Texas City, TX
Roofing on the bay side of Galveston Island
Texas City sits on Galveston Bay, a few miles from the Gulf. Roofs here take high winds from tropical storms and hurricanes, heavy rain in short bursts, strong sun and salt air that corrodes fasteners and metal flashing.
Hurricane Ike in 2008 and Hurricane Beryl in July 2024 both brought damaging wind to Galveston County, and Harvey in 2017 showed how much rain the area can take. Many local roofs have been replaced or patched after one of those storms, which means a wide mix of ages and materials on the same street.
Because Galveston County is in the coastal area served by the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association (TWIA), roof work can come with inspection and paperwork requirements that inland homeowners never see.
Windstorm insurance
If your windstorm coverage is through TWIA
TWIA generally requires that new roofs and roof repairs in the designated coastal area meet the windstorm building code and are certified. Ask about this before work starts.
- Ask the roofer whether your repair or replacement needs a windstorm inspection by a Texas Department of Insurance appointed inspector.
- Make sure inspections happen during the work, not only after. Some components must be inspected before they are covered up.
- Keep a copy of the certificate of compliance (commonly called a WPI-8) with your insurance documents.
- Use materials rated for the wind speed required in your area, and installed to the manufacturer's high-wind instructions.
- Texas law prohibits contractors from waiving or paying your insurance deductible. Be wary of anyone who offers to.
Requirements change and depend on your policy. Confirm current rules with TWIA, your agent or the Texas Department of Insurance.

Plain-language answers to the questions Texas City homeowners ask most.
How to Find Where Your Roof Is Leaking
Water usually enters the roof uphill from where it shows on the ceiling, then runs along decking or rafters. Trace it from the attic with a flashlight during or soon after rain: follow stains and wet wood upward toward vents, chimneys, valleys and wall junctions, which are the most common entry points.
Read the guideStorm Damaged Your Roof? What to Do Next
Stay off the roof and away from downed lines, contain any leaks inside, photograph damage from the ground, report the claim promptly, and get the roof tarped to stop further water entry. Then choose a roofer with a written contract and proof of insurance. In Texas, a contractor may not waive or pay your insurance deductible.
Read the guideTWIA and Windstorm Certificates for Roof Work in Galveston County
In the Texas coastal areas where the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association (TWIA) provides wind coverage, roof work generally must meet the windstorm building code and be certified, usually through inspections by a Texas Department of Insurance appointed inspector, resulting in a certificate of compliance commonly called a WPI-8. Ask before work starts, because some inspections must happen before materials are covered.

Roof leak questions from Texas City homeowners
Where is my roof actually leaking?
Water often enters in one place and shows up somewhere else after running along decking or rafters. Common entry points are flashing at walls, vents, chimneys and skylights, valleys, damaged or missing shingles and nail holes from old repairs.
Can a leak be repaired, or do I need a new roof?
Most leaks on a roof in otherwise good shape can be repaired. Widespread granule loss, curling, brittle shingles or repeated leaks in different areas usually point to replacement.
Will insurance pay for a roof leak?
Damage from a sudden event like wind or hail is often covered. Leaks from age and wear usually are not. In Galveston County, wind coverage may be through a separate TWIA policy with its own deductible.
Do Texas roofers need a license?
Texas does not have a statewide roofing contractor license. Ask for proof of insurance, a written contract and local references, and check whether the roofer is familiar with windstorm inspection requirements.
How soon can a roof be tarped?
As soon as it is safe to work on. Roofers do not go up in active storms or high winds. Tarping is often done the same day or the day after weather clears.
Is the call free?
Yes. You only pay the roofer for work you approve, or your insurer pays under your policy.
