Which Odessa neighborhoods do you work in?

How bad has the hail been in Odessa?

The June 14, 2017 storm was one of the costliest in Texas history, about $480 million, with baseball and larger hail across the city. Baseball hail hit south Odessa in June 2015, 2.5-inch hail fell in May 2024, and 2-inch hail with 70 mph winds hit the north side in June 2024. A roof that was on the house for any of those deserves a free inspection.

Do I need a City of Odessa permit to re-roof?

The city registers general contractors and does not publish a separate roofing permit fee. Roofs by Nicholas is registered with the City of Odessa, and if the Building Inspection office requires a permit or inspection for your job we handle it.

Certificates of insurance and a written scope come before the work.

My Odessa house is from the 1950s or 60s. What does that mean for a new roof?

About a fifth of Odessa's homes were built in the 1950s. Expect at least one old layer to tear off, some plank decking to replace at a per-sheet price we quote up front, and new drip edge, flashing and underlayment with ice-and-water shield in the valleys.

Which roof should I choose for Odessa hail?

Class 4 impact-resistant shingles for most homes; they carry the highest UL 2218 rating and many insurers discount premiums for them. Standing seam metal for the best wind resistance and the longest life. We price both on the free estimate.

Hail and Wind Damage Repair in Odessa

Odessa sits in the path of the spring storms that roll across the Permian Basin, and hail is the biggest threat most roofs here face. Strong straight-line winds can lift shingle tabs and peel back flashing, while summer sun and blowing dust wear roofing materials down year-round. If a storm comes through, give us a call. Our phones are answered 24/7, and we can help get exposed areas tarped while you sort out next steps. We will inspect the roof, photograph the damage, and put together a written estimate you can share with your insurance company. If you would like, we can also meet your adjuster on-site. Your claim stays between you and your insurer, but you will have clear documentation to work from. For a step-by-step list of what to check and document, see our roof repair checklist after a hail storm in Odessa.

Odessa is 30 minutes from our office down SH 191, and with more than 2,000 documented jobs it is our second-biggest market after Midland. The 2020 census counted 114,428 people. The median house was built in 1980, but the 1950s are still the single biggest decade of construction, so about half the homes inside Loop 338 predate 1980. A third have been built since 2000, most of them on the north side in Parks Bell Ranch, Parks Legado, Ratliff Ranch and the D.R. Horton sections off Yellow Jacket Road, with Whitetail Ridge planned between JBS Parkway and Grandview. We work both halves: the 1950s and 60s ranch houses in Crescent Park, Sherwood, Windsor Heights and University Gardens, and the newer subdivisions along 42nd Street and the Andrews Highway. About 60 percent of Odessa homes are owner-occupied and 68 percent are single-family.

Odessa’s hail record is one of the worst in the Basin. On June 14, 2017, baseball and larger hail, with stones possibly over 4.5 inches, crossed the city with a 100 mph microburst in West Odessa; the National Weather Service documented roof damage at the Odessa Country Club, Dorado Ranch and Sherwood Baptist Church near E 42nd Street, and the Insurance Council of Texas put the loss near $480 million. On June 12, 2015, baseball hail hit south Odessa near Loop 338 and SH 191. On May 16, 2024, 2.5-inch hail fell west of town with a 71 mph gust at the airport, and on June 10, 2024, 2-inch hail and 70 mph winds broke windows on the north side. Hail of 1.25 to 1.75 inches fell again on June 9, 2025. The City of Odessa registers general contractors at no charge and does not publish a separate roofing permit fee; we handle whatever paperwork the city requires. We serve all of Ector County ISD, plus West Odessa, Gardendale, Pleasant Farms and Goldsmith.
