Labor and permits
Before you sign, ask a Texas crew for proof of insurance, a local street address and whether your city needs a permit. Permit rules are set city by city, so call your city's building office.
Texas law does set rules for storm work. Contracts for $1,000 or more that involve an insurance settlement must include a notice that you must pay your deductible. See Texas Department of Insurance.
Hail and code rules
Texas bans contractors from waiving, rebating or absorbing your deductible. It also bars a roofer from acting as your public adjuster on the claim. Report violations to the Texas Attorney General at 800-621-0508.
Hail is the big local risk, so impact-rated shingles are worth pricing. Ask your insurer for any premium credit in writing before you pick a shingle. Rules are from Texas Department of Insurance.
