Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Aransas Pass’s Preferred Roofing Company
Tom Barrett puts his name on every job. His sons run the crews. That matters in a city where Hurricane Harvey’s direct landfall in 2017 forced homeowners to rebuild under new FEMA flood maps and TWIA windstorm codes. We’ve worked on elevated pier homes along the ship channel, reopened bungalows off Wheeler Avenue in 78336, and new construction in 78335. The permit inspector knows our work. The homeowners who call us back know our number.
Aransas Pass homeowners tell us the same thing: the last contractor they hired didn’t answer the phone after the job. We answer 24/7. A live person, not a voicemail box. Every scope, allowance, and price change arrives as a written change order before work happens. Permits get pulled, inspections get signed, and every completed job is backed by our 90-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not right, Tom comes back and makes it right. One call.
Our Roofing team doesn’t dispatch strangers. The same faces show up at the hardware store on Saturday that showed up on your roof on Tuesday. Ask around. Look up the license number. Tom publishes his name, his address, and his license number because he wants you to verify him before you sign anything.
Our Roofing Services in Aransas Pass
Roof Repair
Roof repair in Aransas Pass runs $400-$1,800 for most jobs. We’re talking failed step flashing, corroded fasteners, missing shingles after a squall off the channel, or a leak that stained the ceiling after the last coastal storm. Salt-laden onshore wind eats exposed metal connectors here at a rate inland Texas builders wouldn’t believe. We use marine-grade and stainless hardware on every repair, not the galvanized stuff that fails in three years.
Roof Replacement & Installation
A full roof replacement in Aransas Pass runs $8,000-$20,000. That includes tear-off, decking inspection, underlayment upgrade, and TWIA-compliant installation. We wrote this page because homeowners on elevated pier homes get failed inspections when out-of-area crews skip hurricane ties or undersize the eave-to-wall connection. We don’t skip. The permit inspector works for you, not for me. That’s why I like him.
Metal Roofing
Metal roof installation in Aransas Pass runs $15,000-$40,000. For homes in AE or VE flood zones with elevated piers 8-10 feet off grade, standing seam is often the right answer. It handles the salt corrosion better than composition shingles, and TWIA inspectors know what to look for: stainless-steel clips, compliant edge metal, and underlayment rated for high-temp coastal conditions. We install GAF and CertainTeed products when they fit, and we stock what Aransas Pass roofs actually need.
Tile Roofing
Barrel tile and flat tile hold up in coastal wind, but the deck underneath has to carry the weight. Pre-Harvey bungalows with original 1950s roof decks sag under tile loads, leading to water ponding and premature deck rot. Tile roof repair in Aransas Pass runs $600-$2,500. Before we set a single tile, we verify the deck, the hurricane ties, and the flashing. If the deck won’t carry it, you’ll get that in writing before we proceed.

Trusted Brands We Service in Aransas Pass
We install materials you can look up, not mystery brands off a van. On Aransas Pass roofs, that means GAF and CertainTeed for composition and standing seam systems, with Simonton and PGT windows and opening protection when the TWIA windstorm requirements extend to skylights and roof-adjacent glazing. We stock the flashings, clips, and underlayments Aransas Pass jobs actually require, so you’re not waiting on a truck from Dallas while your deck is open.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Aransas Pass Homes
- Corroded fasteners and failed flashing: The ship channel sends salt-laden onshore wind across every roof in Aransas Pass. Galvanized fasteners rust through, step flashing lifts, and water gets in. By the time you see a stain on the ceiling, the deck underneath has been wet for months.
- Missed TWIA hurricane ties on elevated pier homes: Post-Harvey homes sitting 8-10 feet off grade develop lift and shear failures at the eave-to-wall connection when out-of-area crews skip the required connectors. TWIA inspectors catch it. Your windstorm insurance depends on it.
- Rotting roof decks on unrestored pre-Harvey bungalows: Original 1950s framing under a 1970s composition roof wasn’t built for today’s wind loads or tile weights. Water ponding on sagged sections rots the sheathing until the deck starts to fail.
- Failed underlayment from the 2017 rebuild wave: Some post-Harvey work was rushed, and the underlayment wasn’t rated for Aransas Pass humidity. We see dried, cracked, and split membrane that looks fine from the ground but fails the first time a coastal storm drives rain sideways.

FAQs - Roofing in Aransas Pass
Yes. TWIA windstorm requirements apply to virtually every permitted roofing project in Aransas Pass, because your windstorm insurance certificate depends on passing the TWIA inspection. If the inspector flags missing hurricane ties, non-compliant edge metal, or undersized connectors, your coverage is at risk. We build to TWIA standards on every roof, whether it’s a repair or a full replacement. Call (877) 610-1318 for an exact scope.
Every 12 to 18 months. The salt-laden onshore wind off the ship channel corrodes fasteners and flashing faster than inland roofs. A quick inspection catches failed step flashing before water reaches the deck. Free second opinions are always available on any written estimate. Call (877) 610-1318.
Standing seam metal is the most common answer for elevated Aransas Pass homes. It handles salt corrosion better than composition shingles and installs with the stainless-steel clips TWIA inspectors expect. That said, the honest answer depends on your deck structure and the exact flood-zone elevation. A free estimate will tell you what actually fits your home. Call (877) 610-1318.
Most roof replacements require a permit, and many repairs do too, depending on the scope. We pull permits and schedule inspections on every eligible job, because the last contractor most people used told them permits were optional. We don’t play that game. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you exactly what your job requires.
Inspection first, allowance written into the contract, and any surprise priced and approved in writing before we touch it. On a reopened bungalow off Wheeler Avenue in 78336, our crew found original 1970s shingles with corroded fasteners and failed step flashing after years of salt wind. We tore down to decking, replaced rotted sheathing, installed a standing seam metal roof with stainless-steel clips and TWIA-compliant edge metal, and upgraded the underlayment to a peel-and-stick high-temp membrane. All of it documented in a change order the homeowner acknowledged before we touched the roof. That’s how we work. Call (877) 610-1318 for your free estimate.
