Common questions

Questions homeowners ask most

Is $30,000 too much for a roof?

It depends on the roof, not the total. Divide the quote by the roof’s measured squares. On a 24 square shingle roof, $30,000 is $1,250 a square; on 30 squares it is $1,000. Our architectural shingle range is $545 to $670 a square and Class 4 is $600 to $735. Far above that, ask what else is in it. The full answer is in Roof Cost Factors: is $30,000 too much for a roof.

Can you repair just part of a roof?

Yes. A roof can be repaired one slope, one valley or one section at a time when the damage is contained and the rest of the roof has life left. The code Round Rock area cities adopt allows repair; it does not force a new roof. What decides it is the surrounding shingles’ condition and whether matching material still exists. The full answer is in Roof Cost Factors: can you repair just part of a roof.

How bad does hail damage have to be to replace a roof?

Hail has to cause functional damage, not just marks. A functional hit fractures the mat under the granules, so the shingle leaks or fails early; when those hits are spread across the slopes, replacement is the honest call. A few bruises on one slope usually mean repair or nothing. How many hits trigger replacement is your carrier’s threshold, not law. The full answer is in Hail & Insurance Guide: how bad does hail damage have to be to replace a roof.

Will insurance pay for hail damage to a roof?

Usually, if your policy carries wind and hail coverage; check the declarations page. The Texas Department of Insurance puts it plainly: your insurer should pay for hail damage if you have wind and hail coverage. What is actually paid comes from your policy: replacement cost or actual cash value, the deductible, and any cosmetic or roof age exclusion. The full answer is in Hail & Insurance Guide: will insurance pay for hail damage to a roof.

What is a roof tune-up?

A roof tune-up is professional preventive maintenance: sealant renewal on exposed fasteners, pipe boots, and vent flashings, re-securing lifted shingles, dressing flashing, clearing valleys and gutter lines, and a documented condition report you keep. It handles the small wear points before Texas heat and hail season turn them into leaks. The full answer is in Roof Maintenance Guide: what is a roof tune-up.

What is the 25% rule for roofing?

The 25 percent rule is a Florida building code rule, not a Texas one. Florida’s Existing Building Code bars repairing, replacing or recovering more than 25 percent of a roof in any 12 month period unless the whole roof meets current code. The residential code Texas cities adopt has no such provision. In Texas, repair size is a condition call. The full answer is in Roof Cost Factors: what is the 25% rule for roofing.

Why is this education free?

Because a homeowner who understands the roof makes better decisions, asks better questions and is harder to mislead. Every guide here is free to read, with no form and no phone number asked. When you want eyes on your property, the choice to call is yours.
