A freak storm brought high winds, flooding, and widespread roof hail damage to Fort Stockton, TX, Monday, Oct. 10th, leaving businesses and municipal buildings in a sea of ice and in dire need of emergency repairs and water removal services. RestoreMaster dispatched emergency roof repair and flood response crews to Fort Stockton. Those in need of assistance can contact the RestoreMaster roof repair office in San Antonio, TX.

Fort Stockton residents were taken by surprise as the fast-moving storm descended on Pecos County residential neighborhoods and business districts just after 6 pm. People were forced to take refuge from the dangerous hailstones, wind gusts and find high ground to escape flash flooding.

“It was probably 30-40 minutes of rain, hail, wind, and chaos,” respiratory therapist Michael Garcia reportedly told CBS 7 news. “It was a mess.”

Decision-makers for businesses and municipal buildings are urged to request a complimentary roof inspection and water damage assessment. RestoreMaster provides comprehensive commercial roof inspection services that identify leaks, impacted support infrastructure, and help expedite an insurance claim.

A local hail damage map shows a large yellow storm stretching from 2023 to Highway 67, indicating ice up to 1.25 inches struck cars, trucks, and rooftops. The orange concentration directly over the business and municipal district where I-10, U.S. Highways 67, 285, and 385, and the Santa Fe Railroad converge was pounded by hail up to 2.5 inches in diameter. The gray regions on the storm damage map show that powerful gusts ripped through Fort Stockton, inflicting roof wind damage as well.

A National Weather Service high wind, tornado, and hailstorm damage map shows that Texas was the recipient of the country’s most destructive weather on Monday, Oct. 10th. Four hailstorms and one high wind incident were recorded, all located in Southeast Texas. Traditional news and social media reports highlight the wind and hail damage to roofing systems, as well as flooding across Fort Stockton.

  • Apache Elementary: Torrential downpours saw the water rise to the windows and flood the school.
  • McDonald Observatory: Hail the size of quarters pelted areas in nearby Jeff Davis County.
  • North Fort Stockton: Hail the size of golf balls battered building leaving them in need of emergency roof repair.
  • Pecos County Memorial Hospital: Water damage resulted from floods infiltrating patient rooms on the first floor.

Flash flooding prompted officials to cancel classes for the Fort Stockton Independent School District due to soaked flooring, carpets, and concerns that hazardous molds could grow quickly. The high winds reportedly exceeded 60 mph, leaving commercial buildings, churches, and others with substantial hail and roof wind damage.

RestoreMaster commercial roof inspection and emergency repair contractors responded to Canyon, TX, after high winds and hail damaged roofs on Tuesday, May 10, 2022.

Tornadoes, hail, and even strong winds can cause severe wind damage to roofing systems.

Winds as low as 50 mph can cause some older roofs to be damaged.

Roof damage can be severe or mild, depending on various factors which include: materials used on the roof, impact of debris, building height and proximity to other buildings, age, angle and shape of the roof and type of roofing.

After a severe storm of hail or high winds, it is important to get your roof inspected, and have a property damage assessment report so that you can learn whether you have damage to your roofing system.

Circumstances do not always allow for immediate repair of roof leaks. In the meantime, an experienced disaster roofing contractor can cover the roof or affected area with a tarp or with a durable plastic shrink wrap material, until such a time when more permanent repairs can be made. We need to stop more moisture damage, so we can prevent mold growth.

If your property was anywhere within the storm damage map, it would be best to get your roof inspected, even if you think your roof was not damaged.

Symptoms of storm damage problems do not always show up immediately.

And insurance companies sometimes enforce deadlines for claims, so you need to get your claim filed quickly.

Emergency response crews are available to assist commercial property owners with roof damage, frozen pipe damage, siding and window damage, and turnkey restoration services.

We serve the following types of property owners with hail or wind damage to tile roofing: hospitals and clinics, schools, universities, institutions, churches, condos, hotels, resorts, retail properties, warehouses, mult-family, historical properties, industrial properties and residential properties.
