Precedent from neighbors' approved claims on the same era of roof carries weight at reinspection.
Start the HOA approval the day the claim is filed; the roofer can't schedule the install until both the carrier and the committee say yes.
Roofers cannot legally pay or waive your deductible in Texas — a 'free roof' pitch is a fraud red flag, not a deal.

How it works
Subdivision claims benefit from precedent: if the carrier already approved the same model house two doors down, that's persuasive at reinspection. Builder-grade shingle from this era rarely has a manufacturer warranty worth invoking, so the insurance route is usually the only route.
From aerial measurement of your specific roof, the home's age (built in the 1980s–90s), and what you tell us. It's a number for your house, not an average for the neighborhood.
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.
