Storm damage is often invisible from the ground — especially hail impact that fractures shingle matting without immediate leaks. The first step is a professional inspection by a HAAG-certified technician, who uses trained visual assessment, drone imagery, and attic moisture scanning to identify compromised areas. In Fresno and Fort Bend County, common signs include granule loss in gutters, soft spots on the roof deck, cracked or missing flashing, and bruising on ridge vents. If damage is confirmed, we provide a detailed scope of work with photo documentation — essential for insurance claims. We recommend scheduling an inspection within 48 hours of a major storm, as many insurers impose strict filing deadlines. Tekton offers same-day emergency tarping at no cost to prevent secondary water damage while your claim is processed.

For homes in Fresno and the broader Houston region, James Hardie® Insulated Panels deliver the highest thermal performance among widely available siding systems. These panels combine durable fiber cement cladding with a factory-bonded polyisocyanurate insulation core, achieving an R-value of 4.2 — significantly higher than standard vinyl (R-0.6) or non-insulated HardiePlank® (R-0). The HardieZone® HZ10 formulation resists warping and fading under extreme UV exposure, and the ColorPlus® Technology finish requires no repainting for 15 years. When installed with continuous insulation and proper flashing, this system reduces wall heat transfer by up to 30 percent, lowering summer cooling costs. We also recommend light-colored finishes — such as Khaki, Navajo Beige, or Timber Bark — which reflect more solar radiation than dark alternatives.

Absolutely — insurance advocacy is a core part of our storm-damage restoration service. Our process begins with a no-cost, HAAG-certified inspection to document damage in insurer-accepted terms. We then prepare a comprehensive Xactimate®-compatible scope with line-item pricing, high-resolution photos, and drone footage — submitted directly to your adjuster. If the initial settlement is insufficient, we handle supplement requests, meet with adjusters on-site, and negotiate in good faith to ensure fair compensation. We work directly with all major carriers — State Farm, USAA, Allstate, Farmers, and Liberty Mutual — and are recognized as a preferred vendor for quality restoration. Importantly, we never inflate claims or engage in unethical practices; our goal is accurate, complete coverage so your home is restored to pre-loss condition — or better.

While both improve energy efficiency, impact-resistant windows — such as Pella HurricaneShield® or Andersen 400 Series with laminated glass — provide critical life-safety and structural benefits standard double-pane units cannot match. They feature a polyvinyl butyral (PVB) interlayer sandwiched between two panes of glass; when struck by windborne debris during a hurricane or severe hailstorm, the glass may crack but remains adhered to the film, preventing catastrophic breach. This maintains the building envelope, reducing the risk of roof uplift and interior water damage. In Galveston County and coastal Fort Bend, many municipalities now require impact-rated windows for new construction and major renovations. Beyond storm protection, these windows offer superior sound dampening (STC 35+), UV blocking (99%), and often qualify for insurance premium discounts of up to 35 percent. Tekton installs only windows tested to Miami-Dade NOA standards — the strictest in the nation.
