The details matter

Your home.
The right roof plan.

Explore the materials, rooflines and property details to discuss before roofing is installed on your new home or addition. Replacement options are available for existing roofs; your provider confirms project fit.

01 / Plan your next roof

Ask what your policy actually covers

Roof coverage depends on the policy and the cause of damage. The Texas Department of Insurance distinguishes replacement-cost coverage from actual-cash-value coverage, which can account for age and wear.

Ask your insurer which terms apply, whether wind or hail has a separate deductible and what documentation is required. An old or worn roof is not automatically an insured loss.

02 / Plan your next roof

Keep evidence and estimates organized

Record the date you noticed the concern, safe photographs and the contractor’s written findings. Keep claim correspondence and the insurer’s estimate with your own project records.

Ask the contractor to separate documented conditions, proposed work and optional upgrades. Ask the insurer how any differences between estimates should be submitted or explained.

Understand the contractor’s role

TDI states that a contractor cannot act as the public insurance adjuster on the same property where it provides or may provide contracting services. A construction proposal should explain the work, not promise a claim settlement.

This website does not adjust, negotiate or handle insurance claims. Direct policy and coverage questions to the insurer or an appropriately licensed professional.

Do not rely on a deductible-waiver promise

TDI warns that Texas contractors cannot offer to waive, rebate or absorb a policyholder’s deductible. Ask your insurer to explain your responsibility and retain payment records.

Check the current TDI guidance linked below. Do not treat a salesperson’s promise as confirmation of coverage or of your final out-of-pocket cost.

Clear answers

Common roofing questions

Will insurance pay for my new roof?

This cannot be determined from a website or a storm date. Ask your insurer about the policy, cause of damage, deductible and required evidence. The contractor can document conditions and quote the work.

Can the roofer waive my deductible?

The Texas Department of Insurance says contractors cannot offer to waive, rebate or absorb a property insurance deductible. Consult its current guidance and ask your insurer about your payment responsibility.

Plan your new roof installation.
