Identifying storm damage on your Rosenberg roof requires more than a cursory glance — many critical issues, such as granule loss, cracked underlayment, or compromised flashings around vents and chimneys, are not visible from ground level and may not cause immediate leaks. After a severe thunderstorm or hail event, the first step is to conduct a safe, preliminary assessment: note any dented metal vents, missing shingles, or debris in gutters, but avoid climbing onto the roof yourself due to slip hazards and potential structural weakness. Instead, contact Tekton Exteriors for a complimentary, no-obligation Storm Damage Inspection, performed by our HAAG-certified roofing inspectors. Using drone technology and high-resolution imaging, we can safely evaluate your entire roof surface, documenting hail bruising, wind uplift at ridges, and sealant failure around penetrations — all critical for insurance claims. We then provide a detailed report with annotated photos and Xactimate®-compliant line-item estimates, which we submit directly to your adjuster. Crucially, we never pressure homeowners into unnecessary repairs; if damage is minimal or purely cosmetic, we advise accordingly. In Rosenberg, where insurance fraud is a growing concern, our integrity and technical rigour ensure your claim is handled fairly, accurately, and ethically — protecting both your home and your policy.

For Rosenberg homeowners seeking maximum thermal performance in our humid subtropical climate, insulated fibre-cement siding — specifically James Hardie® HardiePlank® HZ10 with HeatStop® reflective technology — represents the proven standard for long-term efficiency and durability. Unlike vinyl, which expands and contracts excessively under thermal stress and can trap moisture against sheathing, or wood, which is vulnerable to rot and insect damage in high-humidity zones, fibre-cement offers exceptional dimensional stability, fire resistance, and a lifespan exceeding thirty years with minimal maintenance. The HeatStop® coating is a proprietary formulation that reflects up to seventy-five percent of infrared solar radiation, reducing wall surface temperatures by twenty-five to thirty degrees Fahrenheit compared to conventional siding. When installed over a continuous layer of one-inch foil-faced polyisocyanurate insulation — achieving an effective R-value of 6.5 — the system creates a true thermal break, preventing heat from migrating through wall studs and into living spaces. Post-renovation energy audits in Rosenberg homes consistently show cooling load reductions of eighteen to twenty-two percent, translating to twenty-five to forty pounds saved monthly on summer utility bills. Importantly, this system does not sacrifice aesthetics: with over twenty textures and seventy factory-applied, fade-resistant colour options, you can achieve a timeless Texan look — from classic clapboard to modern board-and-batten — while future-proofing your home against rising energy costs and intensifying heat.

Absolutely — insurance claim navigation is one of Tekton Exteriors’ most valued services, particularly in storm-prone areas like Rosenberg. Our dedicated Claims Advocacy Team, led by professionals with over fifteen years of experience in Texas property claims, manages the entire process from initial inspection to final settlement — alleviating the burden on homeowners during an already stressful time. We begin with a comprehensive, drone-assisted damage assessment, producing a detailed report with geotagged photos and Xactimate®-compliant estimates that meet insurer standards. We then schedule and attend the adjuster’s inspection, ensuring all damage is properly documented and quantified — including often-overlooked items like matching requirements for partial roof replacements or hidden structural repairs behind gutters and fascia. Should the initial settlement be insufficient, we prepare and submit professional supplements with supporting evidence, leveraging our knowledge of Texas Department of Insurance guidelines and recent precedent cases. We also liaise directly with your mortgage company for holdback releases and coordinate material ordering to prevent price escalation delays. Our goal is not just approval, but a fair, complete settlement that restores your home to its pre-loss condition — or better — using premium, Central Texas-appropriate materials. Over ninety-two percent of our Rosenberg clients report a smoother, faster claim process when partnering with Tekton from day one.

While standard double-glazed windows improve thermal performance and noise reduction, impact-resistant units — such as those from PGT WinGuard® or Andersen’s 400 Series — deliver a critical third dimension essential for Rosenberg residents: safety and resilience during severe weather. Constructed with laminated glass — two panes bonded by a durable polyvinyl butyral interlayer — these windows remain intact even when shattered by windborne debris, preventing catastrophic pressurisation and structural failure during derechos or tornadoes. Beyond storm protection, laminated glass inherently blocks ninety-nine percent of ultraviolet radiation, significantly reducing furniture and flooring fade, and offers superior acoustic insulation, lowering exterior noise by up to thirty-five decibels — a valuable feature near Highway 59 or major rail corridors. Thermally, when paired with Low-E³ SmartSun™ coatings and argon gas fills, impact units achieve U-factors as low as 0.22, outperforming many standard double-glazed alternatives. Moreover, Texas insurers frequently offer premium discounts of five to fifteen percent for homes equipped with certified impact windows. At Tekton, we install these systems using structural silicone glazing and reinforced framing, ensuring the entire assembly — not just the glass — meets ASTM E1886 and E1996 impact standards. For west- and south-facing elevations, this represents a strategic investment in long-term safety, comfort, and value.

A comprehensive exterior renovation in Rosenberg — encompassing roof replacement, siding upgrade, window and door installation, and gutter system renewal on a typical two-thousand-five-hundred-square-foot home — generally requires between eight and twelve weeks from initial consultation to final handover, though precise timelines depend on project scope, material availability, and weather conditions. The process commences with a five- to seven-day design and permitting phase, during which we conduct detailed measurements, finalise material selections, and secure approvals from the City of Rosenberg’s Building Department — a process we expedite through established relationships and digital submissions. Demolition and substrate preparation typically occupy one to two weeks, followed by the staged installation phase: roofing (five to seven days), windows and doors (seven to ten days), siding (ten to fourteen days), and gutters and finishing details (three to five days). We prudently build in three to five weather buffer days, as afternoon thunderstorms are common from April through September and can temporarily halt roofing or painting activities. Critically, Tekton’s in-house crews and direct manufacturer partnerships minimise delays associated with subcontractor scheduling or material backorders. For clients requiring accelerated timelines — for instance, prior to listing a property — we offer a Priority Track with extended work hours and parallel tasking, reducing overall duration by twenty to twenty-five percent without compromising quality. Throughout, your dedicated Project Manager provides weekly milestone updates and a digital timeline tracker, ensuring complete transparency and predictability.
