Inspection First, Always
We inspect before we recommend. We never suggest a replacement when a repair is the right call.

Zilker Roofing is a proud RCAT member, committed to higher standards of workmanship, ethics, and accountability for every roof we inspect, repair, or replace in Greater Austin.
What is the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (RCAT)?
RCAT is a statewide trade association that promotes professionalism and consumer protection in the Texas roofing industry. Because Texas does not have a state roofing license, RCAT membership and licensing have become one of the strongest indicators that a roofer is serious about training, insurance, safety, and doing the right thing for homeowners. Independent Texas roofing association. Sets standards for training, insurance, and business practices. Offers a voluntary licensing program for roofing contractors. Advocates for homeowners and ethical contractors across the state.

How the estimate works ↗Before you decide
A few good questions.
How long do roofs typically last?
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.
What steps are involved in a comprehensive roof inspection?
A thorough inspection includes examining shingles, flashing, ventilation, gutters, and checking for leaks or structural damage.
What is the process for scheduling a roofing project with Zilker Roofing?

Do you Offer Warrantied Roofing Work?
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.
