Local storm history
Why Boerne roofs take a beating
Texas leads the nation in hail and wind insurance claims, but it is far too large for one storm profile: the north and centre of the state take spring supercell hail, the Gulf coast takes named-storm wind and wind-driven rain, and the west is drier with more isolated but still destructive convective wind. Tornadoes are a statewide spring threat. Hail and damaging wind account for most Texas roof claims, concentrated in the spring severe season (and the summer–fall Gulf hurricane season). How much of that pattern applies in Boerne is a question of position within the state, and then of which streets a single cell happened to cross — which is why a free inspection, not a regional average, is what settles it.
Texas does not have a single storm profile, so the useful question is which part of it you are in. Kendall County sits about 7 county lines from Dallas County, which puts it nearest the North and Central Texas hail corridor, where spring supercells along and either side of the I-35 corridor drop hail from quarter- to softball-size, and full roof replacements are an ordinary outcome of a single afternoon. Texas's other storm regimes — the Gulf coast, far West Texas and the Trans-Pecos, and the South Plains and Panhandle — describe different parts of the state, so a hail or wind season quoted for those areas is not a statement about this one.
Boerne is the only incorporated place the Census records in Kendall County, so a storm that tracks over town is effectively a countywide event for claims and contractor demand — and the nearest surplus crew capacity is over a county line.
Statewide, Boerne ranks 143rd by population of the 481 places Texas records — larger than roughly 70% of them. That is the honest measure of how many local contractors are realistically within reach, and of how quickly the queue fills when a system covers several counties at once.
Kendall County has grown about 13.5% since 2020 (roughly 5,998 more residents), so a large share of the housing stock is recent — newer roofs fail differently, and fast-growing counties tend to have contractor capacity already committed to new construction when a storm lands.
Kendall County accounts for under 1% of Texas's residents, 73rd of the state's 254 counties by population. Counties outside the largest few tend to be worked by adjusters after the metros are cleared, which is a practical argument for reporting the loss the same week rather than waiting to see what the neighbours do.
Kendall County spreads about 50,537 residents across 1 recorded place, so Boerne at roughly 21,774 is well below the 50,537 average for a place in this county. A hailstorm or wind event does not respect that distribution — when one system covers the county, every one of those places files in the same week, against the same pool of licensed crews.
The largest county bordering Kendall County is Bexar County with about 2,087,679 residents — a bigger market than this one, and the direction most surge crews come from when local capacity runs out.

What the work is worth
What a Boerne storm claim usually involves
Storm work in Boerne is insurance-funded, so the number that matters to you and the number that matters to your carrier are not the same one. Below are the 2 scenarios — siding & gutter damage and hail damage — our own estimate model prices, with what a standard policy usually does with each.
Siding & gutter damage in Boerne — our estimate model puts the insured project value at $1,000–$20,000 nationally.
Hail and wind damage to siding and gutters is covered. Note that state 'matching' rules vary, some require the carrier to reasonably match undamaged adjacent siding, which affects how much of a wall is replaced.
Inspection within days; gutter work in about a week, siding replacement roughly 1–3 weeks after approval.
- Gutter and downspout repair or replacement ($1,000–$3,500 typical)
- Siding repair or replacement ($5,000–$20,000 for larger areas)
- Matching assessment per state matching rules
- Documentation of hail/wind pattern across elevations
Hail damage in Boerne — our estimate model puts the insured project value at $9,000–$30,000 nationally.
Hail is a covered peril on virtually every HO-3 homeowners policy. When an inspection finds enough bruised/fractured shingles per test square, carriers routinely approve a full roof replacement, plus gutters, screens, and sometimes siding or AC-fin damage.
Free inspection within days; once the claim is approved, most roof replacements are scheduled and completed in about 2–6 weeks (weather and material supply permitting).
- Full or partial roof replacement (asphalt, or repair for metal/tile)
- Gutters, downspouts, and screens/vents
- Often siding, window screens, and AC condenser fins
- Insurance-grade photo documentation and an Xactimate-aligned scope
On a covered claim your real out-of-pocket is usually just the deductible — commonly $500–$2,500 flat, or a separate wind/hail deductible of 1%–5% of your dwelling coverage. Insurance funds the rest of the approved scope, which is why a free inspection that documents the damage properly is worth far more than shopping the repair price.
Ranges are wide 2026 national planning benchmarks from our own estimate model, not a quote for your property and not an offer. A spot repair and a full replacement are genuinely different jobs; a free inspection is what turns a range into a scope.
Before the adjuster arrives
What to do first in Boerne
What a Boerne homeowner does in the first two days matters more than what they do in the following two weeks. Photograph the property from the ground on every side, photograph interior ceilings and any staining, save receipts for tarping or board-up, and record the date of the storm. Then get a professional inspection on record. Damage that is documented promptly gets settled on its merits; damage documented late gets argued about as wear.
Widespread damage brings out-of-state crews into Texas within days, and Boerne is on the route. The reliable filter is boring: a contractor licensed and insured to work in Texas, a physical address you can find, a written scope before any money moves, and no pressure to sign an assignment of benefits on the doorstep. We match you with one independent local pro rather than selling your details to whoever pays most for them.
Don't miss your deadline
Texas storm claim rules
Reporting: Texas: report promptly. Many current Texas homeowners policies require you to report property damage within 1 year of the date of loss, some carriers apply that as a hard claim-filing deadline.
Deadline: General guidance: since the 2017 reforms (Insurance Code Ch. 542A), the window to sue on many weather claims is commonly around 2 years, and Texas's breach-of-contract limit is 4 years, but your policy's terms and required pre-suit notice control. Verify your specific deadline; do not rely on this figure.
Deductibles: Texas wind/hail policies frequently carry a separate percentage deductible (often 1%–2% of dwelling coverage) instead of a flat amount.
General information, not legal advice — verify with Texas Department of Insurance (tdi.texas.gov). See the Kendall County hub and Texas claim guidance.

On a covered claim the honest answer is your deductible — commonly $500–$2,500 flat, or 1%–5% of dwelling coverage on a separate wind/hail deductible. The larger figures you see quoted are the insured project value, which is what the carrier funds and what an adjuster negotiates.
