Roofing Replacements, Inspections & Repairs

Your home is likely your most expensive asset, and your roofing system is the most essential feature for protecting it. The weather in the Southern Plains can change on a dime, quickly going from one extreme to another. A spring afternoon can turn into a hailstorm, with golf ball-sized hail pounding roofs. In the summer, heavy thunderstorms, lightning, and tornadoes are common occurrences. Even on a warm, sunny winter day, it can suddenly turn extremely cold and icy, with sub-zero temperatures. Despite these conditions, many homeowners in Texas don’t regularly inspect their roofs, which often leads to more frequent repairs and premature replacements.

Masters Services is committed to helping homeowners across North Texas prolong the lifespan of their roofing systems with expert inspections, repairs, and replacements.

Most Common Reasons for Roof Repairs in Texas

Living in Texas, which is considered “Tornado Alley,” can add significant stress to your roofing system due to the frequent, unpredictable weather patterns common in our humid, subtropical climate. Some of the most common issues we repair include:

1. Hail Impact: Large hail can burst shingles, knocking off protective granules and leaving the asphalt mat exposed to water and UV damage.
2. Wind Damage: High winds from thunderstorms and tornadoes can shift shingles, leaving the roof deck vulnerable to leaks, mold, and wood rot.
3. Thermal Shock: The rapid expansion and contraction of roofing materials during Texas "Blue Norther" cold fronts can cause shingles to crack or warp.
4. UV Exposure: Intense Southern sun "bakes" the oils out of asphalt shingles, making them brittle, eventually requiring replacement.

Why Roofing Inspections are Essential

Regular professional roof inspections are key to prolonging the lifespan of your roofing system. It can save you thousands of dollars on repairs and replacements. Not to mention the potential water damage to your home and furnishings from a roof leak. Identifying minor cracks, loose tiles, or shingles before they become major leaks during an inspection helps protect your home's structural integrity, insulation, and electrical systems. Plus, documented inspections are vital for insurance claims; having a professional record of your roof’s condition before a storm shows insurance carriers you are taking the necessary steps to mitigate future damage.

How often do I need a roof inspection?

We recommend a professional inspection from a qualified roofer twice a year—once in the spring and again in the fall. However, in Texas, we also recommend an inspection immediately following any severe weather event, such as hail or winds exceeding 50 mph.

Quality Roof Replacements

Sometimes, due to the extent of damage or the age of your roof, a roof replacement is the most cost-effective option. Masters Services provides a comprehensive replacement process that includes removing old materials, installing high-quality water barriers, and installing high-quality roofing shingles/tiles in your choice of style and colors. With Masters Services, you can expect a seamless roof replacement experience, careful attention to detail, quality craftsmanship, and a strong commitment to customer satisfaction.

Architectural Asphalt Shingles

Architectural asphalt shingles are the most popular roofing material in Texas for their cost-effectiveness and wind resistance. They can withstand winds up to 130 mph. Asphalt shingles have multiple layers, providing not only a textured wood-like appearance but also enhanced durability. These shingles typically have a lifespan of 20 to 30 years and are available in several colors, allowing homeowners to enhance their home’s curb appeal.

Metal Roofing Systems

Metal roofing is increasingly popular for its strength and fire resistance properties, especially in wooded neighborhoods or other areas where wildfires are a concern. They are also naturally water- and pest-resistant. They are also available in a variety of styles, colors, and finishes, so homeowners can find an option that complements their architectural style.
