Flat-roof systems for the offices and condos around Greenway Plaza, and full townhome roofing for the residential blocks along Timmons, Edloe, and Cummins.
The Greenway area centers on Greenway Plaza, the office complex along the Southwest Freeway between Buffalo Speedway and Edloe, and spills into the surrounding blocks of Richmond Avenue, Timmons Lane, and Cummins Street. It's a vertical neighborhood by Houston standards: condo towers and mid-rises, low-rise office and medical buildings, and dense townhome clusters filling the streets between the freeway and Westheimer.
Almost every roof here is either flat or a hybrid of steep and flat — which is exactly the work Houston Roofing has specialized in for more than 20 years. We serve the area's associations, property managers, building owners, and individual townhome owners with the same crews and the same documentation standards.
Condo and Mid-Rise Systems. The residential towers around Greenway Plaza carry flat membrane and built-up roofs managed through boards and property managers. We scope for associations, plan access and staging around residents, and document every phase for board records.
Low-Rise Office and Retail. TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen for the office and retail buildings along Richmond and the freeway frontage roads. Recover versus tear-off, insulation upgrades, and drainage corrections — full details on our commercial roofing page.
Townhome Roofing. The clusters along Timmons, Edloe, and Cummins mix steep shingle slopes with flat decks. We handle the whole system — shingles, membrane, and the transition flashings where most leaks start. See residential roofing.
Storm Damage and Insurance. Hail and wind events that cross the Inner Loop hit Greenway's flat roofs hard — punctures and membrane bruising are easy to miss from the ground. We inspect, photograph, and coordinate claims — see storm damage repair.
Drainage rules everything on a flat roof, and Houston's downpours are unforgiving. Internal drains, scuppers, and tapered insulation have to move water off the roof fast; a single clogged drain on a condo or office roof can pond a staggering amount of water over an occupied space. We build drainage checks into every estimate and every maintenance visit.
Logistics are the second challenge. Working next to occupied towers and busy office buildings means crane and hoist scheduling, protected walkways, and coordination with building engineers — the kind of project management that matters as much as the membrane itself.
For townhome owners, the recurring issue is the steep-to-flat transition and parapet detail. Water that slips behind a cap flashing shows up two rooms away, months later. Catching it early is far cheaper than chasing it — our roof repair crews trace leaks to the source before quoting anything.
For owners weighing budgets, recover systems are worth understanding. When an existing flat roof is dry and structurally sound, code often allows a new membrane to go over it, saving the cost and disruption of a full tear-off; when moisture has soaked into the insulation, tear-off is the only honest answer. We take core samples and moisture readings before recommending either path, so boards and owners decide from data rather than a sales pitch. We also offer scheduled maintenance — drain clearing before storm season, seam checks, and photo-documented condition reports that make capital planning easier.
Greenway Plaza and the freeway frontage — office, medical, and mixed-use flat roofs.
Timmons, Edloe, and Cummins corridors — townhome clusters and small multifamily.
Upper Kirby — townhomes and commercial low-rise immediately east.
Afton Oaks — established single-family streets west toward the 610 Loop.
Association board, property manager, or individual owner — the first step is the same: a free inspection with a photo report you can circulate, followed by an itemized estimate with clear options.
Yes. We serve the Greenway Plaza area and the surrounding blocks along Richmond, Timmons, Edloe, and Cummins, plus neighboring Upper Kirby and Afton Oaks. Call (713) 527-2719 to confirm service for your address.
Yes. The condo towers and mid-rises around Greenway Plaza carry flat and low-slope systems that are managed through boards and property-management companies. We scope those projects for associations, handle access and staging logistics, and sequence work to limit resident disruption.
Low-rise office and retail buildings in the area typically run $4-$8 per square foot for TPO and EPDM systems and more for modified bitumen build-ups, depending on insulation, drainage, and tear-off scope. Townhome and residential replacements typically run $12,000-$35,000 for asphalt. Free itemized estimates.
Yes. The townhome clusters along Timmons, Edloe, and Cummins commonly combine steep shingle slopes with flat deck sections, and many sit in HOA communities. We handle the full system, the transition flashings between steep and flat, and the association coordination.
