Cedar Park gets both hail and sudden straight-line wind. Before dawn on September 14, 2023, an emergency manager reported microburst wind damage in the Cedar Grove neighborhood to the National Weather Service: fences and power lines down, and shingles ripped off.
Hail has hit the city several times since 2021. NWS storm reports show:
Wind damage usually shows up first along ridges, rakes and roof edges. Hail damage is easier to miss. Watch for:
The City of Cedar Park's "Do I Need a Permit?" page lists non-structural roof covering among projects that do not require a permit. The city says its lists are not comprehensive and asks residents to call 512-401-5100 to confirm what a project needs before work starts. That call matters most if decking, framing or the roof structure is involved.
HOA rules are a separate step. If you live in an HOA, read its architectural guidelines or ask for approval before switching shingle color or style. Texas Property Code Section 202.011 keeps an HOA from blocking shingles designed to be wind and hail resistant when they resemble the subdivision's approved shingles, are of equal or better quality, and match the surrounding homes.
We inspect before we quote. You get 100+ photos of your roof and a plain explanation of what they show. When a repair will do the job, we recommend the repair. When replacement is the right call, the photos show you why.
Pricing reflects your roof's real size, pitch, layers and materials, and you have it in writing before work begins. We leave the jobsite clean. Each new roof comes with a workmanship warranty matched to the length of the shingle manufacturer's warranty. Repairs are not covered by it. Read more on our warranty page.

Cedar Park's "Do I Need a Permit?" page lists non-structural roof covering as work that does not require a permit. The city also says the list is not comprehensive and asks you to call 512-401-5100 before starting any work. If the job includes structural repairs, such as replacing rafters or decking, confirm with the city first.
