Tom Barrett has been running Roofing crews across West Texas long enough to know what Lubbock’s weather does to a shingle and a deck. The wind alone is a full-time adversary. We plan around it.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Lubbock’s Preferred Roofing Company
Barrett & Sons Construction has been owner-operated since 1998. Tom Barrett’s name, address, and license number are published and verifiable. Before you sign anything, look us up. Then ask any roofer quoting you whether they’ll do the same. If they hesitate, that’s your answer.
Our Roofing team works the neighborhoods most national outfits won’t touch without dispatching a stranger: Tech Terrace, the east side, and the older red-brick stretches where houses from the 1950s and 1960s still stand on their original framing. We’re not a franchise. Tom’s sons run the crews. The person who shakes your hand at the estimate is often the person checking the flashing on day one.
And here’s the part that matters most after the job: every contract carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If something isn’t right, one call brings Tom back. No ticket-punching, no subcontracted warranty department in another state.
Our Roofing Services in Lubbock
Roof Repair
Most Lubbock roof repair calls start as a leak or a missing shingle after a spring hailstorm. In neighborhoods like Tech Terrace, where homes often carry their original decking from the 1950s, we inspect the deck before quoting, because a soft spot under the felt changes everything. Repair work in Lubbock runs about $400-$1,800 depending on the number of affected squares and whether the underlayment is intact. We show you what we found with photos. Then we fix it. No upselling, no mystery line items.
Roof Replacement & Installation
When the entire roof is past saving, a full replacement in Lubbock runs $8,000-$20,000 for the typical ranch home. That range covers tear-off, deck repair where needed, underlayment, and a quality architectural shingle. Our crews watch the wind forecast closely on replacement days. Lubbock gusts hit 40-60 mph often enough that we stage materials in the yard where they can’t sail into a neighbor’s window, and we stop work when safety says stop. That’s not a delay tactic. That’s how you avoid a hospital bill.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofing in Lubbock runs $15,000-$40,000 installed, and for good reason. A standing seam metal roof laughs at the 12-14 mph average winds and shrugs off the hail that forces shingle replacements every few years. On ranch-style homes around 79405 and 79406, it’s one of the smartest long-term choices you can make on the Llano Estacado. We install standing seam and exposed-fastener systems, and we factory-order coil and panels to match your existing trim.
Tile Roofing
Tile roof repair in Lubbock runs $600-$2,500 for most jobs, usually cracked or slipped barrel tile after a heavy wind or hail event. The challenge with tile isn’t the tile itself. It’s the underlayment beneath it, which ages faster in our dry climate than most homeowners expect. We pull the damaged tile, inspect what’s under it, and tell you honestly whether the tile needs one replacement or the whole slope needs re-laid.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lubbock
We carry and install brands you can look up, not mystery products from the back of a van. On Lubbock roofs, that means GAF and CertainTeed shingles by default, with standing seam panels ordered to spec. We keep common flashing and accessory stock available for the market’s most popular products, so a routine repair in 79407 doesn’t wait a week on a parts truck. If you’re also considering hardscape work around the house, the same crew standards cover Belgard and Fence Installation in Lubbock when you’re ready. For windows after a hail claim, we handle Windows & Doors in Lubbock with the same permit-first approach.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Lubbock Homes
- Wind-lifted shingles on east- and south-facing slopes. Lubbock’s prevailing wind doesn’t let up for weeks at a stretch. We regularly see shingles that are still technically “on” the roof but have lost their seal strip, which means the next 50 mph gust peels them like a sardine tin.
- Hail bruising that doesn’t show until it granulates. West Texas hail alley sends a big storm through almost every year. The damage often isn’t visible from the ground. After a hail event, we inspect for bruised shingle mats. If the mat is compromised, insurance companies won’t usually cover a full replacement later, when the leak finally shows. The window to file matters.
- Cracked flashing around chimneys and bathroom vents. Older homes in Tech Terrace and across the south side often carry metal flashing with 40 years of expansion and contraction behind it. Lubbock’s freeze-thaw days, rare as they are, open hairline cracks that leak during the next hard rain.
- Deck rot at the eaves on 1960s ranch homes. Fifty-year-old plywood near the drip edge takes the brunt of our drought-and-downpour cycles. Dry wood holds, but once the seams open, a season of rain finds every weak point. We repair the deck before any shingle goes over it.
Pricing for Roofing in Lubbock, TX
Here’s the honest math on Lubbock roofing. A roof repair runs $400-$1,800. A full roof replacement on a typical ranch runs $8,000-$20,000. Metal roof installation starts around $15,000 and can reach $40,000 for a complex roof with standing seam and custom trim. Tile roof repair runs $600-$2,500 for most jobs.
What pushes cost? Deck condition, roof pitch, the number of plumbing penetrations and skylights, and whether old layers need to come off. Every one of those shows up as a line item on your written estimate. Nothing appears later that wasn’t on paper first. That’s the rule Tom started with in 1998, the same rule his sons enforce today. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free inspection. We’ll give you the price that holds, not the price that changes when the crew shows up.

FAQs - Roofing in Lubbock
For active leaks, we typically get someone to your home within 24-48 hours, sooner when storm calls allow it. We inspect first, then put a temporary protective covering over the affected area if a full repair can’t happen immediately. The temporary stop works, and it’s billed as a separate, written line item, so you always know what you’re paying. Call (877) 610-1318 and ask about No Trip Charge Inside the County.
We cover 79404, 79405, 79406, and 79407, including Tech Terrace, the east side, and the southwest corridors. If you’re on a county road just outside city limits, the same No Trip Charge applies inside the county. We don’t limit our service area to the newest subdivisions or the easiest drives.
Yes. After a major hail or wind event, we triage calls by severity. Active water intrusion comes first. We’ll tarp, we’ll cover, we’ll stop the leak the same day when conditions allow, then come back for the full repair once the weather settles and materials are available. The temporary work is documented, photographed, and put in writing so your insurance claim has everything it needs. Call (877) 610-1318 if you’re watching water come through the ceiling right now.
You’ll pay slightly more in Lubbock than in Levelland or Slaton for most jobs, mostly because Lubbock’s larger homes and older housing stock drive more deck repair and more complex roof geometry. Canyon and Amarillo run comparable. For a standard ranch replacement, you’re still looking at $8,000-$20,000 here, and we’ll show you exactly why within the written estimate. The number won’t wander after the contract is signed. Schedule your free estimate at (877) 610-1318.
Every roof we install carries the manufacturer’s warranty on materials plus our own 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If something wasn’t done right, one call brings Tom back to make it right. That’s not a vague promise. It’s a clause on every contract, and Tom’s been standing behind it since 1998. Ask for a copy before you sign anything. We’re happy to show you the language.
