Full Hail Roof Replacement With Impact-Resistant Shingles in Benbrook
In October 2026, Highland Roofing Co. finished a full insurance-funded roof replacement on a roughly 26-square Benbrook, TX home after hail, installing impact-resistant shingles and adding eight soffit vents for better attic ventilation.
The problem
After a severe hailstorm, this Benbrook homeowner filed an insurance claim, but the insurance company first approved only a small portion of the roof for replacement. That left him with a patched roof where the rest of the hail-damaged shingles would stay in place. On top of that, the house didn't have enough soffit vents under the eaves, so the attic couldn't breathe the way it should. Poor ventilation traps heat and moisture, which is hard on shingles and decking over time.
What we did
The homeowner reached out to us a few months before the job. We inspected the roof and documented the hail damage across the whole roof, then provided that documentation to his insurance company to support a full replacement. After reviewing it, the insurance company approved the entire roof. Before tear-off, we wrapped the house in protective tarps to keep debris off the walls, windows and yard. Our crew removed the old shingles, laid new synthetic underlayment, and installed Class 3 impact-resistant shingles, which come free on every Highland roof replacement. To fix the airflow problem, we added eight additional soffit vents under the eaves so fresh air can move into the attic and out through the roof. Owner Scott Lang was on the job, as he is on every Highland roof.
The result
The homeowner now has a complete new roof on about 26 squares instead of a partial patch. The impact-resistant shingles stand up better to future Texas hail and can qualify him for a discount on his insurance premiums. With eight new soffit vents, his attic ventilates much better, which helps the roof last. The job is backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty, so he has peace of mind for years to come.

Benbrook roof questions
Straight answers
What if my insurance only approves part of my roof after hail in Benbrook?
That's what happened on this Benbrook job. The insurance company first approved only a small section. We inspected the roof, documented the hail damage across all of it, and provided that documentation to the insurance company, which then approved the full roof. Highland doesn't act as a public adjuster, but our free inspection gives you clear evidence of the damage to share with your insurer.
Do impact-resistant shingles lower insurance premiums in Texas?
Impact-resistant shingles can qualify Texas homeowners for a discount on their premiums, and that was an added bonus for this Benbrook homeowner. Check with your own insurer about their specific discount. At Highland Roofing Co., Class 3 impact-resistant shingles are included free on every roof replacement, so you get the stronger shingle without paying extra for the upgrade.
Why would a roofer add soffit vents during a roof replacement?
Soffit vents under the eaves let fresh air into the attic so heat and moisture can escape through the roof. This Benbrook home didn't have enough of them, so we added eight additional soffit vents during the replacement. Better airflow helps keep the attic cooler and protects the shingles and decking, helping the new roof last longer.
