Services
Our roofing team repairs a wide range of roofing problems, from damaged shingles to leaks around porches and chimneys. We also restore roofs affected by severe weather and animal-related damage. Missing shingles, flashing, and ventilation pieces are carefully replaced to keep your roof functioning properly. Addressing roofing concerns early helps minimize further damage and protects your property from more expensive repairs later. 
We specialize in replacing residential roofing systems, including shingle, metal, flat, and TPO roofs. Our team understands that many homeowners are uncertain about the difference between needing repairs and requiring a full replacement. Once we complete a roof inspection, we will recommend the best way to address the issue while clearly explaining the reasoning behind our recommendation. 
We provide comprehensive storm damage inspections to help homeowners uncover roofing damage caused by severe weather conditions. Hidden issues can become more costly over time, so our inspections are designed to identify problems early. Texas weather can place unexpected stress on roofing systems, and we are committed to helping protect your investment. We also assist customers with roof repairs or replacements connected to insurance claims and understand the Austin process. 
Since 2005, Driftwood Builders Roofing has provided trusted siding installation and repair services for homeowners seeking durable exterior solutions. We repair siding affected by storms and install long-lasting systems that improve both protection and curb appeal. Every project is approached with dependable craftsmanship, careful attention to detail, and straightforward customer guidance. 
Our Austin, Texas painting delivers interior and exterior services designed for durable, long-lasting finishes in harsh climates. We ensure careful preparation, clean protected areas, and minimal disruption throughout every project experience. We recommend painting when surfaces are peeling, cracking, fading, or when preparing to sell update appearance. Our work enhances curb appeal and provides protection. People

Nick Riley and his crew are wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend them. They are honest, hard working and give fair estimates on the work to be done. They also went the extra mile to diagnose any problems that should be addressed with our roof in addition to the problem that already existed. Guillermo is a fantastic foreman as well. He explains things well and took his time to make sure that everything was done properly. I highly recommend Driftwood Builders Roofing and the Nick Riley, Guillermo crew.

What an amazing experience! Chris and Nicholas had great communication, we're highly professional, and their workers were efficient, fast, and cleaned up all the leftover debris. I have already recommended them to my coworkers and friends. They also worked directly with my Travelers insurance and made sure the claim was approved.

Nice people
Not best at communication. Different shingle than ordered showed up at the house, to find out the one we thought we ordered was going to cost much more than quoted. They did pay attention to detail, corners in eves not covered properly and rodents got in, hammer mark metal edging.
The roof doesn’t leak, but if I had to do over again, it would not be with them.

I have been a customer of Driftwood Builders Roofing for many years now. Todd and his team are a fabulous set of professionals who have delivered every project of mine with utmost quality and care. Todd goes out of his way to understand your needs and budget and proposes a solution that optimizes both.
I have always had a seamless experience working with Todd and his team for the last 10 years now. The team showcased their professionalism and capability during the hail storm that hit our house in Spring 2024. Multiple neighborhood houses had roof damages and insurance claims were a painful bottleneck for most of the home owners. Todd's leadership during this time in assessing the roof damages for the impacted people and his guidance in insurance filing was instrumental in getting the claims settled fast. He also completed roof replacement work for multiple houses within a very short time - within promised schedule and estimates.
Driftwood Builders Roofing company has earned my trust and business for all future roofing work. I highly recommend this company to all patrons who are considering roofing jobs for their homes & offices.

Great experience with Driftwood Builders Roofing, from start to finish. Chris was very patient with answering all my questions and concerns. He walked me through the entire process, including insurance claim and paperwork. He and his crew provided excellent service during the roof replacement. Prompt to respond and address some issues post-installation. I definitively recommend them.

Nathan made a fantastic metal roof happen for us. The first mark of excellence with Driftwood Builders is their obvious respect for their employees. The metal crew were professional and knowledgeable, and everyone was kind to each other! My 50 year old roof needed some structural improvements with the rafters, and they quickly rebuilt the corner of my collapsing roof without any damage to the fascia or siding. The crew also replaced all of the wood on an old free standing porch before they installed the metal roof. They transformed that rotting roof into a beautiful outdoor space! Nathan also coordinated with their gutter subcontractors to install matching galvanized aluminum gutters. Everything is beautiful! I really trust this company!

The Driftwood Builders Roofing company has an exceptional team that made my experience wonderfully pleasant and stress free. From their team who assesses the damage to their Office Manager and installation crew, they were all respectful, resourceful, and a pleasure to work with. I am very pleased with my roof and their customer service. I would highly recommend them to my friends and family.

I recently hired Driftwood Builders for a roofing project, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results! From the very first consultation, it was clear that Todd was a true professional. He took the time to understand my needs and provided expert advice on the best options for my home.
The work was completed in just one day, which was incredibly impressive! His team was punctual, efficient, and clearly skilled at what they do. They took great care to ensure that everything was done perfectly, and they left the site clean afterward.
I highly recommend Driftwood Builders to anyone in need of roofing services.
Thank you, Todd and team, for a job well done!

After the huge hailstorm earlier this year, I got quotes from five different companies. Sure the quotes were very similar but Chris from Driftwood came out, SHOWED me what the other roofing companies had done incorrectly in my neighborhood, AND for no cost at all fixed a slightly more than minor leak on my roof without me even committing to Driftwood for the final reroofing. They were fast and clean. Very glad I picked Driftwood.

Chris S. was the project manager who worked on replacing our old roof with a new roof in May 2024. Chris and his team worked tirelessly and did a very good job. They removed the leftover material and cleaned the area thoroughly.
It is almost a year now since our roof was replaced and our roof is as good as new; the recent strong wind did not affect the shingles at all. Chris came out and checked our roof after the recent wind storms. Chris is always responsive when we have some questions and he is very knowledgeable in his job.

I love my new roof! A long time friend of mine recommended Driftwood Builders Roofing. I'm so glad she did. Tom Baker oversaw the job & helped me with some of the decision making. He was so pleasant and explained in detail how the entire project would play out. The work crew was amazing. Don't know how they removed old roof and put new one on so quickly...AND no trash, nails, etc. left behind! Very smooth and professional job all the way around!

I feel so good about my new roof. Driftwood Builders had come highly recommended and I soon found out why. Every step was clearly explained, both in Todd’s original presentation and in Christina’s follow up at scheduling. I knew just what to expect. The crew were on time and worked tirelessly, in spite of the 107 degree temps. I had also needed quite a bit of facia replaced and they took care of that, including the painting. They even agreed to remove old gutters. Jose really went above and beyond to get those extras done. I could not have asked for a better experience. The roof is beautiful, well done, and I love it.
