Residential Roofing in Austin, TX
Most Austin homeowners think about their roof when something goes wrong. A leak shows up during a spring storm. An adjuster walks the neighborhood after hail. A buyer’s inspector flags the roof two weeks before closing. At each point, the question is the same: who do you trust to tell you the truth about your roof?

Residential Roofing Services in Austin
Roof Replacement
When age, storm damage or repeated leaks catch up with your roof, replacement resets the whole system: decking, underlayment, flashing and shingles. Most Austin homes take one day. Steep or complex roofs take two. Most jobs start 5 to 7 days after you sign. See pricing, materials and timelines on our roof replacement page.
Roof Repair
Most roof problems do not need a new roof. A failed pipe boot, lifted shingles or cracked flashing around a chimney costs a fraction of a replacement to fix. We repair what needs repair and tell you when a patch only delays the inevitable. See common repairs and costs on our roof repair page.
Storm and Hail Damage
Hail bruises shingles without breaking them, and the damage rarely shows from the ground. We walk the full roof, document every hit and separate storm damage from normal wear. Learn more on our hail damage and storm damage pages.
Insurance Claim Documentation
We inspect and photograph the damage, meet your adjuster on the roof and submit supplements for missed line items. You stay in control of your claim. Read the full roof insurance claim process before you file.
Roof Inspections
Our inspections are free. You get photos of every slope, a written summary and an honest call on repair, replacement or no work at all. Schedule one after any hailstorm, before you buy or sell a home and every few years on an aging roof.
Roofing Materials We Install
Asphalt shingles. The most common roof in Austin. Architectural shingles fit most budgets and most home styles. Impact-resistant Class 4 shingles hold up better against hail, and many insurers offer a premium discount for them.
Metal roofing. Standing seam and stone-coated steel cost more up front and last far longer than asphalt. Metal reflects heat and handles hail better. A strong choice if you plan to stay in your home long term.
Tile roofing. Clay and concrete tile fit Spanish and Mediterranean-style homes across the Austin area. Tile lasts for decades, but repairs require a crew with tile experience. The wrong foot traffic cracks tiles.
Flat roofs. Many Austin homes have low-slope sections over additions, garages or porches. These sections need TPO or modified bitumen, not shingles, and proper drainage design.
What Austin Weather Does to Your Roof
Austin roofs wear out faster than roofs in milder climates. Four conditions drive most of the damage we see:
- Hail. Spring storms move through Travis and Williamson counties most years. Hail bruises the shingle mat and speeds up granule loss.
- Heat. Long stretches of triple-digit summer days bake shingles, dry out sealants and crack rubber pipe boots.
- Wind. Severe thunderstorms lift shingle edges and break the seal strips holding them down.
- Freezes. Rare, but hard. Winter Storm Uri in 2021 and the February 2023 ice storm loaded roofs with ice and dropped tree limbs across the metro.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a residential roof replacement cost in Austin?
Your price depends on roof size, pitch, material and decking condition. Get a fast range from our instant estimator or see the full breakdown in our Austin roof replacement cost guide.
Should I repair or replace my roof?
A single leak or a few damaged shingles usually calls for a repair. A roof past 20 years old, with widespread granule loss or repeated leaks in different spots, usually calls for replacement. Our inspection gives you a clear answer with photos.
How urgent is a roof leak?
Treat any active leak as urgent. Water soaks decking, insulation and drywall every day the leak runs. Call (512) 746-7090 and we will tarp and document the damage the same visit.
Will insurance cover my roof replacement?
If hail or wind caused the damage, most Texas homeowners policies cover replacement minus your deductible. Your payout depends on your policy type and deductible. Avoid the common roof insurance claim mistakes before you file.
Do I need to leave home during the roofing work?
No. Expect noise during tear-off and keep pets and cars clear of the drip line. Most homes finish in one day.
When is the best time to replace a roof in Austin?
Fall is best for most homeowners, but we install year-round with no summer slowdown. See our guide on the best time to replace a roof in Austin.
