Most roofing questions get answered badly, by a search result written to sell you a roof or by a contractor standing in your driveway after a storm. This resource center is the other thing: straight explanations of how roofs fail, what inspections and claims actually involve, and how to tell a real problem from a sales pitch.

Everything here is written for Central Texas specifically. Hail, brutal UV, wind-driven rain and 100-degree summers wear a roof differently than they do anywhere else, and generic national roofing advice misses most of what matters here. If you're in Pflugerville, Round Rock, Hutto, Manor, or Austin, this is written for your roof.

Where to start

After a storm: start with the storm and hail damage guide, then the insurance claim guide. Texas claim deadlines are shorter than most homeowners expect, and documentation gathered in the first week is worth more than anything gathered later.

Actively leaking: go straight to the roof leak guide for what to do in the first hour, then call us at 512-920-3960. We tarp to stop water intrusion, and our emergency roof repair page explains what happens next.

Buying or selling a home: the inspection checklist explains what a thorough inspection covers and what a two-line general home inspection report leaves out.

Planning a replacement: read the materials guide and the warranty explainer before you compare bids. Two estimates with the same total can differ enormously in what's actually covered.

Just want the roof to last: the maintenance guide covers the seasonal work that adds years to a roof's life.
