The table counts events, not damaged roofs. 36 of the 49 reports were stones an inch across or bigger, which is the size insurers and forecasters call severe. The two biggest, at 2 inches, came on 23 March 2021 and 21 March 2022. Both were filed under Comal County.
The peak was 10 reports in a year, reached in both 2021 and 2022. Wind added 23, the worst at 65 knots. Helotes counts 129 hail reports and Seguin 21. New Braunfels falls between them. After a loud storm, check your roof. Your whole street probably does not need a new one.
How Fast Is New Braunfels Growing?
90,441 residents at the April 2020 base, 116,477 in the 2024 estimate: +28.8 percent.
The city added 26,036 residents in four years. That makes two groups of owners. Some have roofs from before 2020 that have seen several storm seasons. Others have new roofs nobody has inspected. Both get the same free evaluation.
Your New Braunfels Roof and the Record
Texas insurers can attach endorsement HO-145 to a policy. It removes coverage for cosmetic hail damage to the roof covering. The Texas Department of Insurance calls it damage that changes how the roof looks without letting water in or stopping the covering from working. Picture a split shingle with a leak under it: still covered. Picture a dented metal panel that keeps the attic dry: maybe not.
So get it in writing. Each finding in Red Roan's evaluation comes with a photo and a note on what that part of the roof can still do.

What Does the Evaluation Report Contain?
Red Roan says the evaluation looks at every accessible part of the roofing system. It checks for damage, installation problems and aging materials. Each finding is photographed and written up, and the report stays with you whatever you decide.
You get a report, not a pitch. Repair, replace or wait is up to you. A roof that needs nothing gets a report that says so. After a storm, the Texas Department of Insurance suggests collecting more than one estimate. Any contractor who offers to waive your deductible is breaking state law.

How often does it hail around New Braunfels?
Often. NOAA logged 49 hail reports within 10 miles of the city center for 2015 through 2025, on 20 different days. That covers 10 of the 11 years, so a roof here has most likely met hail more than once.
Does Red Roan charge for a roof evaluation in New Braunfels?
No. The evaluation is free and ends in a written report with photographs that you keep. Red Roan states no price for the visit and none for the report, and the report is yours whether or not you hire the company afterwards.
Should I call a roofer or my insurer first after hail?
Either order works. Take photos from the ground and note any stains inside. Then book the evaluation so the roof is documented before a repair changes it. The Texas Department of Insurance asks for the same photos and notes. The claim itself stays between you and your insurer.
Which roof systems does Red Roan install near New Braunfels?
Asphalt shingle, standing seam metal, TPO and tile, plus gutters and exterior restoration. Because the crew installs all four, the advice follows your roof and your budget rather than whichever system a crew happens to prefer. The evaluator can compare them for your house at the visit.
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 New Braunfels when its start point lies within 10 miles of the Census Bureau's internal point for the place (29.699306, -98.115127). 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.
