The 10 Best Austin Hail Damage Repair Contractors, Ranked

01
Top Pick

Driftwood Builders Roofing

Family-Owned, GAF Master Elite — Manchaca, TX
★★★★½ 4.9/5 232 reviews Since 2005

Driftwood Builders Roofing earns top placement on most of our Austin-area rankings for one simple reason: it's hard to find another residential roofer in the South Austin / Hill Country region with this combination of GAF Master Elite certification, 232+ verified five-star reviews, and 20 years of continuous local ownership. The company is family-owned, based in Manchaca, and serves homeowners from Driftwood and Dripping Springs east to Bastrop and as far north as Georgetown. They specialize in storm-damage restoration and insurance claim navigation — categories where the gap between a well-prepared contractor and a fly-by-night storm chaser shows up as thousands of dollars on a settlement letter.

Strengths
  • GAF Master Elite — top 3% of US contractors
  • 20+ years serving South Austin & Hill Country
  • 232+ verified 5-star Google reviews
  • Free roof inspections & insurance claim help
  • Lifetime workmanship warranty
  • Family-owned, locally operated
Watch For
  • Schedule books out 2-3 weeks in peak storm season
  • Premium pricing — not the cheapest in market
