Hail and wind in Bell County
Roof claims are what most homeowners here actually end up filing, and roof coverage is where policies differ most. Some pay to replace a damaged roof; others pay its depreciated value, which on an older roof can be a fraction of what a new one costs. A separate, larger wind and hail deductible is common.
Over the last 10 years, Bell County recorded 105 hail events of one inch or larger — the size at which hail starts doing damage worth claiming — along with 51 damaging wind events and 9 tornadoes. The largest hail recorded measured 5.68 inches.
