Pilot Point sits in the part of North Texas that hail finds year after year. Storms build west of here in spring, track east across open country toward Ray Roberts, and arrive with nothing in the way to weaken them. Roofing in Pilot Point, TX is shaped by that pattern more than by anything else.
Cannon Roofing has worked Denton County and greater North Texas since 1994. We handle houses in the older neighborhoods around the square, newer homes on the edges of town, and the barns and shops that come with horse-country acreage.

Hail Country, Season After Season
The hail calendar here runs hardest from April into June, but Pilot Point catches storms outside that window too. What makes repeated hail so damaging is that the roof rarely fails on the day it is hit. A stone crushes granules and fractures the fiberglass mat underneath; the shingle stays in place, sheds water for another season or two, and then splits.
That delay is why an inspection right after a storm matters, and why a roof that took hail two years running can be in far worse shape than its age suggests. If your property has been through more than one event, our guide to multiple hail storms in the same year covers how the damage stacks up.
Start your own check on the ground. Dented gutters, dinged downspouts, bruised vent caps, and flattened air conditioner fins tell you the stones were large enough to matter before anyone gets on a ladder.
Older Homes Near the Square
Pilot Point's older housing stock brings roofing details you do not find in new construction: steeper pitches, plank decking rather than sheet decking, tall brick chimneys, and rooflines that grew as the house was added onto.
Those additions are where leaks live. Step flashing at a wall junction, counterflashing let into brick, and the transition where a porch roof dies into siding all have to be built correctly, and all of them get covered in sealant by contractors in a hurry. On plank decking, we also check board spacing and rot before new underlayment goes down, since fasteners that miss solid wood will back out within a few seasons of thermal cycling.
Acreage, Barns, and Outbuildings
North and east of town, properties run to acreage — arenas, run-in sheds, hay barns, and equipment shops. Those metal roofs almost never fail in the middle of a panel. They fail at exposed fasteners whose neoprene washers have hardened, at ridge closures gone brittle, and at sidewall flashing where water sheets against the wall.
We inspect the outbuildings while we are on the property, because it is far cheaper than scheduling a second trip and because a leaking barn roof damages hay, tack, and equipment quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if the last hailstorm actually hurt my roof? Check the soft metals first. Dents on gutters, downspouts, vent caps, and air conditioner fins mean the stones were big enough to bruise shingles. From there, only a hands-on inspection of each slope will confirm the extent.
Do you work on older homes near the Pilot Point square? Yes. Older homes here often have steep pitches, plank decking, brick chimneys, and multiple additions. We inspect the decking during tear-off and rebuild chimney and wall flashing properly rather than patching it with sealant.
Can you reroof a barn or a run-in shed? We do a lot of that work. Metal barn roofs usually fail at the fasteners and closures long before the panels wear out, and we can repair or replace them on the same visit that we handle the house.
