Why San Antonio Needs Reliable Hail Repair
Recent hail hit the East Side — and San Antonio has a long history of costly events
2.5" HAIL
On the night of September 11, 2026, a severe thunderstorm produced hail up to 2.5 inches (baseball-sized) near Converse, with golf-ball sized stones reported in the Paloma subdivision and 1–1.5 inch hail near Kirby, China Grove, and St. Hedwig. The storm damaged vehicles, shattered windows, and affected roofs and siding on San Antonio’s East Side. This follows the historic April 12, 2016 event that produced up to 4.5-inch hail near Helotes and caused an estimated $1.36 billion in damage — still among the costliest hailstorms in Texas history.

What This Covers
Hail damage repair for San Antonio roofs
Hail damage repair addresses the impact left by hailstones — bruised or fractured shingles, widespread granule loss, dented flashing and vents, and compromised underlayment that may not be visible from the ground. In San Antonio’s high-frequency hail environment, accurate documentation against a specific storm date and proper restoration are essential. If wind was also part of your storm, see our Wind Damage Repair in San Antonio, TX page, or for the full range of storm-related services, our Storm Restoration in San Antonio, TX overview.
Signs You Need This
How to recognize hail damage on a San Antonio roof
Hail damage is often subtle from street level. These are the indicators inspectors look for after a San Antonio hail event.
Soft or bruised spots on the shingle surface
Hail compresses the mat. The roof can still look mostly intact while the protective layer is already weakened.
Granules collecting in gutters, valleys, or at downspouts
A sudden increase in loose granules after a storm is one of the most reliable surface signs of hail impact.
Circular dents in soft metal
Vents, flashing, ridge caps, and gutters often show clear impact marks that correspond to roof-surface damage.
Exposed or fractured fiberglass mat
Where the granule coating has been driven off, the underlying mat becomes vulnerable to UV and water.
New interior ceiling stains after rain
Water that reaches the attic or living space usually means the outer roofing system has already been breached.
- If left unaddressed: hail-bruised shingles continue to lose granules and fail faster. Small openings can become active leaks on the next rain. After the September 11, 2026 East Side hail event — or any documented severe hail producing 1.5-inch or larger stones — a professional inspection is the practical next step even without a visible leak.
Rapid Response
Same-day inspection for active hail damage. If there's an active leak, we prioritize temporary tarping to stop water intrusion before doing the full assessment.
Document & Coordinate Claim
Photo-documented hail impact report tied to the specific storm date, material selection — including whether a Class 4 impact-resistant shingle upgrade makes sense — and coordination with your insurance adjuster if you're filing a claim.
Execute
Professional repair or replacement using manufacturer-certified materials, scheduled around your timeline once the claim or scope is approved.
Verify & Warranty
Final walkthrough, quality check, and warranty registration so the repair is documented and covered going forward.
Insurance & Claims
What to expect from the insurance side
How we work with your claim
We document hail damage against the specific storm date, provide a report your adjuster can work from, and can meet the adjuster on-site if you'd like a second set of eyes during the inspection.
What's typically covered
Sudden damage from a specific, dated hailstorm is usually covered under standard Texas homeowners policies, minus your wind/hail deductible.
What's usually not covered
Damage from long-term wear, deferred maintenance, or age-related shingle deterioration generally isn't treated as hail damage by insurers.
Class 4 shingle upgrade
Many insurers discount ongoing premiums for impact-resistant Class 4 shingles. If you're replacing a hail-damaged roof anyway, it's worth asking whether upgrading pencils out over time.
- Your wind/hail deductible is often separate from your regular homeowners deductible, and is frequently a percentage of your home's insured value — typically 1% to 2% — rather than a flat dollar amount. Check your policy's declarations page, or we can help you figure out which deductible applies before you file. We don't publish fixed repair prices here since cost depends on roof size, materials, and damage extent; your inspection includes a specific quote.
Frequently Asked Questions
Hail damage repair in San Antonio — common questions
Most hail damage is not obvious from the ground. Look for granule loss in gutters, soft or bruised spots on shingles, dents in metal vents or flashing, and new interior ceiling stains after rain. A professional inspection is the only reliable way to confirm impact and document it for insurance.
Most Texas homeowners policies cover sudden hail damage, minus your deductible (typically $500–$5,000 or a percentage of the dwelling coverage). Wear-and-tear or age-related issues are usually excluded. Proper documentation tied to a specific storm date is critical for a successful claim.
Most single-family hail repairs can be completed in one to two days once materials and the insurance claim are approved. Full roof replacements after major hail events typically take two to three days depending on roof size, material availability, and weather.
Yes. On the night of September 11, 2026, severe thunderstorms produced hail up to 2.5 inches (baseball-sized) near Converse, with golf-ball sized stones in the Paloma subdivision and 1–1.5 inch hail near Kirby, China Grove, and St. Hedwig. The storm damaged vehicles, shattered windows, and affected roofs and siding on San Antonio’s East Side. It follows the historic April 2016 event that produced up to 4.5-inch hail and roughly $1.36 billion in damage.
Many San Antonio homeowners, especially in high-frequency corridors like Stone Oak, Shavano Park, and the northwest side, upgrade to Class 4 impact-resistant shingles after repeated hail events. These materials can reduce future damage risk and may qualify for insurance discounts depending on the carrier.
No. Most hail damage inspections are performed entirely on the roof and exterior. The inspector can walk you through findings by phone or in person and provide photo documentation either way.
