Roof Replacement and New Roof Installation in Houston

Plan on 1 to 3 days for most residential roof replacements in Pearland and Houston. Larger homes, steep roofs, multiple tear-off layers, tile or slate, and replacing damaged decking can add time, and a rainy forecast can push the start date. Stone Castle Roofing puts the expected schedule in your written proposal so you know before the first truck arrives.

Insurance may pay for a new roof when a covered event, such as hail or wind, damaged it badly enough to need replacement. Whether it does is up to your insurance company. Stone Castle Roofing's part is to photograph the damage, provide a written estimate, meet your adjuster on the roof and install the roof once your insurer settles the claim. You are responsible for your deductible.

For homes, the full menu: architectural asphalt shingles, including Class 4 impact-resistant shingles, standing seam and exposed fastener metal, clay and concrete tile, and natural slate. Commercial buildings get TPO, modified bitumen or metal systems. Stone Castle Roofing walks you through lifespan, storm performance and cost so the material fits your Houston-area home and budget.

Spread-out damage across several slopes, soft decking, leaks that keep coming back after repairs, or shingles that are curling, cracking and shedding granules with age all point toward a new roof. One leak or a handful of missing shingles usually points toward a repair. We can tell you which side of that line your roof is on after a free inspection.

Often, yes. Pearland is mostly in Brazoria County, which is in the TWIA designated catastrophe area, so a roof replacement generally must be inspected and certified to the windstorm code to keep TWIA eligibility. The Texas Department of Insurance issues the WPI-8 certificate. Stone Castle Roofing installs to that code and coordinates the inspection.

In some cases a second layer is allowed, but Stone Castle Roofing generally recommends a full tear-off. Removing the old roof lets us inspect and replace rotted decking, install new underlayment and flashing, and avoid trapping heat and moisture. A tear-off also adds no extra weight to your framing and gives the new roof its best chance to last.

The cost of a new roof in Houston depends on roof size in squares, pitch, material, the number of layers to remove, decking repairs and any windstorm certification requirements. Shingles cost less upfront than metal, tile or slate. Stone Castle Roofing gives you a free inspection and a written proposal priced for your specific roof.
