  1. I will take the inversion table if it is still available.
  2. Yep. Most people have what would be considered damage and live for years without knowing or having any roof problems. It takes massive hail to do the type of damage that would require an immediate replacement. A good majority of the damaged roofs can go years without needing to be replaced unless they are old or a poor quality of shingle.
  3. I always advise at least giving it a shot with insurance before committing to paying out of pocket. You would be surprised to what I've seen bought, all depends on what insurance company you have and how the field adjuster is feeling that day. You don't need a roofer present for the adjuster meeting and it typically will not affect your policy if you file a claim and it is denied. Again, I can pull a hail report for you if you would like. Its free and I promise I'm not trying to sell you a roof, I'm booked months out right now. It will tell you what wind/hail events you have had at your address for the last 10 years
  4. ^^^This. A good majority of homes in Austin have what could be considered hail damage and most homeowners have no idea until someone gets up there and looks. Depending on where in south Austin chances are you have damage. Feel free to pm me your address and I can run a hail report to your address and give you an idea. Even if you don't have it now, you might be able to squeeze some more time out of it until you can get it bought. I have a list of 300 customers waiting for hail to hit, no reason paying out of pocket if you can help it.
  5. I have a few customers that I have replaced their roofs twice in 18 months or less. Typically I would have told them to wait but they were missing vents, flashings, etc.
  6. They are already in town from the storm that came through town last month and I can assure you more are on the way. I have several customers that started receiving calls immediately after the storm from all centers all over North America. Couple words of advise: Go with someone you know and trust Don’t sign anything even if they tell you it’s required for them to do an inspection. Several companies will try and get you to sign a contingency form disguised as a release. This will never hold up in court but could be a pain to fight. Go local and check for proof they actually are local. There are companies that set up temporary offices to seem local and will skip town once they hit their quota.
  7. We had literally just finished installing a new roof when the hail hit. Thankfully it was in Georgetown and was on the far edge of the storm. If you are in an area that got hit hard, prepare for every roofing company in the country to come knocking on your door. Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions.
  8. The 183 store still had a small selection of leftover Specialized tires when I was there a couple weeks ago. I would call and ask what they have available.
  9. Waco was on the list of possible stops as well yesterday. However, the wife booked us an air bnb for a getaway weekend a mile from cameron park. She was not happy when i loaded the bike up this afternoon.
  10. Took the mtb with me on a business trip up to Dallas and hit Northshore for the first time since the 90's. Got lost on the west side because I was watching the Garmin instead of going by memory. Not that I wouldn't have got even more lost without the Garmin, it provides a great excuse though. It was great seeing what that trail has evolved into.
  11. Ditto. Going to finish out this weeks prescribed indoor rides by Saturday and hope the trails clear out for a long MTB ride on Sunday.
  12. I have tried this and the compressed air trick and finally said screw it and broke out the razor. Maybe it's my handle bars, I'm not sure. I have had success removing them off my daughter's bike but it is a total pain on my blur. I usually replace them every few months anyway so its not that big of a deal.
  13. I usually order from ESI direct. Last time I ordered they included a 30% code: ESI30RACERS. I love the grips but I wish they were a little easier to remove. I have burned through a few pairs replacing brakes, shifters, etc.
  14. I upgraded to the new Sram AXS with the 10-52 a couple months ago and like it. I agree that it is overkill for most of what we ride around here but I was thankful to be able to noodle up some of the hills when I did the Rattler last month. I also like it on the super steep technical climbs. It is not for everyone, but it does have some value in certain situations.
  15. https://www.sunandski.com/c/santa-cruz-bikes Noticed this a couple weeks ago while searching for a BMX for my nephew. Not sure if they previously sold Santa Cruz in other locations outside of Austin and San Antonio but found it interesting.
