Which storms have hit Leander recently?

If you are trying to work out which storm did the damage, these are the events the National Weather Service has on record for Leander. Dates matter for a claim, so it is worth knowing them.

  • 16 May 2025 — the big one. Spotters measured hail up to three inches across town. Photos with rulers put 2.75-inch stones in Deerbrooke, 2.00-inch in Carneros Ranch, and golf-ball-sized hail near North Creek Ranch and Plain Elementary. One report near town logged pea- to golf-ball-sized hail falling for eighteen minutes straight, shredding leaves and denting cars.
  • 28 May 2025. A second round twelve days later, with golf-ball-sized hail in Leander and 1.5-inch stones on the Travis County side of town.
  • 18 April 2026. Quarter-sized hail — smaller, but enough to matter on a roof that already took a beating the year before.

Zoom out and the pattern is steady rather than freak: 105 hail events within ten miles of Leander since 2004, concentrated in April and May, with May producing the largest stones. ZIP 78641 has logged more damaging-hail reports than any other around here.

What metal roof problems do you fix?

Most metal roof issues come down to a few culprits, and nearly all are fixable without a full replacement. If your roof is only a section away from another good decade, a repair is almost always the smarter call — and we'll tell you honestly when that's the case.

ProblemWhat's usually going on
Leaks around penetrationsChimneys, vents, and skylights are the usual suspects — failed flashing or sealant, not the panels themselves.
Loose or backed-out screwsOn exposed-fastener roofs, rubber washers dry out in Texas heat and screws work loose. Very fixable.
Separated or lifted seamsWind and thermal movement can open a seam. Caught early, it is a repair, not a replacement.
Damaged or dented panelsHail and fallen limbs. Individual panels can often be replaced without redoing the roof.
Worn sealant and flashingSealant has a shorter life than the metal. Refreshing it prevents the leak before it starts.
Rusted or cut edgesUsually at cut edges or scratches. Treatable if caught before it spreads.

Do you handle storm and hail damage?

Yes — and in Central Texas, that's a big part of what we do. The Austin area took three major hailstorms between 2023 and 2025, and hail can dent panels, chip finishes, and loosen fasteners even when the damage isn't obvious from the ground. We offer free storm inspections, document what we find for your insurer, and can meet your adjuster on-site.

Most hail denting on metal is cosmetic rather than structural — that's exactly why metal holds up so well here — but it's still worth having looked at, and it's often covered by your policy. See our hail & insurance claim guide for how the process works.

How do I know if my metal roof is damaged?

Worth a call if you notice any of these — especially after a storm:

  • Water stains on ceilings or walls
  • Visible dents or dimples after a hailstorm
  • Screws sitting proud of the panel surface
  • Lifted, separated, or rippling seams
  • Paint flecks or granules collecting in your gutters
  • Daylight visible in the attic

Please don't climb up to check yourself — metal roofs are slick, and a free inspection costs you nothing. Catching a small leak now beats paying for water damage later.

Should I repair or replace my metal roof?

It depends on the age and extent of the problem. A localized leak or a handful of loose fasteners on an otherwise sound roof is a repair. Widespread hail damage, a roof near the end of its life, or repeated leaks in different spots usually points to replacement — often insurance-assisted after a storm. We'll give you the honest answer, not the more expensive one. Learn about metal roof replacement.

How much does metal roof repair cost?

Metal roof repair FAQs

Do you offer emergency metal roof repair?
If you have an active leak, call right away and we will get you scheduled as quickly as possible and help you protect your home in the meantime. Storm damage and active leaks get priority over routine work.
Will insurance cover my hail-damaged metal roof?
Often, yes — if hail or wind caused the damage, your homeowner policy may cover repair or replacement. In Texas you have two years from the storm date to file, and we can document the damage and work with your adjuster.
Can a small leak really wait?
It is best not to wait. A small metal-roof leak lets water into your decking and attic, where it spreads into insulation, drywall, and framing. A quick repair now is almost always cheaper than the water damage later.
