Roof Repairs in Pattison, TX

After a major hail or wind event, rural communities often see out-of-area crews knocking on doors. Some are legitimate; some are gone by the time a problem shows up. Before you sign anything, it is reasonable to ask:

• Are you licensed and insured, and can you show proof?
• Will you show me photos of the damage you found, not just tell me about it?
• Is the estimate written, with each repair item listed?
• Who do I call if something goes wrong after the job is finished?
• Do you have a local phone number and email I can reach?

You can reach Tekton Exteriors at 832-691-1917 or info@tektonexteriors.com, and we are happy to answer every one of those questions.

Rural homes tend to carry a mix of roof types and ages, sometimes on the same property. The work we do most often includes:

• Replacing shingles blown off or creased by strong winds crossing open land
• Fixing leaks around chimneys, plumbing vents and roof-to-wall joints where flashing has failed
• Replacing decking softened by long-term, slow leaks that went unnoticed in an unused attic
• Repairing fascia and soffit damaged by overflowing gutters or nesting animals
• Patching punctures from falling limbs off large pecans and oaks

Our main roof repair services page has more detail on each type of repair.

Spring

Spring is hail and storm season in Waller County. After each strong storm, walk the property and look for shingle pieces in the yard, dents on gutters and vents, and new stains on ceilings.

Summer

Intense sun and attic heat dry out shingles and sealants. Check the attic on a hot afternoon; if it feels like an oven, ventilation may need improvement. Before hurricane season starts in June, trim limbs hanging over the roof.

Fall and winter

Clear leaves from gutters and valleys so winter rains can drain. Look for any rodent or wildlife entry points around the eaves, since a small gap can turn into a bigger repair.

We start with a full inspection of the roof surface and the attic, because the source of a leak is often some distance from where it shows up inside. You get photos and a written estimate. Once you approve the work, we remove damaged materials, repair or replace the decking and underlayment beneath them, and install new shingles and flashing matched as closely as possible to what you have. Before we leave, we clean up debris and nails, which matters on properties where kids, pets or livestock roam the yard.

If your roof has widespread wear, repeated leaks or heavy storm damage, a new roof may be the better use of your money. We install Owens Corning TruDefinition Duration shingles and can walk you through the roof replacement process. When storm damage is involved, our insurance claim assistance helps you document the damage and work with your adjuster.

Rural homes often grow over time. A covered porch gets added, a garage is attached or a workshop goes up out back. Each of those additions creates a new place where two roof surfaces meet, and those joints are some of the most common leak points we find. Low-slope porch roofs are especially prone to trouble because water drains slowly and debris collects.

When you call us about a leak, let us know about every structure on the property that has a roof. We can inspect the transitions between the main house and its additions, check the flashing where a porch ties into a wall, and look over detached buildings while we are there. Taking care of everything in one visit is easier on your schedule.
