Signs You Need a New Roof
How do you know when it's time to stop repairing and start replacing? Several indicators suggest your roof has reached the end of its useful life:
Age: Most asphalt shingle roofs in Tyler last 20-25 years. If your roof is approaching this age, it's time to start planning for replacement, even if it looks okay from the ground. Materials deteriorate from the inside out, and waiting until you have active leaks often means water has already damaged your decking and possibly your home's interior.
Widespread Damage: If storm damage or wear affects large portions of your roof, replacement often makes more financial sense than extensive repairs. Patching multiple areas can cost nearly as much as a new roof while leaving you with mismatched materials and continued vulnerability.
Structural Issues: Sagging areas indicate potential problems with your roof deck or underlying structure. These issues require addressing during a full replacement and can't be fixed with surface repairs.
Excessive Granule Loss: Finding excessive granules in your gutters means your shingles are losing their protective coating. This accelerates deterioration and reduces your roof's ability to protect against UV damage and water infiltration.
Roofing Material Options for Tyler Homes
We install a variety of roofing materials, each with distinct advantages for Tyler's climate:
Architectural (Dimensional) Shingles: The most popular choice for Tyler homeowners, architectural shingles offer excellent value with a 25-30 year lifespan. Their multi-layer construction provides superior wind resistance (up to 130 mph) and an attractive dimensional appearance. We install premium lines from GAF and CertainTeed that withstand Texas heat and storms.
Premium Designer Shingles: For homeowners wanting maximum curb appeal, designer shingles mimic the look of natural slate or cedar shakes at a fraction of the cost and weight. These premium options offer the best wind and impact ratings, making them ideal for storm-prone areas.
Metal Roofing: Growing in popularity across East Texas, metal roofs offer unmatched durability (40-70 year lifespan), excellent energy efficiency, and superior storm resistance. While the upfront cost is higher, metal roofing often proves more economical over time. Learn more about metal roofing options.
Our Roof Replacement Process
Every roof replacement begins with a thorough inspection. We examine your existing roof, check the decking condition from inside and outside, assess ventilation, and discuss your preferences and budget.
You'll receive a detailed written estimate including all materials, labor, and any necessary repairs to decking or ventilation. We explain your options clearly—no pressure, no confusing jargon. Take time to consider our proposal and ask any questions.
Once you approve the project, we schedule installation at a time convenient for you. Most residential roof replacements in Tyler complete in 1-3 days depending on size and complexity. Our crews arrive on time, work efficiently, and maintain a clean, safe job site throughout the project.
Installation Day: We start by protecting your landscaping and property. Old roofing materials are removed down to the deck, which we inspect for damage and repair as needed. New underlayment, flashing, and ice/water shield (where required) go down before the new shingles or metal panels. We install proper ventilation components and finish with ridge caps and final details.
Cleanup: We take cleanup seriously. Tarps catch debris during removal, and we use magnetic sweepers to collect every nail. We haul away all old materials and leave your property cleaner than we found it.
Final Walkthrough: Before we leave, we walk you through the completed roof, explain the warranty coverage, and answer any questions. You'll receive warranty documentation and our contact information for any future needs.
How Much Does a New Roof Cost in Tyler, TX?
