This is the Devine page for hail damage roof claim. The short version: you want to know if the hail actually damaged the roof and to get the claim approved if so, and you can have it without a salesperson at the door.

Wind is the co-equal peril here; South Texas squall lines lift shingles as often as hail bruises them. Real estate activity drives a lot of the roofing here — pre-listing inspections, buyer credits, and insurance-driven replacements right after closing.
What it costs in Devine: no cost to inspect; the roofer's incentive is a fully scoped claim, and yours is a new roof for the price of your deductible — both align when the damage is real.
Texas hail claims typically follow a replacement-cost policy, but many carriers have moved to a roof surface payment schedule that depreciates by age — check your declarations page for 'RSPS' or 'ACV roof' language.
How it works
Under a replacement cost policy, no — the recoverable depreciation is only paid when the work is done. Under an ACV policy, you get the depreciated value and can do what you want, but it won't buy a new roof.
Test squares: a 10x10 foot area on each slope is chalked and hail strikes are counted. Most carriers use a threshold (often 8+ per square) to approve a slope. Your roofer should do the same count before the adjuster arrives.

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