Roof Replacement in Lakeway, Texas

What replacement involves

When a roof is past its service life, patching it usually just moves the problem six months down the road and costs more in the end. A replacement resets the clock on the entire assembly, and it is also the moment to fix the details that caused the leaks in the first place — bad flashing, crushed pipe boots, blocked soffit vents, an underlayment that gave up years before the shingles did.

Our crews handle the full scope: strip the old roof, inspect and replace damaged sheathing, install synthetic underlayment with ice-and-water protection at the eaves and valleys, and finish with the material you choose. You get photographs of the deck before it is covered, a written scope before work starts and a magnetic sweep of the yard before we leave.

What roof replacement actually is

A roof replacement means removing the existing roofing down to the deck (a full tear-off) rather than layering new shingles over the old. Done properly, it includes replacing any failed sheathing, rebuilding the flashing details at walls, chimneys and valleys, and re-establishing the ventilation path from the eaves to the ridge.

Layovers — new shingles installed over old — are cheaper and occasionally legitimate where a single layer exists and the deck is sound. But they add weight, hide deck rot, void some warranties and usually shorten the life of the new roof. Any contractor proposing one should be able to explain exactly why it is safe on your roof.

Problems this solves

• Shingles that are curling, cracking or losing granules in handfuls — granules are the UV protection, and once they are gone the asphalt is exposed
• Multiple leaks or leaks that return to the same place after every repair
• Missing shingle tabs after storm events, and soft spots in the deck where water has been sitting
• A roof that is 20 years or older and has been patched more than twice
• Daylight or damp insulation visible from inside the attic

Benefits

• A documented, code-compliant roof system rather than a patch that hides the problem
• Manufacturer material warranty plus our own workmanship coverage
• Deck repair handled while the roof is open — before it becomes a rot problem inside the house
• Better ventilation and insulation detailing, which lowers cooling costs in summer and reduces ice dams in winter
• A property that appraises, sells and insures without a roofing objection

When homeowners call us for this

• The roof has reached or passed the expected life for its material — roughly 20 to 25 years for 3-tab shingles, 25 to 30 for architectural asphalt, longer for metal and tile
• Storm damage is widespread across more than one slope or elevation
• Repeated repairs in the same area keep failing
• The home inspection or insurance underwriter has flagged the roof
• You are selling, and a buyer is asking for the roof to be resolved before closing

What is included

• Full tear-off and disposal of the existing roofing layers
• Deck inspection and replacement of damaged or delaminated sheathing
• Synthetic underlayment and ice-and-water protection at eaves, valleys and penetrations
• New drip edge, valley metal, pipe boots and step or counter-flashing as the roof requires
• Ridge, hip and starter detailing to the manufacturer’s high-wind pattern
• Ventilation correction where intake or exhaust is blocked or missing
• Daily cleanup, dumpster management and a magnetic nail sweep at completion
