For many homeowners, yes. Metal roofing costs more upfront than shingles but can last much longer and handle Texas heat and storms well. It depends on how long you plan to stay and your priorities.

Installation time varies with roof size, geometry, tear-off, panel system, weather and site conditions; a project-specific timeline should be given after scope is established.

Sometimes, depending on deck condition, local code, and existing layers. An inspection comes first, and the recommendation — overlay or full tear-off — follows from what it finds.

Replacement usually makes sense when damage is widespread, corrosion covers large areas, or the roof has reached the end of its service life. Isolated leaks, loose fasteners, and worn sealant are normally repairs. An inspection comes first, and which applies to your roof is explained.

It depends on the condition of the deck, local code, and how many layers are already in place. Some roofs can take an overlay; others need a full tear-off so the deck can be checked and repaired. An inspection decides it rather than a rule of thumb.

Yes. Many issues — leaks around flashing, loose fasteners, worn sealant, and isolated panel damage — can be repaired. An inspection comes first, and the recommendation is repair or, if damage is widespread, replacement.

Move anything valuable clear of the drip if you can do that safely, note where the water appears and when, and stay off the roof. Metal-roof leaks can originate at flashings, penetrations, seams, fasteners or other details rather than at the panels, so describing what you have seen is the useful first step.

Standing seam uses vertical panels with raised, interlocking seams and hidden fasteners, so there are no exposed screws across the field of the roof. It offers clean lines and fewer maintenance points.

Metal generally lasts longer and handles storms well, while shingles cost less upfront. The right choice depends on budget, how long you plan to stay, and your priorities.

Yes. We help warehouses, retail, and light-commercial buildings with installation, repair, and inspection planning, checking seams, penetrations, and drainage.

Seams, fasteners, flashing at penetrations, and drainage paths are the usual problem areas. Standing water and blocked drainage put steady stress on panels and joints, so they are worth checking before a problem reaches the interior.

Schedule an inspection after a storm, before buying or selling, or when you notice leaks, stains, or loose fasteners. It gives you a clear picture before problems grow.

An inspection covers panels, seams, fasteners, flashing, penetrations, and drainage, then explains the findings in plain terms. You get the findings first, before any repair or replacement work is discussed.

Hail can dent panels, damage coatings, and loosen fasteners, and heavy hail can affect flashing and seams. A storm damage inspection checks for both visible and hidden damage.

Schedule a post-storm roof check rather than climbing the roof yourself. An inspection covers panels, seams, flashing, and fasteners and explains your repair or replacement options.

A correctly installed metal roof can last for decades with routine inspection and minor upkeep, often longer than a typical shingle roof in the Texas climate.

Keep drainage clear, watch for loose fasteners or worn sealant, and schedule periodic inspections — especially after major storms — to catch small issues early.
