A planned town built around golf
Trophy Club roofing questions start in a town with an unusual origin. It was laid out in the 1970s as one of the first planned communities in Texas, centered on the only golf course Ben Hogan ever designed, and it incorporated as a town on January 19, 1985.
Today Trophy Club is home to 13,688 people (2020 census). It sits along State Highway 114 west of DFW Airport and south of the western reach of Grapevine Lake. Nearly all of the town is in Denton County, with a very small part in Tarrant County. Its oldest streets date from those early golf-course years, and later neighborhoods filled in around them, so roof ages vary widely from one block to the next.
DFW Expert Roofers is a free phone line, not a contractor. It connects you with an independent, locally owned roofing company that takes Trophy Club calls. That company sees the roof, sets the price and pulls the town permit.

Trophy Club's re-roof permit, step by step
- The roofer registers with the town. Free, good for one year, with a driver's license copy and proof of insurance naming the Town of Trophy Club. The town's pages describe both an email form and the online portal, so the roofer should confirm the current method.
- The re-roof goes on the trade permit form. Trophy Club uses one form for re-roofs and several other trades, submitted to permitting@trophyclub.org.
- The fee is paid. The town's fee schedule lists a re-roofing permit at $85.
- Work starts once the permit is issued. Ask for the permit number before tear-off.
- Questions go to Community Development. Call 682-237-2917. Town Hall is at 1 Trophy Wood Drive.
Storms that hit Trophy Club roofs
March 14, 2024: hail up to about 3 inches
The Texas State Climatologist's summary for the month records the largest hail of that day, 3 inches, in Denton County. A USA Today Network storm report citing the National Weather Service in Fort Worth put stones of roughly 1.5 to 3 inches in Trophy Club, Roanoke, Argyle, Corinth and Highland Village, and NBC DFW ran reader photos of hail in Trophy Club. Stones that size can crack shingles, split ridge caps and dent metal vents.
Lightning and roof fires
CBS News Texas reported a Sunday storm in which lightning set five Trophy Club homes on fire. No one was hurt, but two of the houses lost their roofs and second floors. A lightning strike is a fire and insurance matter first: call 911, then your insurer, before anyone talks about the roof.
Leave the roof to the roofer. A wet or storm-hit roof is slippery, and damaged decking can give way, so keep off it and keep the ladder put away. Stay clear of any downed power line and report it to Oncor or your local electric utility, or call 911. Inside, pull furniture and electronics away from the drip, set out a bucket or towels, and keep everyone out of a room where the ceiling is sagging. Take photos from the yard and from inside, then call your insurance company and a roofer.

Questions for a Trophy Club roofer
- When does your Trophy Club contractor registration expire?
- Whose name goes on the $85 re-roof permit, and can I get a copy before tear-off?
- Does my HOA need to approve the shingle color or style before you order?
- Can you show me damage from the March 2024 storm in photos, separate from older wear?
- If the roof is over a golf course lot, how will you protect the yard and fence during tear-off?
- Will your insurer send me the same proof of coverage you gave the town?
Your deductible is yours to pay. The Texas Department of Insurance warns that a contractor may not waive your deductible, rebate it, or pad the estimate to cover it, and that a contract of $1,000 or more paid with insurance money must include a notice that you owe the deductible. Your insurer may ask for proof you paid it. A contractor also may not act as a public adjuster on a property it works on or may work on. If a roofer offers to "take care of" the deductible, hire someone else.
How the call works
- Dial the lineAn automated assistant picks up (469) 649-7066 any time and asks what you need. The same number also takes air conditioning, heating and pressure washing calls, so say "roof".
- Tell it about the roofHail, a drip in the ceiling, shingles in the yard, a tree limb, or an aging roof you want checked, plus your town and how soon you need someone.
- Get transferredThe call goes to an independent roofing company that is locally owned and works in Dallas-Fort Worth. It hears a quick summary of your call before it answers.
- Work with that companyIt inspects, prices and does the job, and you pay it (or your insurer does, as you arrange). If it cannot pick up, it gets your name, number, town and need so it can call you back.
Hail marks from the 2024 storm, a leak near a skylight, or an older roof near the end of its life? Call and describe it. A roofing company that serves Trophy Club inspects it in person and gives you a written quote.
