Fast, Reliable Roofing Across Cedar Hill
Roof replacement in Cedar Hill typically costs between $8,000 and $20,000, while targeted repairs run $400 to $1,800 depending on what’s failing. Most jobs are scheduled within a week of the estimate, and storm damage calls get prioritized because a small leak on the escarpment turns into decking rot fast. Barrett & Sons Construction has been answering the phone for Cedar Hill homeowners since 1998, and you’ll reach a live person when you call (877) 610-1318.
We work in the 75104 and 75106 ZIP codes every week, from the master-planned streets of Lake Ridge to the older lots along Belt Line Road. Our Roofing team knows what Cedar Hill wind does to a roofline, and we quote it honestly the first time.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Cedar Hill’s Preferred Roofing Company
Tom Barrett owns the company and his sons run the crews. That’s not a marketing line. When we put a roof on a house off FM 1382, the person who shook your hand at the estimate is the same person walking the ridge at final inspection. Homeowners in Cedar Hill have had enough of national outfits that quote one number on the phone and hand over a different bill at the door.
Our standing offers apply to every Cedar Hill job: $40 off any repair over $200, a free second opinion on any written estimate, and no trip charge inside the county. We also honor a permanent 10% Senior & Veteran discount. Every contract carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing: if it’s not done right, Tom comes back and makes it right, one call.
Permits get pulled and inspections get signed on every eligible roofing job in Cedar Hill. The permit inspector works for you, not for me, and that’s the way we like it. Look up our license number before you sign anything. Tom publishes his name, his address, and his license. Ask anyone on your street about us, or check the record yourself.
Our Roofing Services in Cedar Hill
Roof Repair
Roof repair in Cedar Hill typically runs $400 to $1,800. Most of what we fix are wind-lifted 3-tab shingles on 1990s and 2000s homes, torn flashing at chimney bases, and soffit rot from gutter overflows that back-pitched against brick veneer. We match existing shingle color and profile where HOA rules require it, and we document everything in writing before work starts.

Roof Replacement & Installation
A full roof replacement in Cedar Hill runs $8,000 to $20,000, with the final number driven by square footage, tear-off depth, decking condition, and whether the HOA requires impact-rated materials. We don’t layer new shingles over old ones on the escarpment. The wind uplift here exposes shortcuts within a year or two, and by then the original installer is long gone. We strip, inspect the decking, replace what’s failed, and install with 6-nail patterns and starter strips as standard.

Metal Roofing
Metal roof installation in Cedar Hill costs $15,000 to $40,000. Standing seam with concealed fasteners is the right call for homes on the higher western ridges where sustained wind loads chew through asphalt well before its nominal rating. We use GAF and CertainTeed materials on asphalt jobs and spec standing seam profiles that HOAs in Lake Ridge and High Pointe will actually approve, with the architectural committee sign-off in writing before material is ordered.

Tile Roofing
Tile roof repair in Cedar Hill ranges from $600 to $2,500. Barrel tile and flat concrete tile hold up well to hail but crack under foot traffic and thermal cycling. We replace broken tiles, repoint ridge caps, and reseal penetrations without disturbing the surrounding courses. If a leak has been running for a while, we check the decking underneath before quoting the repair, because water travels along the escarpment slope and shows up far from the entry point.

Trusted Brands We Service in Cedar Hill
We install GAF and CertainTeed asphalt systems, and we stand behind the standing seam metal profiles and Kynar 500 finishes that Cedar Hill HOAs expect. You’ll see Techo-Bloc and Cambridge Pavers on our hardscape jobs, and the same philosophy carries to roofing: name-brand materials you can look up, never mystery stock off a van. For Cedar Hill homeowners, that means the shingle on your roof has a spec sheet, a wind rating, and an impact class you can verify online before you sign anything.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Cedar Hill Homes
- Wind-lifted 3-tab shingles on 1990s-2000s homes. Builder-grade installs on the escarpment often skipped 6-nail patterns and starter strips, so corners tear and eaves lift within 12-15 years, well short of the 25-year nominal rating. The sustained wind load up here is measurably higher than in DeSoto or Duncanville a few miles east.
- Decking rot at the ridge and eaves from wind-driven rain. When hail breaks the shingle seal and wind pushes water sideways, moisture sits on the OSB and the ridge swells. By the time you see a stain on the ceiling, the decking underneath is usually compromised.
- Gutter and downspout failures along brick veneer. Shallow caliche on high western lots rejects water, so terminations back-pitch and overflow runs against the brick. We see soffit rot and fascia pull-away at the roofline more often than actual shingle failure on some streets.
- HOA-driven repair delays that turn minor damage major. If your HOA requires architectural committee approval before a repair and your roofer doesn’t file it, you’re the one holding the lien or removal order. We handle that paperwork for you, in writing, before material moves.

FAQs - Roofing in Cedar Hill
Yes. Many master-planned communities in Cedar Hill, including Lake Ridge and High Pointe, require Class 4 impact-rated shingles or metal profiles with specific colors and finishes approved by the architectural committee before a replacement starts. We pull the HOA’s published standards, submit the material spec in writing, and get approval documented before the first shingle arrives. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll check your subdivision’s requirements during the free estimate.
Homes on the escarpment need 6-nail patterns, proper starter strips, and often a reinforced underlayment at eaves and ridges to handle sustained wind loads that flat Dallas neighborhoods never see. A standard 4-nail install that passes in lower-lying areas will tear corners and lift eaves within a decade up here. We nail every Cedar Hill roof to the higher wind spec, regardless of what the original builder used. Call (877) 610-1318 for an exact scope on your roof.
In most cases yes, but the answer depends on what the original warranty says. Some 2000s builders included language restricting roof replacements to specific materials for the first 10 or 15 years. We pull your original warranty if you have it, review any structural limitations, and put our recommendation in writing before you commit. The metal roof itself won’t void a structural warranty unless the warranty explicitly prohibits it. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk through your specific warranty.
On the higher western portions of the city, crews excavating for footings, fence posts, or fascia repairs hit solid limestone and caliche within 18 to 36 inches. A simple fascia replacement that takes an hour in the clay flatlands of DeSoto can require a pneumatic hammer in Cedar Hill. We carry the right equipment on the truck from the start, because we know the escarpment. Call (877) 610-1318 for a quote that accounts for your lot’s actual soil.
Yes. When the Blackland Prairie clay under your slab shrinks during extended dry spells, the house shifts subtly, and roof-to-wall intersections flex. Flashing gaps open, caulk joints crack, and water finds its way through seams that looked tight a year earlier. We see leak calls in Cedar Hill during and after drought cycles with no hail or wind event to blame. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll trace the leak to its actual source, not just patch the stain.
If your roof is leaking, lifting, or just getting old, call Barrett & Sons Construction at (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate.
