Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Round Rock’s Preferred Roofing Company
Barrett & Sons has been owner-operated since 1998, and Tom Barrett’s name goes on every contract we write in Round Rock. The man answering the phone is the man who stands behind the work. That matters in this town, where neighbors still ask neighbors which contractor actually showed up on time and did what he said he’d do.
What do our Round Rock customers tell us? The two things that come up again and again are written change orders and the 90-Day Done Right Promise. When we quote a roof, the scope is in writing. If anything changes on the job, it changes in writing before a single nail moves. No surprise invoices. If it’s not done right, Tom comes back. One call, and he’s there. That’s the promise, printed on every contract.

Our Roofing Services in Round Rock
Roof Repair
Most Round Rock repair calls fall in the $400-$1,800 range, and they usually involve a few familiar culprits. Wind-driven rain working under loose flashing at a wall-roof junction, a hail-damaged cap, or a pipe boot that dried out and split in the heat. We document what we find, quote the fix in writing, and don’t pad the job with work that isn’t needed.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Roof replacement in Round Rock runs $8,000-$20,000 depending on roof size, pitch, tear-off, decking repair, and the system you choose. On tract homes built between 1995 and 2015, we routinely find builder-grade decking with no hurricane clips and no strapping. If we’re going to replace the roof, we re-secure the truss-to-wall connections while the deck is open. That’s the right time to do it, and it’s what a code-compliant job requires.
Metal Roofing
Metal roof installation in Round Rock starts around $15,000 and can reach $40,000 on a larger, steeper home. You’re paying for the material, the detailing, and the fastening method. Standing seam metal with a full peel-and-stick underlayment is one of the most storm-resistant systems you can put on a Central Texas house. Given what Round Rock weather does to shingle roofs, more homeowners here are making that switch when the second roof of the house comes due.
Tile Roofing
We repair tile roofs in Round Rock more often than we install them new, and tile repair typically runs $600-$2,500. Barrel tile shoulders crack from hail impact, and walking on tile breaks more of it if the work is done by someone who doesn’t know how to maneuver on the stuff. If a tile roof is installed correctly it lasts decades, but the flashing and underlayment are the actual water-shedding system. When those fail, the tile has to come off in sections to fix what’s underneath.

Trusted Brands We Service in Round Rock
We stock GAF shingles and accessories for most Round Rock jobs, which means we’re not chasing parts across the county when a roof deck is open and the weather window is short. For metal work, we install systems our crews can stand behind and that meet current Texas wind-load requirements. You’ll see the brand name written on your contract, not a mystery product off the back of a van. If you want to look the product up before you sign, please do.
Common Roofing Problems We See in Round Rock Homes
- Movement-related flashing separation: Round Rock sits on expansive Blackland Prairie clay. The slab moves, like it does in most of Williamson County, and after enough wet-dry cycles the roof-to-wall connections flex and flashing pulls loose. We see this on 1995-2015 tract homes in Teravista, Stone Canyon, and Forest Creek more than people expect. It opens leaks that aren’t from any storm.
- Missing hurricane clips and strapping: The builder-grade roofs on many D.R. Horton and KB Home houses in 78665 and 78681 were framed fast and cheap. No clips, no strapping. During Round Rock’s severe thunderstorm wind events, that means uplift. The roof doesn’t just leak. It wants to leave.
- Undervented low-slope sections: A lot of Lennar and KB Home models have low-slope sections that were underpinned and undervented from day one. Attic temps above 100°F bake the shingles from underneath. Granule loss, curling, thermal cracking, premature replacement. We correct the ventilation when we reshingle.
- Rotten fascia and rafter tails at roof-wall intersections: On east-side subdivisions like Forest Creek, built on former farmland, original builder grading often leaves water running toward the house. The runoff wicks up into fascia and rafter tails, and rot sets in before the shingles even fail. A “roof leak” is sometimes a drainage problem that traveled upward.

FAQs - Roofing in Round Rock
Yes. A full roof replacement in Round Rock requires a building permit, and the city will send an inspector to check the work in at least two stages: after the decking and underlayment are in place, and again at final. We pull the permit ourselves on every eligible job and we don’t close out the job until the inspection is signed. The permit inspector works for you, not for me. That’s the point.
Your roof should meet the wind-load requirements in Round Rock’s adopted building code, which for most residential roofs means materials and fastening rated for the appropriate design wind speed. GAF’s high-wind rated shingles with the proper nail pattern and full peel-and-stick underlayment meet those requirements. We’ll put the product name and the fastening method on your written proposal so you can verify it yourself. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate.
Usually, it’s both. The expansive clay under Teravista moves, the slab flexes, and the wall-roof connection opens up enough to pull the flashing loose. That’s a roofing repair combined with a structural re-securing of the roof-to-wall connection. We’ve fixed this exact pattern on KB and D.R. Horton homes in 78665, and the fix holds because we address the movement point, not just the shingle above it.
Often yes, especially if you upgrade to impact-resistant or high-wind-rated materials and the work is documented with the permit and final inspection. Insurers in Texas look at wind and hail resistance when they price a policy. We’ll provide the documentation your agent needs: the permit number, the inspection sign-off, the product specifications, and the scope in writing. Ask your carrier about GAF or standing seam metal, and we’ll give you the paperwork to match.
Permits and inspection scheduling, re-securing roof-to-wall connections when the deck is open, proper fastening per the product’s wind rating, peel-and-stick underlayment in the code-required zones, and written change orders for anything not in the original scope. A cheap quote assumes the frame is fine and the deck is fine, and leaves those line items as surprises for later. Our quote tells you before we start. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you one you can read line by line.
