Why Lakeway Gets Hit by Hail
Understanding Hill Country Hail Patterns
Lakeway sits at the edge of the Hill Country where storms form and intensify. Higher elevation can mean different hail patterns than Austin proper.
Hill Country Storm Formation
Impact: Storms forming over the Hill Country often reach peak intensity near Lakeway before tracking east. The terrain can intensify updrafts, producing larger hail. Lakeway sometimes sees hail events that miss lower-elevation areas.
Our Solution: Monitor Hill Country weather specifically—Austin forecasts may not reflect Lakeway conditions. Schedule inspection after any reported hail in the area.
Premium Roofing Materials
Impact: Lakeway homes often feature tile, slate, stone-coated steel, or premium architectural shingles. Each material responds to hail differently—what damages one may not damage another. Assessment requires material-specific expertise.
Our Solution: We assess damage based on your specific material. Tile can crack while metal only dents cosmetically. We know the difference and document accordingly.
Tree Coverage
Impact: Many Lakeway properties have significant tree coverage that can deflect some hail but also creates debris damage. Trees complicate damage assessment—impacts may be branches, not hail.
Our Solution: We differentiate hail damage from debris damage. This distinction matters for insurance claims. Proper documentation establishes causation.
Larger Roof Areas
Impact: Lakeway homes tend to be larger with more complex roof geometries. More surface area means more exposure to hail. Complex designs have more penetrations and transition points vulnerable to damage.
Our Solution: We inspect all roof areas, including secondary roofs, dormers, and complex transitions that may be overlooked.

Our Lakeway Experience
Lakeway requires different expertise than typical Austin metro work. When we inspect a Rough Hollow tile roof, we're looking for different damage patterns than on a standard shingle home. Tile can crack without visible displacement. Slate can fracture internally. Metal dents cosmetically but rarely fails functionally.
This material expertise matters for insurance claims. We've seen Lakeway homeowners get claims denied because previous inspections didn't properly document damage appropriate to the material. We document what matters for each roof type.
Honesty is particularly important with premium materials. A cosmetic dent in a metal roof isn't the same as a functional failure. A tile with minor chipping may have decades of life left. We tell homeowners the truth about what they're dealing with.
