Get a written quoteOlder homes have older electrical and plumbing penetrations through the roof; replacing the boots and flashings on all of them is cheap during a re-roof and expensive later. Lower pitches on mid-century homes rule out some products and make ice-and-water shield in the valleys non-negotiable. This is the edge of the hail belt: storms are less frequent than up the I-35 corridor, but the ones that arrive are the same size.
On cost: free, with no contract required — that's the whole point.
Coastal counties (Chatham, Bryan, Effingham) carry separate named-storm and hurricane deductibles, similar in concept to Florida's, that only apply once the National Hurricane Center issues a watch or warning for the area.
How it works
Because if there's damage, the roofer wants the job. If there isn't, you've lost nothing and gained a documented baseline. Just don't sign a contingency agreement to get one.
A contract that locks you into using that roofer if the claim is approved. It's legal in Texas, but you don't need one to get an inspection or file a claim, and signing one before the claim is scoped gives away your leverage.

College Park is inside the everyday service radius, so there's no travel surcharge and no "we'll be in the area next month."
