premium discount for verified IR roofs.
In the DFW belt the upgrade usually pays itself back in 3–5 years of saved premium.
Standard manufacturer warranty on the Pinnacle Class 4 IR line we install.
Real numbers for damaged DFW roofs.
Hail damage repair cost depends on scope and whether insurance is involved. Insurance-covered jobs typically come down to your deductible.
Minor repair
Isolated shingle replacement, single-slope flashing fix, vent boot replacement after smaller events.
Mid-scope work
Multi-slope section replacement, valley rebuild, gutter and flashing replacement. Often insurance work.
Partial replacement
One full slope or a major elevation of the roof replaced after concentrated damage.
Full replacement
Widespread damage requires full replacement. Insurance typically covers most of the scope.
Estimates only — not a quote or guarantee. McKinney repair pricing depends on scope, material, and whether the carrier scope covers the work. Every Fireman's Roofing job is quoted individually after the free inspection. Insurance-paid damage jobs typically follow carrier scope plus the deductible.
