Expert Roof Installation and Replacement Service in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metropolitan Area

Most residential roof installations complete in 1-3 days depending on roof size, complexity, and material choice. A standard single-story home with asphalt shingles typically requires one to two days from tearoff through final cleanup. Larger homes, steep roof pitches, multiple stories, or complex architectural features like dormers and valleys extend the timeline. Metal roofing installation generally takes longer than asphalt due to precision requirements. Commercial installations vary more widely based on building size and roof access. We provide specific timelines during your consultation based on your property’s characteristics.

Every roof installation includes our 10-year workmanship warranty covering all labor and installation-related issues, significantly longer than the industry standard 1-5 years. Material warranties vary by product but typically range from 25-50 years, with some premium shingles offering limited lifetime coverage. As GAF Master Elite contractors, we can offer enhanced Golden Pledge warranties on qualifying systems that cover both materials and workmanship for up to 50 years. Metal roofing typically includes 40-year paint warranties and longer structural warranties. We register all warranties on your behalf and provide complete documentation.

We have extensive experience working with insurance companies on storm damage roof replacements and will help throughout the entire claims process. We provide detailed damage documentation with photographs that support your claim, meet with insurance adjusters to explain the full scope of necessary work, and advocate for proper claim settlements that cover complete replacement when needed. Many clients don’t realize their storm damage qualifies for replacement, and we help them understand coverage they’re entitled to. We can work within insurance budgets while maintaining quality standards.

You don’t need to be present during installation, though many homeowners prefer being available for the initial walkthrough and final inspection. We coordinate timing before crews arrive, communicate throughout the day about progress, and reach out immediately if we discover anything requiring your input. The actual installation work happens entirely on your roof exterior, so there’s no need for interior access except if we need attic inspection. Just ensure we have driveway access for our equipment and dumpster, and that pets are secured safely away from the work area.

Discovering damaged plywood or structural issues during tear off is common, especially on older roofs or those with previous leak history. We photograph all deck damage, explain the extent and cause, and provide clear pricing for necessary repairs before proceeding. You’ll never receive surprise bills for work done without approval. Most deck repairs involve replacing individual plywood sheets or sections, typically adding a few hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on the extent. We can often get insurance to cover storm-related deck damage. All deck repairs must be completed before new roofing goes down to ensure structural integrity.

Material selection depends on your priorities regarding lifespan, initial cost, energy efficiency, and aesthetic preferences. Asphalt shingles offer the lowest initial cost, good performance for 25-30 years, and dozens of color and style options. Metal roofing costs more upfront but lasts 50+ years, reduces cooling costs through superior reflectivity, and handles severe weather better. Tile provides exceptional durability and distinctive appearance but costs significantly more and requires structural support for the additional weight. We help you analyze total lifetime costs, not just initial investment, and explain which materials best suit your specific situation.

We take extensive precautions to protect your landscaping, vehicles, and property throughout the installation process. Tarps cover flower beds and shrubs near the house, plywood protects delicate areas that need foot traffic, and we establish clear paths for material movement. Our dumpster placement considers your driveway protection and access needs. Multiple magnetic sweeps catch falling nails before they damage tires or bare feet. While some minor landscape impact is unavoidable when removing thousands of pounds of roofing materials, we minimize disturbance and repair any damage that occurs. Most clients are surprised how little evidence remains after our final cleanup.

Matching existing shingle colors can be challenging because roofing materials fade over time and manufacturers discontinue colors. If you’re replacing only one section to match the rest of your roof, we bring samples to find the closest available match, though perfect matches aren’t always possible with aged materials. For complete replacements, you can choose any current manufacturer color. We recommend selecting colors that complement your home’s exterior and neighborhood aesthetic rather than exactly matching what you had. We provide large samples you can view on your property in different light conditions before making final selections.

We handle all permitting requirements for roof installations, including application submission, fee payment, and coordination with building inspectors. Permit costs are typically included in our estimates. Most municipalities require permits for roof replacements to ensure work meets building codes. We schedule all required inspections, meet with inspectors as needed, and ensure your installation passes without complications. Our familiarity with local requirements and inspector expectations means smooth approval processes. You’ll receive copies of all permits and inspection approvals for your records.

Installation timing depends on our current project schedule, material availability, and weather conditions. During peak season, start times may be 2-4 weeks out, while off-season projects might begin within days. Once you approve our estimate, we order materials, schedule your installation, and provide specific dates. We maintain some flexibility for emergency installations when storm damage requires immediate attention. Weather can shift schedules, as we won’t install new roofing in rain or high winds. We communicate proactively about any delays and reschedule promptly when conditions improve.
