Fix the leak right now
Most leaks start at flashing, a vent or a few lifted shingles. Those are usually a patch, not a new roof. NOAA's latest hail report for the area is June 2, 2026, so a leak after that date may trace back to it.
Call now and say it is leaking, so a roofer can tarp or patch it. While you wait, catch the drip and move what can get wet. Take photos inside and out before anything is fixed, as the Texas Department of Insurance advises. Keep the tarp receipt for any claim.
Maria in Houston saw a brown ring on her bedroom ceiling after a storm. She set a bucket under the drip, took photos of the stain and called. A roofer tarped the leak that day and wrote a quote for the repair.

Where leaks start
Leaks most often start around a pipe boot, a chimney or a skylight, where metal flashing meets shingles. Wind lifts shingle tabs and lets rain under them. Hail bruises shingles and knocks off the grit, which speeds up wear.
NOAA files show 15 hail reports and 21 wind reports for Harris County from January 2025 on. The largest stone was 1.75 inches, so a roof here may carry hits from more than one storm (NOAA Storm Events).
Repair or replace
A repair makes sense when the damage is in one spot and the rest of the roof is sound. Check age next. InterNACHI puts 3-tab shingles at about 20 years and architectural shingles at 30. A roof near that age with leaks in more than one place is usually ready to replace.
Who licenses roofers here
Texas has no state roofing license, so a Houston roofer shows an insurance certificate and a written quote. A roofer who offers to absorb your deductible is breaking Texas law.
Newest change: Texas SB 458 gives you a right to appraisal when you and your insurer disagree on the amount of a loss. It covers home policies issued or renewed after January 1, 2026. (Texas Department of Insurance)

How much does a roof repair cost?
It depends on the spot and the roof. Get a written quote that names the part being fixed, then compare it with the full roof cost.
Will insurance pay for a roof repair?
Storm damage is often covered. Wear and old age usually are not. The roof insurance claim steps come first.
Can a roof be repaired in the rain?
A roofer can put a tarp on in light rain. Shingles and flashing go on when the roof is dry. The leak page covers tonight.
When is a repair not worth it?
When the roof is near the end of its life or leaks in more than one place. See how long a roof lasts.
