Your One-Stop Roofing Company in Georgetown

Georgetown's housing is relatively young. Half of the homes in Georgetown were built before 2008, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey 2020-2024, so many roofs are still on their original shingles at about 18 years old. That is good news, but a young roof is not a storm-proof roof. Shingle warranties usually cover defects in the material, not damage from hail or wind, so storm damage is a separate question from the warranty.

And storms here keep coming back. NOAA's Storm Prediction Center logged 58 hail reports within 10 miles of Georgetown from 2015 through 2024. Twenty of them were 1.75 inches or larger, and hail that size showed up in four different years: 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2023. The largest stone measured 4.0 inches on September 24, 2023. When large hail returns that often, damage from one season can go unnoticed until the next storm turns it into a leak.

Georgetown is in Williamson County, and about 69 percent of its homes are owner occupied. GemSco is family owned, licensed and insured, and an elite contractor for Owens Corning and GAF. After a storm we inspect the roof, photograph what we find and give you a free estimate. Whether a claim is covered depends on your policy and your insurer, but clear documentation helps you have that conversation.
