Draw a 10-mile circle around Helotes and NOAA shows 129 hail reports inside it for 2015 to 2025. They land on 34 different days, and 100 of the stones reached an inch or more.

The worst year was 2025, with 29 reports. Then comes 12 April 2016, when stones came in at 4.5, 4 and 3.5 inches. Even number five in the table measures 3 inches.

How Fast Is Helotes Growing?

Helotes is compact. A single storm cell crossing town can hit most of its roofs in one afternoon.

Your Helotes Roof and the Record

With stones like these, the roof system is a real decision. Hail bruises an asphalt shingle, or splits it, and the granules that shield the mat start washing off. Standing seam metal usually takes a dent in the flat of the pan instead. An insurer in Texas will ask one thing about that dent: cosmetic, or functional?

UL Standard 2218 sorts impact resistance into four classes. Class 4 earns the largest premium credit on a Texas policy, and TDI form PC068 is how the install gets recorded. Call your insurer before picking a material and ask what paperwork it wants. Once the roof is on, it's too late to ask.

Which Red Roan Services Fit Helotes Roofs?

What Does a Hail Evaluation Photograph?

Shingles, flashing, drip edge, pipe boots, vents, gutters and soft metal all get a look. In a hail town the soft metal matters most. A dented vent cap or gutter shows the storm's direction and the stone size, even if the shingles look fine.

Anything significant gets a photo. Next to it goes a short note on what the finding means for the roof, ending in a verdict: functional or cosmetic. That verdict often settles who pays.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who replaces and repairs roofs in Helotes, TX?

Red Roan Construction. The crew works out of Boerne, and Helotes is inside its South Texas service area. That can mean one leak or a whole roof. Shingle, standing seam metal, TPO and tile are all installed, and every visit starts with the same free evaluation and photographed report.

How often does it hail in Helotes?

Every year on file. NOAA has 129 reports in the 10-mile circle, 100 of them an inch or bigger. One stone measured 4.5 inches, on 12 April 2016. That is the figure NOAA filed, not an estimate from our own files.

Is metal roofing a better choice where hail is common?

Your roof decides. A standing seam panel tends to dent rather than split, so you get a mark but no leak. Class 4 shingle costs less up front. The evaluation report weighs both for your house.

What is a Class 4 shingle?

It is a shingle that passed UL Standard 2218 at the top of four impact classes. Texas insurers give their largest premium credit for it, and TDI form PC068 documents the install.

Does it cost anything to have a Helotes roof inspected?

No. The evaluation is free, the company states no price for the visit or the report, and you sign nothing afterward. The report and photos stay yours even if you hire someone else.

Where These Numbers Come From

Hail and thunderstorm wind rows come from the NOAA Storm Events Database detail files for 2015 through 2025, filtered to Texas and saved in this site's repository. A report counts for Helotes when its start point lies within 10 miles of the Census Bureau's internal point for the place (29.57797, -98.68054). Neighboring towns share reports because their circles overlap, so the counts are not additive across pages. Hail sizes are the reported stone diameter in inches and wind speeds are in knots, as NOAA records them; NOAA does not measure them itself. Downloaded 17 October 2026. A recompute script re-reads the saved files and fails the site build checks if a printed number changes.
