How much does storm damage roof repair cost in El Paso?
It depends on the damage. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso prices each job after a free inspection, and the written estimate reaches you within 48 hours of it. The extent of the wind or hail damage and your roof type set the price.
Should I fix my roof before the insurance company sees it?
Cover it, then wait. The National Association of Insurance Commissioners says to tarp roof holes and hold off on permanent repairs until you’ve talked with your insurer. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso does emergency tarping for open roofs.
Does insurance pay for storm damage to a roof?
Your policy decides. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso doesn’t need a claim to inspect your roof. If you file one, we document the damage and write the estimate, and your insurance company makes the call.
Can I cancel a roofing contract in Texas?
Sometimes. Texas lets you cancel by midnight of the third business day on sales over $25 solicited and agreed away from the seller’s place of business, with exceptions. A storm claim or denial adds no three-day right. Lifetime Roofing of El Paso’s estimate is in writing, so read it first.

What decides repair or replacement
How far the wind or hail damage runs.
The type of roof you have.
What your insurer decides, if you’ve filed a claim.
What we don’t do on a claim
We don’t negotiate claims.
We don’t act as an adjuster.
We don’t make deductible offers.
Texas law bars a contractor from acting as a public adjuster on a house where it does or may do the work. The Texas Department of Insurance says to report deductible waiver offers to the Attorney General at 800-621-0508. Texas has no state roofer license, so ask any roofer for proof of insurance.
Wind leaves lifted tabs, creases, tears, blow-offs, and loose flashing. A shingle holds on by its seal strip, and wind resistance drops sharply once that bond fails.
Hail
Soft hits, at random
A hail hit on a shingle feels soft, like a bruise on an apple. Hail also leaves matching dents on vents, gutters, and A/C units.
Monsoon
June 15 to Sept. 30
Monsoon rain can get in where a storm left the roof open. Water may already be in the underlayment, deck, or insulation before the repair starts.
Sun and heat
26 daysat 100 degrees in an average year
Heat speeds the surface cracking called alligatoring, which isn’t storm damage. Blisters are firm, with no dents around them, and granule loss alone isn’t proof of hail.
