Straight-line winds ahead of DFW storm fronts lift shingle edges, break sealant bonds, and tear tabs off entirely. Wind damage repair in Allen addresses both the visible damage and the broken seals you cannot see from the ground.
STORM TRIAGE
What do you need help with right now?
Pick the door that matches your situation. It routes you to the right person on the team, and every path starts with a free, documented look at the roof.
Texas law requires homeowners to pay their insurance deductible.
Cedar Crest does not waive or absorb deductibles. If anyone offers to, walk away.
It puts your claim at risk and may be illegal. We document damage, provide estimates,
and meet your adjuster on-site to answer construction questions. We are not a public
adjuster and do not interpret your policy or negotiate claim value.
A wind-lifted shingle that looks fine from the street has often lost the seal that keeps the next storm out. After significant gusts in Allen, missing tabs and lifted edges are worth a documented look, and we photograph every one we find. Wind is also a covered peril on most homeowner policies, so the record matters. Repairs come with a free written estimate. We will explain the damage to your adjuster, but we are not a public adjuster, and your deductible is never waived under Texas law.
Wind and Hail Together on Allen Roofs
Wind damage in Allen often arrives with storms that also drop hail. Within 6 miles of the city there have been 27 days of hail an inch or larger since 2006, 12 of them golf-ball size or larger, and a record 4.5-inch stone on March 24, 2019. A shingle weakened by hail loses its grip faster in the next strong wind, so we check for both.
Housing age plays in as well. With 66 percent of Allen homes built from 1980 through 2009, many roofs have sealant strips that have spent years in the sun, and aged seals release more easily. Wind repair crews also serve Collin County neighbors Fairview and Lucas.

We don't waive deductibles; nobody legally can. Texas law requires
homeowners to pay their insurance deductible (Tex. Ins. Code ch. 707). If a roofer offers
to "cover" or "absorb" yours, walk away. It puts your claim at risk and may be a felony
for the contractor.
We document damage, provide repair and replacement estimates, and meet your
adjuster on-site to answer construction questions. We are not a public adjuster
and do not interpret your insurance policy or negotiate claim value on your behalf.
Common questions about wind damage repair in Allen
What wind speed damages a roof in Allen?
It depends on the shingle rating, age, and condition. Aging shingles lose the sealant bond that gives them wind resistance, so gusts a new roof shrugs off can strip an older one.
Is wind damage covered by insurance?
Wind is a covered peril on most homeowner policies. The same documentation logic as hail applies: inspect, document with photos, then decide about a claim with real information.
How do I spot wind damage from the ground?
Missing tabs, shingles in the yard, and lifted edges that catch afternoon shadow. The seal damage that matters needs an on-roof look, and ours is free.
Will this work void our builder's warranty in Allen?
Properly documented work doesn't, and our written findings and scopes are built to keep your builder-warranty file intact. What actually endangers coverage is undocumented storm patching, which we don't do.
