Roofing in Houston - Written Price, Workmanship Warranty

Fast, Reliable Roofing Across Houston

Roof replacement in Houston typically runs $8,000-$20,000 for a standard asphalt shingle re-roof, while targeted roof repair sits between $400 and $1,800 depending on the damage. Most Houston homeowners call us after a storm blows shingles off or a slow leak finally stains the ceiling, and we’re usually on-site within a day or two for an assessment. Houston’s combination of 50-plus inches of annual rainfall, hurricane-season wind gusts, and relentless summer heat ages roofs faster than almost anywhere else in Texas.

Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Houston’s Preferred Roofing Company

We’re not a franchise that sends strangers from three counties over. Tom Barrett’s name is on the truck, and his sons run the crews you’ll see on your roof. That matters when you’re spending five figures on a new roof over your head. Serving Houston, TX, we hear the same story from homeowners again and again: a big outfit quoted one number over the phone, then handed them a change order with four extra line items after the tear-off started. We handle it differently. Every scope, every allowance, and every price change arrives as a written change order before work proceeds. The permit inspector works for you, not for me, which is exactly why we pull permits and get inspections signed on every eligible Houston job. Ask anyone on your block or look up the license number yourself. If you want a free second opinion on any written estimate, we’ll do that too.

Our Roofing Services in Houston

Roof Repair

Roof repair and Driveway & Pavers - Houston work in the inner loop and surrounding neighborhoods usually costs $400-$1,800, and we see the same culprits year after year. Wind-driven rain works under loose shingles along the eaves in the Heights and Montrose bungalows, while valley flashing corrodes in Galena Park’s older stock. We match existing shingle color and profile where possible, and we don’t push a full replacement when a targeted patch will hold. A repair estimate is free, and the written price you get is the written price you’ll pay.

Roof Replacement & Installation

A full roof replacement in Houston lands between $8,000 and $20,000 for most asphalt shingle homes, with metal and tile running higher. The decision usually comes down to decking condition, slope complexity, and how many layers of old shingles need to come off. Houston’s expansive Beaumont Clay soils hold moisture and humidity against the structure, which accelerates decking rot around vents and chimneys. We use GAF shingles on most full replacements because they carry a manufacturer rating our Houston customers can verify themselves, not a mystery brand off the back of a van, and we also offer Andersen service in Houston.

Metal Roofing

Metal roof installation in Houston runs $15,000-$40,000 depending on panel profile and seam type. Standing seam metal handles Houston’s summer heat reflection better than asphalt, and it holds up to hurricane-season wind shear when the flashing detail is done right. We see standing seam specified most often on new construction in Bellaire and West University Place, where homeowners want a roof they won’t think about for decades. If you’re comparing metal to asphalt, we’ll walk you through the cost difference in writing before you commit.

Tile Roofing

Tile roof repair in Houston typically runs $600-$2,500, since most tile work is resealing valleys, replacing cracked barrel tiles, and fixing the underlayment that Houston’s humidity breaks down over time. We also install barrel tile roofing for Mediterranean-style homes along the corridor from West University Place down toward the Medical Center, where the architectural style demands it. Tile is heavier than shingle, so the decking and framing need evaluation first. That evaluation is part of our free estimate.

Trusted Brands We Service in Houston

We install and service GAF shingle systems because the warranty documentation is easy for Houston homeowners to verify independent of any contractor’s word. When you’re replacing a roof in flood-mapped neighborhoods near Buffalo Bayou or along the 610 Loop, you want a manufacturer that stands behind its product in writing. We keep common GAF accessory parts stocked locally for faster turnaround on repair calls, and we’ll never substitute a no-name flashing kit just to save a few dollars on the back end. If you’re also looking at Windows & Doors in Houston, we carry Andersen and Marvin lines for homes that need the whole envelope upgraded at once.

Common Roofing Problems We See in Houston Homes

• Wind-lifted shingles after spring squalls and hurricane season: Houston’s flat coastal terrain does nothing to slow wind gusts that peel shingles at the edges and corners. Once the nail strip is exposed, the next rain gets underneath and damages the decking.
• Slow valley leaks from Houston’s heavy rainfall: Fifty-plus inches of rain a year means valley flashing failures show themselves quickly. In the 1920s-1940s bungalows around the Heights and Montrose, original flashing has rarely been replaced before it rusts through.
• Decking rot around vents, chimneys, and skylights: Houston’s humidity plus expansive soil moisture means particle board and plywood decking rot faster around roof penetrations. By the time a stain shows on the ceiling, the decking beneath has often been wet for months.
• Storm damage after Gulf-driven weather events: Post-Harvey roof assessments became a regular part of our Houston work, and the same pattern repeats after every major storm: granule loss, impact dents, and hidden water intrusion that doesn’t show for weeks. If water got in during the last storm, the sooner we inspect it, the less it costs to fix.
