Replacing a roof is one of the bigger decisions a homeowner makes. Here is how to tell when it is time, what to look for in the company that does it, and how we handle a replacement from start to finish.
Not sure what shape your roof is in?
Free inspection scheduled within 24 hours. Free, with photos you keep.
When is it time?
Age
Architectural shingles are rated for 25 to 30 years, but in North Texas they often need replacing sooner. If yours is past 20 years, start planning.
Frequent repairs
If you are calling a roofer every year for a new leak, the roof is wearing out as a whole.
Missing, curling or cracked shingles
Shingles curling at the edges or cracking across several slopes mean the material is breaking down.
Leaks and water damage
Stains on ceilings, damp insulation, or soft decking all mean water is getting through.
Hail or wind damage
A storm can end a roof's life at any age. Storm damage across the roof is usually replaced through insurance.
What to look for in a replacement contractor
Our replacement process
1. Free inspection
We inspect every slope and the attic, photograph what we find, and tell you whether it is a replacement, a repair or an insurance claim.
2. Choosing materials
We install GAF, Owens Corning, CertainTeed, Atlas and IKO shingles, including impact-resistant and designer lines. We bring physical samples so you can see colors against your brick or siding, and we handle HOA approval if your neighborhood requires it.
3. Insurance (if it applies)
If a storm caused the damage, we meet your adjuster, go through the estimate with you and send supplements for anything missed.
4. Tear-off and preparation
We protect landscaping, tear off the old roof, replace bad decking, and install underlayment, leak barrier and drip edge.
5. Installation
New flashing, vent boots and ventilation, then shingles installed to the manufacturer's specifications. Most houses take one or two days.
6. Cleanup and final walkthrough
We haul off debris, run magnetic sweepers for nails across the yard and driveway, and walk the finished roof with you. You get the final photos, invoice and warranty paperwork.
