Roof Replacement in Elgin, TX
Shingle roof replacement done to the manufacturer spec, not the builder spec.
Replacing a roof in Elgin often starts with what is underneath. Homes near the historic downtown can have two or three layers of old shingles over decking that has never been seen, and the replacement is not right until all of it is off and the soft sheets are replaced. In Saratoga Farms, Harvest Ridge and the newer subdivisions it is the same builder-grade replacement we do in Manor, done to spec.
Roof Replacement in Elgin: What It Looks Like Here
Roof replacement in Elgin is two different jobs. On the older homes around downtown and along the county roads it means stripping two or three layers, often down to plank decking, replacing what is rotten, and adding the flashing at chimneys and additions that never existed. On the newer subdivisions off 290 it is a straight tear-off and re-roof done better than the builder did it, with real underlayment and ventilation.
Elgin homeowners also ask about metal more than most, and for a lot of properties out here it is the right answer: a standing seam or R-panel roof on the house and the shop together, with a decades-long service life and better hail resistance than asphalt. We price shingle and metal side by side so you can compare honestly.
We cover the county roads toward McDade, Coupland and Paige. On acreage we can roof the house and the shop in one job and price each separately.
What Roof Replacement Includes

Where We Work in Elgin
Elgin is a different roofing job than the subdivisions west of it: older homes downtown, acreage properties with shops and barns, and a lot of metal. More about roofs in Elgin.
Roof Replacement in Elgin: Questions
My Elgin house has plank decking. Does that change the replacement?
Often, yes. Gapped plank decking usually needs sheathing over it or replacement to meet the shingle manufacturer requirements, and we price that in up front rather than as a surprise on the day.
