The Hub City's Trusted Storm Restoration Experts
Lubbock sits on the southwestern edge of Tornado Alley, making hail damage an annual reality for Hub City property owners. Since 2014, 5 Star Roofing has helped Lubbock homeowners and businesses recover from storm damage with expert repairs, insurance claim assistance, and Class 4 impact-resistant replacements designed for the Llano Estacado's severe weather.
Why Does Lubbock Properties Need Expert Hail Damage Repair?
Lubbock, known as the "Hub City," sits at 3,202 feet elevation on the Llano Estacado—the southern end of the Great Plains. This geography places Lubbock directly in the path of severe thunderstorms that develop during spring and early summer. With a population of over 318,000, Lubbock County sees significant storm damage claims every year, particularly during the March-June hail season.
The city's position on the southwestern edge of Tornado Alley means severe weather is a regular occurrence. Supercell thunderstorms that form over the Caprock often produce large hail—sometimes exceeding golf ball size—along with damaging straight-line winds. These storms can cause widespread roof damage in minutes, affecting neighborhoods from the Texas Tech campus to the newer developments in South Lubbock.
5 Star Roofing has been serving Lubbock and the South Plains since 2014. We understand the specific roofing challenges that come with the region's semi-arid climate and severe weather patterns. Our team has helped hundreds of Lubbock property owners—including many Texas Tech rental properties—recover from storm damage with expert repairs and comprehensive warranty protection.

Why Is Lubbock's South Plains Position a Hail Hotspot?
Lubbock sits at the southern edge of the Texas hail belt where the Caprock Escarpment drops from the High Plains into the Rolling Plains below. This geographic transition zone creates atmospheric lifting that intensifies storm updrafts, producing some of the largest hailstones recorded in West Texas. Lubbock County averages 6 to 9 significant hail events per year, with the May 2023 supercell producing grapefruit-sized stones that caused over $400 million in insured losses across the metro area—one of the costliest single-city hail events in Texas history. Texas Tech University's National Wind Institute, located in Lubbock, has conducted extensive research on hail impact resistance that directly informed the development of Class 4 impact-resistant shingle standards. Their wind engineering research confirms that Lubbock's combination of hail frequency and wind intensity makes impact-resistant roofing materials not just recommended but essential for long-term property protection. 5 Star Roofing uses these research-backed material recommendations when advising Lubbock homeowners on replacement options after hail damage.
