Hail affects commercial membranes differently than shingles: fractures and punctures invisible from a distance shorten system life and complicate warranties if left undocumented. After hail hits Wylie, a documented assessment protects both the asset and the claim window.
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.
After a hailstorm crosses a Wylie business property, the first job is a clear record of what the roof took. Cedar Crest Roofing documents commercial hail damage with photos, writes up a free estimate, and meets your adjuster on-site to answer construction questions about the roof system, its flashing and its penetrations. We are not a public adjuster, so we do not interpret your policy or negotiate the value of the claim. We also never waive a deductible, because Texas law prohibits it. Our role is the construction side of the claim, handled the same way on commercial buildings as on our residential storm work.
Hail Records Behind Commercial Claims in Wylie
Hail is not a rare event for Wylie building owners. Since 2006, the area within 6 miles of the city has logged 29 days with hail an inch or larger, and 10 of those days brought golf-ball-size stones or bigger. The largest recorded stone measured 5.25 inches on April 11, 2016. That frequency means a commercial roof may carry damage from more than one storm, which is why dated photo documentation after each event matters when a claim is filed. Hail of an inch or more has fallen in 12 separate years across the last two decades, so a documented baseline is worth having before the next season arrives.
Wylie sits in Collin County, and while its housing is fairly young, with a median year built of 2006, commercial roofs face the same storms regardless of age. Our crews also handle commercial hail documentation in Murphy and Sachse.

How old Wylie homes are

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 commercial hail damage in Wylie
My Wylie building took hail. What first?
A documented assessment, promptly. Membrane hail damage is often invisible from the ground, and documentation while damage is fresh protects your claim rights.
Does hail damage void my roof warranty?
Storm damage is typically an insurance matter rather than a warranty one. Still, undocumented damage can complicate future warranty claims, which is another reason to document now.
Do you work with commercial adjusters?
We meet adjusters on-site, answer construction questions, and provide documented estimates. We do not interpret policies or negotiate claim value, since that is the legal line in Texas.
Will this work void our builder's warranty in Wylie?
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.
