Services
Roof Inspection
Our comprehensive roof inspections identify hidden damage and potential issues before they escalate. Certified technicians examine shingles, flashing, gutters, and attic ventilation while documenting hail or storm damage for insurance claims. Using drone imaging and moisture detection tools, we provide detailed reports with photos and repair recommendations. Regular inspections help extend roof lifespan and maintain warranty validity while preventing costly emergency repairs during Austin's severe weather seasons.
Roof Replacement
We handle complete roof tear-offs and installations for residential and commercial properties using premium materials like GAF shingles and standing seam metal roofing. Our process includes decking repairs, ice dam protection, and proper ventilation to meet Texas building codes. With options for asphalt, tile, and energy-efficient metal roofs, we ensure lasting protection against hail, high winds, and extreme heat while enhancing property value through improved curb appeal and energy savings.
Storm Damage Repair
Our 24/7 storm response team specializes in hail and wind damage restoration across Central Texas. We perform temporary tarping, water extraction, and permanent repairs while assisting with insurance claims documentation. Using industry-standard assessment techniques, we identify hidden damage to roof decking and flashing systems. Our priority is securing properties against further damage while navigating insurance processes to maximize claim approvals for homeowners and businesses.
Metal Roofing
We install durable metal roofing solutions designed for Austin's climate, including standing seam, snap lock, and exposed fastener systems. These energy-efficient options reflect solar radiation to reduce cooling costs while resisting fire, pests, and corrosion. Our metal roofs come with lifetime warranties and are available in various colors and profiles to match architectural styles. We also offer retrofit options that install over existing roofs, minimizing waste and reducing project timelines by up to 40% compared to traditional replacements.
Water Damage Restoration
Our IICRC-certified technicians handle complete water damage restoration following roof leaks or storms. Using industrial air movers and HEPA-filtered air scrubbers, we dry structures completely to prevent mold growth. The process includes damaged drywall replacement, antimicrobial treatments, and content cleaning services. We coordinate with roofing repairs to address root causes while maintaining clear communication with insurance adjusters to ensure comprehensive property recovery.
