Hail Damage Roof Replacement Approved Through Appraisal in McKinney, TX

After a severe hailstorm impacted a residential property in McKinney, TX, the homeowner filed a claim with Allstate Insurance for roof damage. The 49-square asphalt shingle roof showed clear signs of hail impact, but the claim was initially denied—and denied again after a re-inspection. Through persistence and proper documentation, the claim proceeded to appraisal, where it was ultimately approved for full replacement. Our team completed the entire roofing and gutter project in just one day, restoring both protection and peace of mind.

Challenge: Multiple Insurance Denials Before Appraisal Approval

The roof had sustained hail damage significant enough to compromise shingle integrity and long-term performance. However, the homeowner faced a frustrating process when the claim was initially denied by Allstate Insurance and then denied again after a re-inspection.

Navigating the appraisal process required detailed documentation, professional assessment, and clear evidence of storm-related damage. Beyond the insurance hurdles, the roof also needed ventilation improvements to enhance attic airflow and long-term system performance. Coordinating a large 49-square roof replacement efficiently—while also upgrading ventilation and installing new gutters—required precise planning.

Solution: Full Roofing System Replacement with Ventilation and Drainage Upgrades

Once the appraisal process resulted in claim approval, we moved quickly to restore the property. The existing roofing materials were removed and replaced with CertainTeed Landmark shingles in Moire Black, delivering both durability and a bold, dimensional appearance that enhanced curb appeal in McKinney, TX.

Key steps included:

• Complete tear-off of the existing 49-square roofing system
• Installation of CertainTeed Landmark Moire Black architectural shingles
• Upgrade from 750 box vents to 12″ turbine vents for improved attic ventilation
• Installation of 100 linear feet of 5″ aluminum gutters
• Installation of 91 linear feet of 2″x3″ downspouts
• Installation of 100 linear feet of 5″ leaf screens for debris protection
• Full jobsite cleanup and debris haul-off

Upgrading from static box vents to 12-inch turbine vents significantly improved airflow, helping regulate attic temperatures and reduce moisture buildup—an important enhancement for homes in McKinney, TX.

Result: Insurance Victory and a High-Performance Roofing System

The newly installed 49-square roofing system provides durable hail resistance and long-term weather protection. The CertainTeed Landmark shingles in Moire Black give the home a striking, modern look while delivering dependable performance.

Improved ventilation supports better attic airflow, which can contribute to energy efficiency and overall roof longevity. The addition of new aluminum gutters and leaf screens enhances water management, helping protect the foundation and landscaping.

Most importantly, the homeowner achieved a successful outcome after two claim denials. The appraisal approval and one-day installation restored confidence, security, and pride in the home—knowing it is now properly protected against future storms in McKinney, TX.
