Hail Damage Roof Replacement in Plano, Texas

A Plano, Texas homeowner filed a hail claim with USAA after hailstorm impacts left the roof compromised. Firefighter Roofing completed a full replacement in one day, installing a new shingle system and upgrading ventilation to protect the home from future weather in Plano.

Project At-a-Glance

• Roof size: 55 squares (rounded from 56) ≈ 5,500 sq ft
• Shingle: CertainTeed Weatherwood
• Insurance: USAA (hail damage)
• Duration: One-day replacement
• Ventilation: Replaced 7 turbine vents
• City: Plano, Texas

Challenge: Widespread hail impact across a large roof

Hail fractured shingles and opened pathways for wind-driven rain across multiple slopes. The 56-square roof required a tightly coordinated plan to remove, dry-in, and re-shingle within a single day while maintaining site cleanliness and protecting landscaping in Plano.

Solution: One-day tear-off, Weatherwood shingle system, and ventilation upgrade

Firefighter Roofing staged crews and materials for a same-day turnaround, ensuring the home stayed protected from start to finish. The team aligned with the USAA-approved hail scope to deliver a clean, durable roofing system that complements neighborhood aesthetics in Plano.

• Removed existing roofing down to the deck; inspected substrate and addressed localized deck issues as needed.
• Installed self-sealing underlayment at eaves and other vulnerable transitions for secondary moisture protection.
• Installed synthetic underlayment and appropriate flashings at penetrations, sidewalls, and valleys for reliable water shedding.
• Installed new CertainTeed Weatherwood shingles with proper nailing, stagger, and ridge treatment for uniform appearance and strength.
• Replaced 7 turbine vents to support consistent attic airflow and help manage heat buildup and moisture.
• Completed final detail work, magnetic nail sweep, and thorough property cleanup before sign-off.

Result: Strong weather defense and balanced attic airflow

The new roof eliminated hail-damaged materials and restored a consistent, watertight surface. Upgraded turbine ventilation supports healthier attic conditions, which can contribute to shingle longevity and indoor comfort. The homeowner gained peace of mind with a full replacement completed in one day, and the fresh Weatherwood finish provides curb appeal that fits Plano neighborhoods.

Trust & Proof: Insurance-approved scope and brand-name materials

This reroof followed a USAA hail-damage claim and used brand-name shingles installed to manufacturer-aligned practices. The coordinated tear-off, detailed flashing work, and matched ventilation package provide a clear, verifiable upgrade from the storm-damaged roof.
