With insurance: Often just your deductible. If your roof has storm damage, your insurance typically covers the full replacement cost minus your deductible.

We advocate on your behalf to ensure your insurance company pays you correctly based on accurate measurements and industry-standard pricing.

Without insurance, costs vary by home size and materials—use our free roofing calculator for an estimate.

Pricing is based on accurate measurements and industry-standard rates set by third-party software (like Xactimate) that insurance companies also use.

This ensures fair, transparent pricing that matches what insurance adjusters see. We use:

• Satellite and drone measurements for accuracy
• Industry-standard material and labor rates
• Code-required upgrades and local requirements

We don't set arbitrary prices—the scope of work determines the cost.

We make sure insurance pays you correctly. Many homeowners leave money on the table because adjusters miss damage or underprice repairs.

Think of HAAG certification like the difference between a board-certified specialist and someone who learned from YouTube. Both might spot obvious problems, but only the certified expert catches hidden issues that matter most.

HAAG Engineering has been the authority on forensic roof investigation since 1924. When insurance companies, attorneys, or manufacturers need expert opinions on roof damage, they call HAAG. Our inspectors are trained by these same forensic engineers.

Only 3% of roofing inspectors nationwide hold HAAG certification because it requires significant investment—multi-day intensive training, rigorous forensic exams, and ongoing continuing education.

HAAG-certified inspectors are trained using the same damage assessment methodology that insurance companies use. This means:

• Our documentation speaks their language
• Our findings match their standards
• Our reports contain exactly what adjusters need to process your claim efficiently
• Our credentials carry weight when we advocate for your claim

• Multi-day intensive training programs
• Rigorous forensic inspection exams
• Ongoing continuing education requirements
• Investment of several thousand dollars

We pursued it because Central Texas homeowners deal with frequent hail storms, and we believe they deserve inspectors trained to the highest standard.
