AfterFast, Reliable Roofing Across Addison
Roof Replacement in Addison runs $8,000-$20,000 on most homes and small commercial buildings, while a focused Roof Repair typically lands between $400 and $1,800. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and we’ve worked on enough Addison roofs to know that what looks like a simple shingle failure on Belt Line Road often isn’t. Tom Barrett and his sons run our Roofing crews themselves, and we answer our own phone. Call (877) 610-1318 when you want a real roofer on the line, not a call center.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Addison’s Preferred Roofing Company
Addison is a 4.4-square-mile town completely surrounded by Dallas. That means no greenfield lots, no new subdivisions, and no easy jobs. Every roof we touch here sits on an existing building, usually with tenants underneath it, a Town of Addison permit requirement attached, and a parking lot we can’t block. We know that before we show up.
Our crews have replaced roofs along Belt Line Road, throughout the Addison Circle multifamily blocks, and on the aging commercial strips near the Addison Airport. Addison customers call us because Tom puts his name on the contract and his crew on the roof. When a property manager on Quorum Drive needs a leak fixed before a restaurant opens for lunch service, we plan the job around those hours. That’s not a special service. That’s just what Roofing in Addison actually requires here.
Every job gets a written change order before any scope changes. Every eligible roof gets permits pulled with the Town of Addison and inspections signed. And every completed job carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not right, Tom comes back. One call.
Our Roofing Services in Addison
Roof Repair
Most Addison roof repairs start as a leak and turn into something else once we open the decking. On older multifamily buildings near Belt Line Road, we regularly find rotted plywood at roof-to-wall transitions where waterproofing failed years ago. A $400-$1,800 repair handles most flashing, shingle, and penetration issues. But when we find decking damage from Addison’s clay soil movement, we document it, write the change order, and get your approval before we cut anything wider.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Roof Replacement in Addison runs $8,000-$20,000 for most buildings we see. The price moves based on decking condition, the number of penetrations (commercial kitchens on Belt Line Road have a lot of them), and whether the Town of Addison requires a full tear-off versus an overlay. We install GAF and CertainTeed systems, pull permits, and never start demolition before the written scope is in your hand.
Metal Roofing
Standing seam metal roofs make sense for Addison’s long-term building owners, especially on commercial structures where grease-laden air from restaurant exhaust shortens the life of standard shingle systems. Metal Roof Installation here runs $15,000-$40,000. We quote it honestly because we know the decking underneath often needs remediation first. A metal roof over a compromised deck is a warranty problem waiting to happen. We won’t do that to you.
Tile Roofing
Addison has a handful of barrel tile roofs, mostly on older custom buildings around the western edge of town near Inwood Road. Tile Roof Repair runs $600-$2,500. The challenge in Addison isn’t the tile itself; it’s the decking movement underneath from shrink-swell clay. We inspect the underlayment every time. Broken tiles are easy to spot; broken decking isn’t.

Trusted Brands We Service in Addison
We’re certified installers for GAF roofing systems, and we stock common GAF components locally so Addison repairs don’t wait on a distributor out of Fort Worth. For commercial kitchen work along Belt Line Road, we routinely spec GAF TPO membranes because they hold up better against grease-laden exhaust than standard asphalt systems. When we propose a brand, we can tell you why it’s the right one for your building, not just what we happen to have on the truck.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Addison Homes
- Clay soil movement cracking decking: Addison sits on Blackland Prairie clay that shrinks during 100°F summer stretches and swells after rain. That movement transfers into roof framing and decking. Leaks that look like shingle failures are often cracks in the substrate underneath.
- Grease-laden air eating roofing materials: Commercial buildings along Belt Line Road near restaurant clusters face accelerated membrane breakdown from kitchen exhaust. If the roof wasn’t designed for that exposure, it fails years early. We see it constantly.
- Failed waterproofing at roof-to-wall transitions: Aging multifamily structures in Addison Circle and the apartment corridors near Montfort Drive develop hidden water intrusion where walls meet roof lines. The damage hides behind siding and drywall until a renovation opens it up. By then, decking replacement is usually unavoidable.
- Unauthorized prior buildout hidden above dropped ceilings: Addison’s restaurant turnover is fast. Each new tenant often inherits modifications the previous tenant never permitted. When we replace a roof, we find compromised decking, abandoned penetrations, and occasional structural shortcuts that a generic roofing crew would simply cover over. We don’t cover; we document and correct with a written change order.

FAQs - Roofing in Addison
Yes. The Town of Addison requires permits for roof replacements, including overlays, on commercial buildings along Belt Line Road. Overlaying without a permit creates a liability chain that lands on the building owner when the next tenant buildout exposes unpermitted work. We pull permits on every eligible job and get inspections signed. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk you through the Town’s current requirements for your specific building.
Addison’s Blackland Prairie clay shrinks and swells with seasonal moisture changes, and that movement transfers through the walls into roof framing. During a replacement, we inspect decking and rafters for cracks, gaps, and shifted load paths before we lay any new roofing material. If we find movement damage, we price the repair as a written change order. Fixing it before the new roof goes on prevents callbacks a season later. Call (877) 610-1318 for an inspection and honest take on what your decking actually needs.
Expect grease-laden air damage around exhaust penetrations, unauthorized prior buildout above dropped ceilings, and decking compromise from years of unrepaired leaks. On Belt Line Road, our crew replaced a restaurant roof where hidden grease-trap non-conformances and unauthorized prior buildout above a dropped ceiling had compromised the original roof decking. We documented everything in writing, pulled the required Town of Addison permits, and completed the job without shutting down dinner service. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll inspect before quoting, so the number you see is the number you pay.
Yes, metal roof installation on an occupied Addison Circle multifamily building is workable, but it requires phased scheduling and noise management. Standing seam systems are loud to install, so we sequence the work around tenant routines and coordinate with property management on access. The roof itself lasts 40+ years, which makes it a strong long-term play for Addison’s older apartment stock. Expect $15,000-$40,000 depending on decking condition and roof size. Call (877) 610-1318 for a walkthrough and written scope.
We start with temporary protection, usually tarping or a membrane patch, to stop active water intrusion. That’s allowed under emergency provisions while permits are processed. Then we file the permit package, document the damage, and work the repair as soon as the Town of Addison signs off. Our crew knows the Town’s permit cycle well enough to set realistic expectations. Call (877) 610-1318 the moment you see storm damage, and we’ll get a tarp on it same day if the site is safe to access.
