Roof Repair in Elgin, TX
Fix the roof you have when that is the honest answer.
Elgin repairs split between town and country. In town it is flashing at old chimneys and additions, and pipe boots on roofs that have been patched before. On the county roads it is wind damage on roofs with no windbreak, and screws and washers failing on older metal. We repair what will hold and say so when it will not.
Roof Repair in Elgin: What It Looks Like Here
Elgin roof repair splits between two kinds of houses. Near downtown and along the older streets off Main and Highway 95 are 1920s to 1960s homes with steep pitches, original decking, chimneys and additions, and their repairs are flashing repairs: a chimney cricket that never existed, a valley worn through to the underlayment, an addition roof tied into the original with roof cement. Out in the newer subdivisions off 290 and in Eagle's Landing it is the same builder-roof repairs we see in Manor: split pipe boots, lifted ridge caps and nail pops.
On the older homes we are honest about decking. If the leak has been running for years, the boards under it are often soft, and a repair that does not replace them is not a repair. We open it up, replace what is bad, and flash it properly. On metal roofs on the county roads, repair usually means new fasteners with fresh washers, resealed laps, and a replaced panel where hail or wind split one.
A repair here gets looked at fast, and we cover the county roads out toward McDade and Coupland. Photos before and after on every repair, and a plain answer on whether the roof has years left.

Roof Repair in Elgin: Questions
