Tarrant County gets the most hail reports in the area
Searching for roofers Tarrant County homeowners can check up on? Start with the hail record.
National Weather Service preliminary reports show 457 hail reports of 1 inch or larger in Tarrant County from 2015 through September 2026. That is the most of the five DFW counties in the data. The others are Collin, Dallas, Denton and Rockwall.
Tarrant has led all five every year from 2023 through 2026:
| Year | Tarrant County hail reports, 1 inch or larger |
|---|---|
| 2023 | 57 |
| 2024 | 80 |
| 2025 | 75 |
| 2026, through late September | 52 |
Spring is the busy season. March through June account for 422 of the county's 457 reports, and April alone has 154.
These counts measure reported hail. They rise with population and with the number of spotters, and they say nothing about one specific roof. That takes an inspection.

The rules change at every city line
Texas does not license roofing contractors at the state level. Permits and contractor registration are set by each city, and the four cities we serve here do not agree.
| City | Re-roof permit rule | City page |
|---|---|---|
| Fort Worth | Not required for shingle-only work. Required when decking is replaced. | Fort Worth roofing |
| Arlington | Required when work covers more than 10% of the roof area. | Arlington roofing |
| Grapevine | Required for a residential re-roof. | Grapevine roofing |
| Southlake | Required for a residential re-roof. | Southlake roofing |
So the same job can need a permit on one side of a city limit and not on the other. A full replacement in Southlake or Grapevine always starts with a permit. A shingle-only replacement in Fort Worth does not, unless decking comes out.
All four cities require contractors to register. We pull the permit wherever your city requires one, and we list it on your quote. Where we could not verify a rule or fee on a city source, we confirm it with the city before work starts.
Each city page has the verified details, including fence rules.
Four cities, four different housing stocks
Census figures for 2020 to 2024 show how different these places are.
| City | Population | Median home value | Owner share | Median year built |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fort Worth | 963,194 | $303,000 | 57.0% | 1994 |
| Arlington | 397,742 | $304,700 | 54.3% | 1986 |
| Grapevine | 51,139 | $493,100 | 52.7% | 1993 |
| Southlake | 31,137 | $1,014,500 | 94.6% | 1997 |
Arlington has the oldest homes of the four, with a median year built of 1986. Southlake has the highest home values and the highest share of owners. Fort Worth is by far the largest.
We do not use one script for all of them. We inspect the roof you have and document it in photos.

Storm work, by the book
After hail, the roles are simple. You file the claim. Your insurer decides coverage and the amount. We build the roof.
We inspect and document storm damage with photos and measurements. We give you a written, itemized estimate you can share with your insurer. No payment is due until materials are delivered and work begins.

Start with photos of your own roof
A photo report costs you nothing and is yours to keep. Book an inspection and pick a time that works for you.
