Roofing in Gunter, specifically
The Gunter roofing picture has its own character, and it shapes how we work here. Much of Gunter’s housing stock is new enough that its original builder-grade roofs are only now meeting their first serious hail cycles. First storms on builder-spec shingles are where a lot of Grayson County owners discover what was actually installed over their heads. The local conversations that follow are predictable and worth having early: what the builder’s workmanship coverage does and doesn’t survive, whether the first insurance claim is the moment to upgrade to Class 4 impact-rated shingles (usually yes, since the premium discount math works hardest here), and how HOA architectural standards shape material choices in newer communities.
Our crews work Gunter alongside Van Alstyne, Dallas and Fort Worth, so scheduling draws on the whole nearby footprint rather than a single route.

Hail near Gunter
Reported hail is less frequent around Gunter: NOAA lists 5 days since 2006 with hail one inch or larger within 5 miles. Fewer reports can also reflect fewer storm spotters in smaller communities, so a quiet record is not a guarantee. Hail that size was reported in 5 of the last 20 years. The largest stones on record nearby measured 2.5 inches (tennis ball size) on June 23, 2023.
