Do you need a permit to replace a roof in Haslet?

Yes, based on the city’s own pages. The City of Haslet’s Permits and Inspections page lists replacing a roof among the improvements that require a permit, inspections are required for all permits issued, and contractors must hold a current Haslet registration before a permit can be issued. Confirm details with the city before work starts.

• Permit: roof replacement appears on the list of projects requiring a permit on Haslet’s Permits and Inspections page. Cosmetic work like painting does not need one.
• Contractor registration: per Haslet’s Permits and Contractor Registrations page, all contractors applying for a permit must be registered with the city, and registration renews annually.
• Inspections: inspections are required for permitted work. Ask who will request the final inspection.
• Outside city limits: some homes with a Haslet mailing address are in the city’s extraterritorial jurisdiction or another city. Your address decides which rules apply.

Ask any roofer you’re considering, including us, to confirm their current Haslet registration before you sign. Requirements and fees change, so confirm with Haslet Building Services before work starts.

Who supplies electricity in Haslet, and why does it matter for a roof?

Haslet is split between Tri-County Electric Cooperative and Oncor, sometimes by street or property. Tri-County names Haslet among the communities where its members live, and the city’s own facilities are served by both utilities. Which one serves your home matters if you plan to add solar after reroofing.

A City of Haslet filing with the Public Utility Commission lists some city facilities on Oncor and others on Tri-County, and Tri-County’s About Us page names Haslet among the towns it serves. Co-op members set up solar interconnection and export credit through the co-op. In Oncor areas, those terms come from your retail electricity plan. We check your utility before designing solar, so the roof layout and the system design line up.

Has Haslet had hail recently?

Yes. The Storm Prediction Center logged 1.5-inch hail in Haslet on March 29, 2025, and on August 26, 2026, emergency management reported 1 to 1.5-inch hail near Alliance in the Golden Triangle area southeast of Haslet. Justin has had quarter-size reports in both 2025 and 2026.

• March 29, 2025: 1.5-inch (ping-pong ball) hail in Haslet from a social media photo, per the SPC report log.
• November 23, 2025: quarter-size hail for about three minutes west of Justin, per the SPC report log.
• May 24, 2026: quarter-size hail west-northwest of Justin, per the SPC report log.
• August 26, 2026: 1 to 1.5-inch hail near Alliance in the Golden Triangle area, plus dime-to-quarter hail near Park Vista Blvd and Keller Haslet Rd, per the SPC report log.

These are preliminary public and spotter reports, so sizes are estimates. Hail around one inch can still bruise shingles, crack vents and dent gutters, and that damage is often invisible from the ground. If one of these storms crossed your property, a closer look is worthwhile.
