Round Rock is older and more varied than the towns east of it. Round Rock West, Eggers Acres, Chandler Creek and the neighborhoods off Gattis School Road date to the 1980s and 90s and are on second or third roofs, often with additions and skylights that complicate flashing. Forest Creek, Teravista, Behrens Ranch, Paloma Lake, Siena and Stone Oak were built from the late 1990s through the 2010s and make up the bulk of the replacement market, most of them on builder-grade shingles that are at or past their useful life in this climate.
Round Rock has a well-known history of damaging hail, including some of the largest stones recorded in the region, and the city is far enough north that it catches storms that miss Austin entirely. Many neighborhoods here have active HOAs with architectural rules on shingle color and profile, and the city requires permits for re-roofs, so the paperwork side of a Round Rock roof matters as much as the nailing.

Roof replacement, shingles, metal and inspections
New roofs installed to the manufacturer spec, not the builder spec, with the underlayment, flashing and ventilation that make a roof last in Central Texas heat and hail.
Round Rock has decades of roofs to replace: 1980s and 90s homes in Round Rock West and Chandler Creek on their third roof, and the 2000s subdivisions in Teravista, Forest Creek and Behrens Ranch coming due together. The city requires a permit for a re-roof and many HOAs specify the shingle, so we handle both before the tear-off, then build it with synthetic underlayment, ice and water shield and proper ventilation.
Round Rock has HOAs with shingle color and style rules, so we bring samples and confirm the approval before we order. Then the roof goes on to spec: underlayment, ice and water shield, ventilation, and an architectural or Class 4 shingle.
Standing seam is a good fit for the larger lots in Round Rock and the properties out toward Hutto and Georgetown, and we see more of it on remodels where the owner wants a roof that outlasts the next two hail cycles. In the HOA-controlled subdivisions it usually is not allowed, and we will tell you that up front rather than after a quote.
New construction roofing in Round Rock is mostly additions and second-story tie-ins in the established neighborhoods, plus custom homes and shops on the east side toward Hutto. We handle the dry-in and finish and the tie-in flashing that leaks when it is done wrong.
A free inspection is worth having on any Round Rock roof over ten years old, and on any 1980s or 90s home before you buy it. Skylights, additions and original flashing are where the surprises hide. We walk the roof, check the attic, and give you photos and a plain-language report.
Older Round Rock homes give us the repairs newer towns do not: skylight flashing, chimney counter-flashing, and additions where two roof planes meet badly. Those leaks show up at the top of a wall or around a light fixture and are almost always a flashing job, not a shingle job. We trace the entry point from the attic, reflash it, and check the rest of the roof.
Round Rock leaks vary by decade. On 1980s and 90s roofs in Chandler Creek and Cat Hollow it is old flashing and worn valleys; on newer two-stories it is pipe boots and wall flashing. We trace every one from the attic and fix the entry point, not the stain.
Round Rock's hail history is well known; the city has taken some of the biggest stones in the region and storms track through here that miss Austin entirely. After an event we inspect and document, and if it rises to a claim we work to the adjuster's approved scope. Round Rock HOAs often require approval of the replacement shingle, so we bring the product paperwork along.
Wind damage in Round Rock is common on the 1990s roofs in Chandler Creek and Cat Hollow, where old seal strips let go in the first strong front, and on two-story slopes in newer subdivisions. We inspect every slope, repair what is lifted or missing, and document the rest with the storm date.
Round Rock emergencies are hail season and wind: shingles gone, a skylight that let go, a limb through an addition roof in one of the older neighborhoods. Call, and we tarp or patch to stop the water, document it for your claim, and come back for the permanent repair on a written scope.
Round Rock has a long hail history and carriers know it. We document your roof slope by slope with the storm date, tell you honestly whether the damage is there, meet the adjuster, and do the work to the approved scope with the code items included.
Round Rock has one of the largest commercial roof stocks in our area: retail along I-35 and University Boulevard, offices and medical near the hospitals, warehouses and flex space off Louis Henna and Highway 79. We inspect TPO, modified bitumen and metal roofs, take cores, and give property managers written options per building.
Most flat commercial roofs in Round Rock are TPO, from the retail centers along I-35 to the flex buildings off Louis Henna. We repair seams, drains and curb flashings, replace sections with wet insulation, and install new TPO on additions and re-roofs.
