Roof Insurance Claims · Katy, TX
Free inspection, thorough documentation, and we meet your adjuster on site — with particular attention to age vs. storm damage disputes.
Insurance Claims
Most roof claims are not won or lost at the adjuster meeting. They are decided by how well the damage was documented before it. An adjuster is on a schedule and looking at a lot of roofs; if nobody has laid out the damage clearly, the easy answer is wear and tear.
A large share of Katy roofs in Cinco Ranch, Grand Lakes and Cross Creek Ranch went on during the early-2000s building boom. That single fact drives most Katy claim disputes, because carriers will argue that what you are seeing is twenty-plus years of Texas sun rather than last month’s hail.
Building Edge Construction inspects the roof for free, photographs every finding, and meets your adjuster on site so the same evidence is in front of both of you. If the approved scope comes back missing damage that is clearly there, we document it and submit a supplement. Owner John Baudry has been doing this side of the business for years.

Katy Specifics
When a roof is old enough, the easy call for a carrier is deterioration rather than a covered storm event. Beating that argument is entirely about evidence: directional damage patterns consistent with a specific storm, fresh impact marks on soft metals with no oxidation, and dated documentation tied to a known weather event. That is the case we build during the inspection, before anything gets filed — because it is very hard to assemble after a denial.
How It Works
Documented with photos before anyone files anything.
You open the claim with your carrier — we give you the evidence.
We meet them on the roof and walk the damage together.
We complete the covered repairs and close it out with you.
Know the difference
Your adjuster works for the insurance company and decides coverage. Building Edge Construction is your contractor — we inspect, document and perform the work. We are not a public adjuster and we do not legally represent you in the claim, but having someone who knows roofs standing on the roof with the adjuster changes the conversation.

Common Questions
Only if you actually have storm damage. Filing on a roof that is simply old rarely ends well. Get a free inspection first — we will tell you plainly whether the damage is claimable, and we will tell you when it is not.
Yes, age alone does not disqualify a claim — but it does raise the evidence bar. Carriers will look for wear and tear first, so the damage has to be clearly tied to a storm event through impact patterns, fresh marks on soft metals and dated documentation. That is exactly what we put together during the inspection.
That is the most common denial we see on older Katy roofs, and it is frequently appealable. If the damage is genuinely storm-related, we document the evidence and submit a supplement to your carrier rather than accepting the first answer.
Yes, and we strongly recommend it. We walk the roof with your adjuster so the damage we documented is being looked at directly rather than described second-hand.
On a covered claim it is usually just your deductible. The inspection is free, and we go over the numbers with you in writing before any work starts.
No. We are your contractor. We document damage and perform the repairs, and we work directly with your insurance company — but coverage decisions are made by your insurer, and we do not legally represent policyholders in a claim.
