Your neighbors aren&#8217;t getting new roofs because they felt like it \u2014 insurance approved their claims because their roofs sustained documented damage. If their roofs were damaged, yours likely was too.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Should_You_Get_an_Inspection\"><\/span>Should You Get an Inspection?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Yes. If multiple homes on your street are getting replaced, the same storm hit your roof. Even if you don&#8217;t see obvious damage from the ground, hail damage is usually invisible without a roof-level inspection. Granule loss, bruising, and hairline cracks don&#8217;t show up from the yard.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Timing_Factor\"><\/span>The Timing Factor<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Most Texas homeowner&#8217;s insurance policies have a deadline for filing storm damage claims \u2014 typically one year from the date of the event.
