Repair or replacement
Start with the roof’s condition and the extent of the problem. A written scope helps you compare repair and replacement options before deciding what makes sense for your home.

A localized repair may be appropriate when an inspection confirms isolated damage and a sound surrounding roof system. We assess visible roof conditions, where safe access allows, before setting the scope; a leak or a few visible damaged shingles alone cannot establish how much work is needed. Age alone does not decide whether a roof needs replacement.
Explore roof repairReplacement is warranted when damage is widespread, the roof is near the end of its useful life, or the system can no longer be repaired reliably. A roof inspection assesses visible roof conditions, where safe access allows, before the scope of work is set. When a targeted repair is appropriate, that is what we recommend.

However: We inspect the damage ourselves and provide insight before or after your claim; We evaluate the insurer’s Summary of Damages for missing items; We help you understand the pros and cons of each route.

Before you decide
Central Texas UV, heat, thermal cycling, and hail shorten roofing life compared with manufacturer marketing ranges. Asphalt shingles have a broad 10–20-year range; product and installation affect where a roof falls within it. Standing-seam metal commonly lasts 40–70 years. Tile and slate can last 50+ years as materials, though the underlayment beneath tile needs replacement sooner. TPO membranes commonly last 20–30 years. Ventilation, installation quality, and maintenance affect the life a particular roof delivers. These are material ranges, not a diagnosis of an individual roof.
A thorough inspection includes examining shingles, flashing, ventilation, gutters, and checking for leaks or structural damage.
Call us or use our online form to discuss your roof and arrange an inspection. Inspections are complimentary for most homeowners; if extensive attic access or documentation is needed, a flat rate is quoted upfront.
Roof replacements carry Zilker Roofing's 5-year workmanship warranty, and repairs carry a 2-year workmanship warranty. The manufacturer's material warranty is separate; its coverage depends on the product and installed system. We document the applicable terms in writing.
