New Roof Installation in Pecan Grove, TX

A new roof is a big decision, and it helps to know the sequence before the first shingle comes off. Here is how a typical Pecan Grove project unfolds:

• Inspection and measurements: we assess the shingles, decking, ventilation, flashing and gutters, and measure every slope
• Estimate review: you receive a written scope and we explain each line, including any decking or ventilation work
• Material and color selection: you choose your shingle color, and we provide product details if your HOA requires review
• Scheduling: we set a date around the weather forecast and confirm delivery logistics for your driveway
• Installation: tear-off, deck repairs, underlayment, flashing, shingles and ridge vents
• Clean-up and walkthrough: magnetic nail sweeps, debris removal and a final review with you

No two roofs are priced exactly alike, which is why we do not quote over the phone. The main factors are the size of the roof, its pitch, the number of valleys, hips and dormers, and the number of penetrations like chimneys, skylights and vents. Older homes may also need decking replaced where moisture has softened the wood, or added ventilation to bring the attic up to a healthier airflow. We note each of these items on your estimate so there are no surprises once the old roof is off.

We install Owens Corning TruDefinition Duration shingles on most of our residential roofs. They are laminated architectural shingles with a dimensional look and a reinforced nailing zone that helps them hold tight in strong winds. With a wide color selection, they suit the traditional brick homes that line many Pecan Grove streets as well as updated exteriors with lighter siding. Our shingle options page has more on choosing a style and color.

The tree canopy is one of Pecan Grove's best features, but it does put extra demands on a roof. Leaves and pecans pile up in valleys and gutters, branches scrape shingles in the wind and shaded slopes stay damp longer after rain. During installation we pay close attention to valleys and the areas behind chimneys, using leak barrier where debris and water tend to collect. We also recommend trimming any limbs that overhang the roof before the project starts, which protects the new shingles and gives our crew safer access.

Clear gutters are just as important. If yours overflow or pull away from the fascia, ask about our gutter and downspout work so the new roof drains the way it should.

A roof replacement is noisy, but it does not have to be chaotic. We protect landscaping and flower beds where we can, keep materials organized in the driveway, and never leave the roof open to the weather overnight. When the job is done, we clean up thoroughly so your yard looks the way it did before we arrived.

Many Pecan Grove homes were built when attic ventilation standards were less demanding, and later additions or remodels sometimes blocked soffit vents with insulation. The result is an attic that traps summer heat and humidity. That heat ages shingles from underneath, and moisture can condense on the decking and nails, leading to rust stains and soft wood.

Every new roof we install includes a ventilation check. Where airflow is lacking, we can add or clear soffit intake, install a continuous ridge vent and remove mismatched vent types that work against each other. A well-ventilated attic helps the new roof last and can make upstairs rooms noticeably more comfortable during August heat.
