What to do after a storm hits your Argyle home
- Check for danger first: downed lines, gas smell, or a sagging ceiling. Stay clear and call the right utility.
- Photograph the roof, windows, siding, fences, and every wet spot inside, with dates.
- Catch drips with buckets and move valuables away from leaks.
- Call (940) 274-9880 for tarping and water removal, then call your insurance company.
- Keep receipts for anything you buy to prevent more damage.
Most policies expect you to protect the home from further damage. A tarp on the roof and dry equipment inside show your adjuster you did that.

Argyle properties
Why storms hit Argyle homes hard
Argyle is a town of detached homes, many of them large two-stories. A big roof with many valleys, skylights, and vents has more seams where hail and wind can open a path for rain.
Acreage owners have more to check. Barns, shops, and guest houses can take hail and wind damage too. We look at every building with water inside, not just the main house.

Storm damage claims and cost factors
Wind and hail damage are generally covered under standard homeowners policies, subject to your deductible. Many Texas policies carry a separate, often higher, wind and hail deductible, so check yours. Rain that comes in through a storm-created opening is often covered. Rising water from outside is flood, which needs a separate flood policy.
Cost depends on how much of the roof is open, how long rain came in, whether insulation and ceilings got wet, and how many rooms need drying. Our insurance claim coverage estimator can help you plan. We work directly with your insurance company and provide photos, moisture maps, and drying logs.
Keep temporary and permanent repairs separate in your records. Tarping, board-up, and drying are emergency steps that protect the home. Roof replacement, window replacement, and interior rebuild come later, after the adjuster has seen the damage. Save every invoice, and do not sign over your claim to any contractor who knocks on your door after a storm.
After any big hail event, walk your property even if nothing is dripping yet. Look for dented gutters and vents, cracked skylights, and granules washed into downspouts. Check ceilings under valleys and around chimneys over the next few rains, since slow leaks often take weeks to show.
We aim to reach most Argyle homes in about 60 minutes, though big regional storms can stretch arrival times. The dispatcher will tell you honestly what to expect.

FAQ
Storm damage questions
Do you replace roofs?
No. We tarp the roof to stop water and handle the inside of the home. A roofing contractor handles the roof replacement or repair.
Hail hit last spring, but the leak just started. Is it too late?
Not necessarily. Many policies allow claims for some time after a storm, but deadlines vary. Call your insurer, and let us document the water damage now.
What is a wind and hail deductible?
It is a separate deductible for wind and hail losses, often a percentage of your home’s insured value. Check your declarations page to see what applies to you.
Can you tarp at night or in the rain?
We tarp as soon as it is safe. During lightning or high wind we protect the inside first with extraction and containment, then tarp when conditions allow.
Do you check barns and outbuildings after hail?
Yes. If water got into a shop, barn, or guest house, we test and dry it the same way as the main home.
