The first-reroof wave is here.

Collin sits in the I-35 hail belt. The densest hail map in the country. The same supercell engine that dumps stones on Dallas and Tarrant drives the same March to June storm season here. Two to four major events in a normal spring. May is the peak month. Tornado tracks share the calendar.

What sets Collin apart is housing vintage. Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Allen, and Wylie all saw fast post-2010 buildout. In much of the county, the original builder-grade roof is just hitting end of life. A first-reroof wave often means two things. The carrier's first scope comes in light. The roof "still has life" on paper. The tear-off then finds more deck and flashing issues than the build paper showed. Both are supplement-eligible if logged at find.

Class 4 IR uptake is among the highest in DFW in Plano, Frisco, and McKinney. Most carriers (State Farm, Allstate, USAA, Farmers) cut the wind/hail line 15 to 35% for IR. The discount pays for the upgrade in 4 to 6 years. The shingle holds through a hailstorm that totals a standard build. For a Collin homeowner near first reroof, the IR upgrade is often the right call.

When DFW gets hit and the adjuster backlog stretches 6 to 12 weeks, Collin deploys on the same DFW same-day clock as Dallas and Tarrant. We dispatch same-day inside the metro.

Rate-protection rule. Texas insurers cannot cancel or surcharge your policy for a weather claim. A Collin hail or wind claim cannot raise your rate or non-renew you.

Percent-based deductibles. Wind/hail deductibles in Collin are often 1 to 2% of dwelling value. Often $5,000 to $10,000. Not a flat $1,000. On the larger Frisco and Allen homes, the math shifts more. We help calc the line before scope-writing.

No matching law (line-of-sight argued). Texas has no formal match statute. The lever is the like kind and quality wording in your policy. On the post-2010 stock that defines Collin, builder-grade shingle colors get pulled often. That fires the full-slope or full-wall match.

AOB-hostile. RA does not take AOBs in Texas. Collin is no exception. We work as your contractor on the approved scope.

Deductible-waiver ban. Tex. Ins. Code §707.003 makes deductible-waiving illegal. If approved, the supplement closes the gap under the same claim number. No new deductible.
