If it's just a few shingles, take a picture and I'll try to figure out what shingle it is. You can buy a few and replace it cheaper than having me or another roofer come to replace it.

Texfinn, that's good and bad I guess, depending on how you look at it. Being that my roof is only a year old I didn't want to redo it. New house=nice new roof. But I'm upgrading to 30 year HD!

House is 10 years old and still has the original roof. And definitely not in the best shape.
I've had wind damage quite a few times and I've just been replacing the shingles myself. It's getting a bit old already...

I'm working for my cousin's company when I am not in school. Keeps me busy in between semesters. I have an aunt out in Forney, I called them last night to see how they were. How bad was it last night? The weather channel said the storm was heading towards Talty. Hopefully you guys were fine. We actually received NO hail last night for once. I've had three hail storms since getting back from deployment, totaled my DD as we spoke about and my roof.

I think it was about a month ago Forney was hit with the one tornado and **** tons of hail!!! My house took a beating and knock down a lot of my fence. Just a few weeks before that more hail!
So after 3 or more hail storms in few months I’m not looking for it to be in good shape.
I had my house built in 2002

That's about the same situation we had out here in Denton area. Glad to hear the vehicles were fine. I had two choices, let the DD stay outside or the Tahoe. Well, I chose the DD. Might have been a bad decision now...still looking for a replacement. I found I was far too picky and let several cars get away from me. I may also start doing solar screen installs so either the Tahoe will get a transplant or I will be buying a newer GMC crew cab.
