Roofing Contractor in The Colony, TX

Hail, storm and housing conditions in The Colony, TX

The Colony sits on the east shore of Lewisville Lake, and storms crossing open water hit the city with wind-driven rain and hail. Lakefront roofs take noticeably more wind than the inland streets, and hail damage here tends to show first on the south and west slopes.

The Colony built out mostly in the 1980s and 1990s with brick traditional homes, plus newer infill and lakefront properties. Roofs are mostly architectural shingles at moderate to steep pitches, with some complex multi-level designs near the water.

We roof The Colony, including the lakefront neighborhoods, Stewart Peninsula, the streets off Main Street and Paige Road, and the borders with Frisco, Plano, and Lewisville.

The Colony requires a permit for roof replacement and inspects the work. Several subdivisions enforce shingle color standards.

Our The Colony inspections start at the edges. Wind and hail both attack perimeter shingles, ridge caps, and the rake boards first, and that is where the first water gets in after a storm. From there we check the soft metal — vents, gutter caps, and chimney flashing — because dents there tell you how hard the hail actually hit the shingle field. On the roof itself we look for bruised mats, fresh granule loss at the downspouts, and any tab that will not seal back down. Everything gets photographed with a written note of which slope it came from, so you and your adjuster are looking at the same evidence rather than a verbal description.
