Original Brexteriors Web Apps

Roofing tools organized by who needs the answer

Brexteriors organized these tools around the person using them: homeowners planning a project, real estate agents trying to keep a transaction moving, insurance agents helping policyholders understand risk, and public adjusters or attorneys documenting storm and permit details. This Resources page now follows that same audience-first flow, with a short how-to guide before each tool.

Homeowners & Insurance Agents

1. Roof Insurance Premium Estimator

Is your roof putting your home insurance at risk? Texas carriers are paying close attention to roof age, claim history, roof material, deductibles, and local hail exposure. Use this estimator as a quick planning tool before renewal, shopping coverage, or scheduling inspection documentation.

How to use it

  1. Enter the property type, replacement cost, and roof age.
  2. Select the deductible and roofing material.
  3. Add Class 4 documentation, claims history, and local hail risk if known.
  4. Review the estimate and use it to decide whether an inspection or documentation package is needed.

Why it helps

  • Flags roof-age risk before a surprise non-renewal.
  • Explains how impact-resistant materials may affect premium exposure.
  • Gives agents and homeowners a clear conversation starter.
Next step: run the estimate, then schedule a roof inspection if the roof age or storm risk looks high.

Homeowners

2. Instant Roof Quote Tool

Need a fast roof replacement starting point without waiting on a callback? This tool is meant for homeowners who want a quick property-based estimate before deciding whether to book a full inspection.

How to use it

  1. Enter your contact information so the estimate can be sent and followed up on.
  2. Add the property address for roof data lookup.
  3. Review the generated range and save it for budgeting or insurance conversations.

Why it helps

  • Fast budget planning before a roof replacement conversation.
  • No climbing, measuring, or guessing from the driveway.
  • Creates a simple handoff to a professional inspection.
Next step: use the quote as a starting point, then confirm it with an inspection and exact roof takeoff.

Public Adjusters, Lawyers & Project Planners

3. DFW Permit Calculator

Every DFW city handles permit fees differently. This calculator helps estimate roofing permit and plan review costs for North Richland Hills, Fort Worth, Dallas, Keller, Grapevine, and nearby jurisdictions before a project scope is finalized.

How to use it

  1. Choose the city where the property is located.
  2. Enter the project valuation and building count if needed.
  3. Add plan review square footage if the city uses it.
  4. Use the result as a planning estimate, then verify with the jurisdiction.

Why it helps

  • Speeds up repair-scope and budget planning.
  • Helps document local code and permit considerations.
  • Gives adjusters, attorneys, and property owners a cleaner starting estimate.
Next step: calculate the estimate, then confirm current requirements with the city before filing.

Homeowners & Real Estate Agents

4. Simple Roofing Cost Estimator

Just need a quick ballpark? This lightweight estimator uses square footage, stories, roof pitch, complexity, material, waste, and overhead/profit to create a fast planning range. It is ideal for early budgeting, seller negotiations, option-period decisions, and material comparisons.

How to use it

  1. Enter the total floor square footage of the property.
  2. Select stories, pitch, complexity, and material type.
  3. Adjust waste allowance if the roof is simple or complex.
  4. Click Calculate Estimate and review the low-to-high range.

Why it helps

  • Produces a fast range in under a minute.
  • Useful for buyers, sellers, agents, and early project planning.
  • Works well before a precise roof measurement is available.
Next step: use this as a planning number, then schedule an inspection for exact measurements and condition details.

Homeowners, Agents, Insurance Pros & Claim Teams

5. Hail Visualization Tool

Was your neighborhood hit by hail? This visualizer lets you enter an address, choose a search radius and time window, then review nearby hail and wind reports that may support an inspection decision or claim timeline.

How to use it

  1. Enter the property address.
  2. Choose the time period and search radius.
  3. Review hail size, wind reports, distance, and dates near the property.
  4. Download or print the report for your project file.

Why it helps

  • Shows whether storm reports occurred near the property.
  • Helps connect inspection timing to storm dates.
  • Useful for homeowners, real estate transactions, agents, adjusters, and attorneys.
Next step: if the report shows 1.00 inch hail, strong winds, or repeated nearby storm activity, schedule a roof inspection.

Planning tools only. Final roof pricing, insurance treatment, storm findings, and repair recommendations require a property-specific inspection and written scope.
