PERMITS

Dallas Permitting & Inspections ↗

Dallas lists residential permit applications and its DallasNow portal. Provide the property address and describe whether the work affects roof covering, decking, or structural framing so staff can identify the correct permit.

214-948-4480

Service scope: the municipal permitting jurisdiction. Verify your exact address with the department; a mailing address is not a boundary determination. Official source checked September 20, 2026.

INSURANCE

Start with your insurer’s claims department

Use the claims contact on the policy or the insurer’s official website. An independent agent is not necessarily the insurer handling your existing claim.

For statewide insurance questions: Texas Department of Insurance, 800-252-3439. This is regulatory assistance, not claim intake.
