- 2.Tarp active leaks. JRH runs emergency tarping within 2 hours for Lantana addresses to stop interior water damage before it compounds.

Lantana Hail Damage FAQs
Will my insurance cover a hail-damaged roof in Lantana?+
Texas homeowner policies written by State Farm, USAA, Allstate and other major carriers cover hail damage as a named peril. JRH documents the damage with photo evidence, matches the scope to Xactimate line items, and manages the adjuster meeting so the claim pays the full replacement cost rather than a depreciated cash value.
How soon after a Lantana hailstorm should I get a roof inspection?+
Within 7 to 14 days. Texas insurance policies generally impose a one-year claim filing deadline from the date of loss, but adjusters treat older claims with more scrutiny. Rapid documentation also prevents secondary interior damage from unreported leaks. JRH targets a 2-hour response window inside Lantana.
What hail size causes roof damage in Lantana?+
Hail of 1 inch diameter (roughly a quarter) and larger typically causes functional damage to asphalt shingles, with 1.5 inch and larger causing visible impact. Lantana recorded baseball-sized (up to 2.75 inches) hail on 2024-03-14. Even smaller hail can cause granule loss that shortens roof life.
Should I get a roof inspection before filing a Lantana hail claim?+
Yes. A contractor inspection first establishes whether the damage is functional (covered) or purely cosmetic (sometimes excluded by endorsement). JRH provides a free pre-claim inspection with drone imagery and a damage map before the adjuster is scheduled, which prevents wasted claims and improves approval rates.
Can I choose any roofer in Lantana, or must I use one the insurance company recommends?+
Texas law gives Lantana homeowners full freedom to select any licensed contractor. Insurance preferred vendor lists are optional for the homeowner. JRH Construction is GAF Master Elite certified (top 2% of U.S. roofers), SAM.gov registered, and holds $10 million plus bonding capacity serving all of Denton County.
What does a complete Lantana hail claim roof replacement cost?+
The homeowner pays the policy deductible (typically 1 percent to 2 percent of dwelling coverage or a flat wind and hail deductible). Insurance pays the balance at replacement cost value after the final invoice. Typical Lantana deductible exposure is $2,000 to $5,000 on a $250,000 to $500,000 insured dwelling.
