Houston Storm Context
Why documentation matters in the Houston and Gulf Coast region
The Roof Shepherd brings full roofing capability across the Houston metro through our trusted partner network, from first look through installation, on one homeowner-owned documentation standard.
Dual Storm Season
Houston homeowners face two distinct storm seasons: the spring hail corridor (March to June) and the Gulf tropical season (June to November). The May 2024 Houston derecho caused $1.2 billion in damage with winds up to 100 mph, an estimated 300,000 structures were affected, many without documented condition records.
Gutters & Foundation
Houston’s flat terrain makes gutter drainage the primary defense against foundation moisture loading. A blocked or damaged gutter system during one of Houston’s high-volume rain events can cause more secondary damage than the storm itself. Documentation before and after storm events establishes the full picture.
