What Round Rock homeowners should know about exterior work
Local Paint & Exterior Note
Many Round Rock HOAs require pre-approval for exterior color changes, document existing conditions before any paint or repair project to avoid disputes.
Sequence Matters
Exterior painting and repair work should follow, not precede, roofing documentation. Condition notes from a roof visit often surface fascia rot, gutter separation, and trim damage that affect painting scope and cost before a single brush stroke is applied.

What Round Rock homeowners say
The Roof Shepherd did an amazing job — the company and, more importantly, the crew were fast and reliable. They had our roof and vents done in a timely manner after the recent storms. We upgraded after all the hail and high winds we’ve had over the last few years, and to our surprise it brought a discount on our insurance as well. The house looks great. It was the easiest choice on home maintenance we have ever made. Hands down, I would choose them again and would recommend them to anyone.
Owner Response
Valerie, thank you so much for the kind review and for trusting The Roof Shepherd with your roof and ventilation work. I’m glad we were able to help after the recent storms and get everything handled in a timely way. Upgrading to an impact-rated roofing system can make a real difference, especially after years of hail and high winds, and it’s great to hear the insurance discount was a helpful surprise as well. I also appreciate you recognizing the crew — fast, reliable, and respectful work matters, and I’m grateful they represented the company well on your home. Thank you again for the opportunity to serve your family.
If you’re looking for a roof replacement, look no further than the Roof Shepherd himself, David. A few months ago, an exterminator discovered a hole in our roof while checking for squirrels. David and his crew went out of their way and placed a solid, temporary patch over the hole. David and his crew did this at 11:30 at night, hours before severe weather hit the area. David did this right at the beginning of the process which most roofers would never bother to do. David and the crew did an excellent job, along with the full replacement of our gutters!!! The roof looks great and we are extremely happy with the result. David stayed in constant contact throughout the process and explained how to smoothly get things done with the insurance company, which we all know can be a pain. David’s knowledge in roofing is second to none, so if you are close to replacement, or have questions about the process, trust me, call the Roof Shepherd!!!
Owner Response
Lonnie, thank you for the incredible review and for trusting The Roof Shepherd team with your home in Cedar Park. That late-night emergency response was definitely one of those real roofing moments, but the goal was simple: protect the home before the weather moved in and keep a roof opening from turning into interior damage. I’m grateful we were able to help at the very beginning of the process, then follow it through with the full re-roof and gutter replacement. I also appreciate you mentioning the communication side of the job. Roofing and insurance-related work can be stressful, so my goal is always to keep homeowners informed, prepared, and protected from start to finish. Thank you again for the trust, the kind words, and the opportunity to take care of your home.
David did an excellent job replacing our roof and gutters. I was very impressed with how clean they left the yard. They used good quality underlayment, unlike the previous roofer. Great communication. Our insurance adjuster knew who he was and it helped for a very smooth claim process. Highly recommend!
Owner Response
Dr. Liboiron, thank you for the thoughtful review. It was a privilege to help with your roof replacement and gutter installation in Pflugerville, Texas. I’m glad the communication, cleanup, underlayment selection, and overall installation process stood out to you. We try to treat every roofing project with clear documentation, quality materials, and a clean jobsite from start to finish. I also appreciate you mentioning how smooth the process felt. That kind of trust matters, especially when a homeowner is navigating a roof replacement and coordinating details along the way. Thank you again for allowing me to serve your family.
