Complete roof installation and replacement for Houston homes. Asphalt, metal, tile, and flat roofing systems built to withstand Gulf Coast weather.
Your roof is the single most important system protecting your home and everything in it. In Houston's climate — intense summer heat, regular hurricanes, hail events, and constant humidity — residential roofing takes more abuse than almost anywhere else in the country. A roof installed correctly, with the right materials and proper flashing, will protect your home for decades. A roof installed poorly will cost you tens of thousands in interior damage, mold remediation, and premature replacement.
Houston Roofing has installed and replaced residential roofs across the Greater Houston area for over 20 years. We work on homes ranging from Heights bungalows and Montrose craftsman houses to River Oaks estates and new construction in West University. Every project follows the same disciplined process and is backed by our free on-site estimate, workmanship warranty, and manufacturer certification.
Every residential roofing project begins with a thorough on-site inspection. Our estimator walks the roof, documents existing conditions with photos, identifies any underlying damage to decking or flashing, and measures accurately so pricing is based on real square footage rather than guesses. You receive a written, itemized estimate within 48 hours — no pressure, no surprise charges.
Once you approve the estimate and select your material, we schedule the installation around your availability. Most residential installations take 1 to 3 days for asphalt shingles and 3 to 7 days for metal or tile. Our crews arrive early, respect your landscaping and driveway, and clean the property completely at the end of each workday — including magnetic nail sweeps to protect tires and bare feet.
After installation, we conduct a final walk-through with you, review the warranty paperwork, and register the manufacturer warranty in your name. Every Houston Roofing residential installation is backed by our 10-year workmanship warranty and the full manufacturer material warranty — up to 50 years depending on the system you choose.
Architectural Asphalt Shingles. The most common choice for Houston homes. Modern architectural shingles offer 25-30 year lifespans, excellent wind ratings (up to 130 mph with proper installation), and a wide range of colors and profiles. We install all major brands including GAF, Owens Corning, CertainTeed, and Atlas.
Metal Roofing. Standing seam and stone-coated steel metal roofs last 40-70 years and perform exceptionally against Houston wind and hail. Metal reflects heat better than asphalt, which can reduce cooling costs during Houston summers. Higher upfront cost, but often the most cost-effective option over the full lifespan.
Clay and Concrete Tile. For upscale homes and Mediterranean or Spanish architectural styles. Clay tile lasts 50+ years, handles Houston heat without degrading, and adds significant curb appeal. Requires reinforced decking to support the weight.
Flat and Low-Slope Systems. Many Houston homes have flat sections over garages, additions, or mid-century designs. We install TPO, modified bitumen, and EPDM for these sections, all with proper slope correction and drainage to prevent ponding.
Not every aging roof needs replacement. If your roof is under 15 years old and the damage is localized, targeted roof repairs may be the right call. If the roof is approaching end of life, has widespread damage, or you are dealing with repeated leaks, replacement is almost always more cost-effective than repeated patching. Our free inspection includes an honest recommendation either way — we don't upsell replacements that aren't warranted.
If your roof has taken recent storm damage, see our storm damage repair page. We coordinate directly with your insurance company to process hurricane, hail, and wind claims, which often covers the full replacement cost minus your deductible.
Before any decision, schedule a free roof inspection. You will receive a photo report, an assessment of remaining roof life, and specific recommendations with pricing.

Architectural asphalt shingles are the most popular choice for Houston homes — they balance cost, durability, and hurricane wind resistance. Metal roofing (standing seam or stone-coated steel) is increasingly popular for its 40-70 year lifespan and excellent performance against hail. Clay and concrete tile suit higher-end homes and last 50+ years. Flat TPO or modified bitumen works for modern or mid-century homes with low-slope sections.
Most Houston residential roof replacements run $8,000-$25,000 for asphalt shingle, $20,000-$50,000 for metal, and $35,000-$80,000+ for tile — driven by roof size, pitch, complexity, and material choice. Houston Roofing provides itemized written estimates so you can see exactly what each line item covers before you commit.
Most Houston homes are completed in 1-3 days for asphalt shingles and 3-7 days for metal or tile. The crew arrives early, tears off the old material, installs underlayment and flashing, lays the new roofing, and cleans up completely — typically without you needing to leave the home.
Yes. Houston Roofing is a manufacturer-certified installer, which qualifies your roof for extended manufacturer warranties up to 50 years depending on material. In addition, we provide a 10-year workmanship warranty on the installation itself. Warranty terms are written into every estimate so there are no surprises.
Common signs include curling or cupping shingles, significant granule loss (visible as piles in your gutters), visible cracks or splits, repeated leaks, daylight visible from the attic, sagging rooflines, and a roof older than 20 years. A free professional inspection will tell you definitively whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
