How often does Arlington get hail big enough to damage a roof?

Regularly. National Weather Service storm reports logged golf-ball or larger hail in Arlington in April 2024, May 2024, June 2025 and September 2026. Hail around 1.75 inches and up can crack or bruise shingles, split vents and dent gutters, and much of that damage is not visible from the street.

Date Largest hail reported in or near Arlington Source
April 26, 2024 Golf ball (1.75 in.), northeast Arlington SPC storm reports
May 27, 2024 Public report of 3.25 in. northeast Arlington; 2 in. in Arlington; 2.75 in. in nearby Hurst SPC storm reports
March 30, 2025 Golf ball at East Loop 820 and Lancaster in east Fort Worth, just west of Arlington SPC storm reports
June 1, 2025 Hen egg (2 in.), northeast Arlington SPC storm reports
September 11, 2026 Golf ball on Canyon Creek Drive, south Arlington, with tree limbs and power lines down SPC storm reports

Storm reports are spot observations, so your street may have seen larger or smaller hail than the nearest report. Arlington also has a longer history: a June 2018 storm brought hail as large as baseballs to Arlington and nearby cities, with early loss estimates reported around $425 million, according to FOX coverage at the time.

02

What should Arlington homeowners do after a hailstorm?

Photograph anything visible from the ground, check your policy’s reporting deadline, and get a roof inspection before agreeing to any work. We document damage in writing, and if you file a claim we can meet your adjuster to show what we found. The claim decision stays between you and your insurer.

The Texas Department of Insurance spells out the rules in Roofing and insurance: know the law: homeowners must pay their deductible, contractors cannot waive or rebate it, and contractors cannot act as public adjusters. Be cautious with anyone who knocks the day after a storm, offers to “take care of” your deductible, or wants a signature before you have seen a written scope.

03

Does Arlington require a permit and a registered contractor to reroof?

Yes, based on the city’s published guidance. Arlington issues reroof permits for single-family homes through its online permitting system, and contractors must hold an active city registration. The permit has to be issued and posted before work begins, and it closes with a final building inspection. Confirm details with the city before work starts.

A March 2023 Planning and Development Services notice says contractors must maintain an active General Contracting, New Home Builder/Remodeler or Reroof contractor registration, and that a building final inspection closes the permit. The city’s roofing replacement permits and inspections bulletin also notes that roof coverings applied with an open flame, such as some torch-down low-slope systems, need a separate Fire Department permit.

Before you sign, ask the roofer for the company name they are registered under and look it up through the city’s permit portal. You may also be able to review their permit history there. Texas has no state roofing license as of October 2026, so city registration is one of the few objective checks you have.

How much does a new roof cost in Arlington?

Market estimates put a typical Dallas-Fort Worth asphalt reroof at roughly $6,600 to $18,000, with impact-resistant shingles, metal or a larger two-story home pushing the total higher. These are regional estimates from cost guides, not Prometheus pricing. Your real number comes from a measured, written bid.

The range above comes from Build-Folio’s Dallas calculator and RoofVista’s Grand Prairie estimates, which sit right next door to Arlington. RoofVista lists architectural shingles at about $4.24 to $6.36 per square foot and impact-resistant shingles at about $5.40 to $8.64. Given Arlington’s hail record, it is worth asking your insurance agent whether your carrier offers a discount for a UL 2218 Class 4 roof. Many Texas insurers do, and each insurer sets the amount, per the Texas Department of Insurance.

05

Can you add solar or battery backup when you replace an Arlington roof?

Yes, and doing them together avoids paying to remove panels for a reroof later. Arlington homes are generally in Oncor’s delivery area, where you choose your retail electric provider. Since the September 2026 storm also brought down power lines, battery backup is worth a look.

We install solar power systems and FranklinWH battery backup, so the roof, array and electrical work can be planned as one project. If you only need a roof now, we can still talk about layout so a future solar install is simpler. Arlington is in Tarrant County, and property records are with the Tarrant Appraisal District if your project needs ownership or homestead details.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Was there hail in Arlington in September 2026?

Yes. A storm report filed with the National Weather Service on September 11, 2026 described hail up to golf-ball size on Canyon Creek Drive in south Arlington, along with downed tree limbs and power lines.

How can I check whether a roofer is registered in Arlington?

Arlington requires contractors to hold an active city registration to get a reroof permit. Ask for the exact business name and look it up through the city’s online permit portal, where you can also review permit history.

Can a roofer pay or waive my deductible in Arlington?

No. Texas law requires homeowners to pay their insurance deductible and bars contractors from waiving or rebating it. We document damage and can meet your adjuster, but the claim stays between you and your insurer.

Who supplies electricity to most Arlington homes?

Arlington homes are generally in Oncor’s delivery area, and residents choose a retail electric provider. That choice affects how solar exports are credited, so compare plans before going solar.
