Roof Replacement in North Austin, TX
Shingle roof replacement done to the manufacturer spec, not the builder spec.
Replacing a roof on a 1970s or 80s home in Windsor Hills, Walnut Creek or Gracywoods is a different job from a subdivision replacement: original decking that may be delaminated, low-slope sections that need a membrane rather than shingles, and ventilation that was never adequate. We plan for decking repair, roof the low-slope areas correctly, and add the intake and ridge ventilation the house should have had.
Roof Replacement in North Austin: What It Looks Like Here
Roof replacement on the north side of Austin means dealing with old roofs and old details. Windsor Hills, Walnut Creek, Quail Creek and the neighborhoods off North Lamar have 1970s and 80s homes with layered shingles, low-slope sections that were shingled, and decking that has never been seen since the house was built. Harris Branch, Pioneer Crossing and the subdivisions off Parmer are 2000s roofs that just need to be done right this time.
On the older homes the replacement includes membrane on the low-slope sections, decking replacement, and proper flashing at every wall and chimney. On the newer ones it is a clean tear-off with synthetic underlayment, ventilation and a Class 4 shingle. A City of Austin re-roof permit generally applies and we handle it.
Many older north Austin homes have gapped plank decking under the shingles, which usually needs sheathing before a new roof can go on to spec; we check for it at the inspection and price it up front rather than as a surprise on tear-off day.
What Roof Replacement Includes
- Tear-off to bare decking, old nails pulled
- Decking inspection; soft or rotten sheets replaced
- Synthetic underlayment over the whole deck
- Ice and water shield in valleys and around penetrations

Roof Replacement in North Austin: Questions
My 1970s Austin house has a flat section. Can you replace the whole roof?
Yes. The steep parts get shingles or metal and the flat section gets a low-slope membrane such as TPO, tied together properly. One crew, one price.
