Roof replacement
Roof Replacement in Royse City, Rockwall & DFW
A new roof is one of the biggest checks you will write on your house, so you should know exactly why you need one before you sign anything. Duane starts every replacement the same way: he gets on the roof, takes pictures, and shows you what he found.
If a repair will buy you real years, he will tell you that instead. If it is time, you get a written estimate that spells out the scope, the materials and the price, and you get help with your insurance claim if storm damage is the reason.
Signs it is time for a new roof, not another patch
- Your roof is 15 to 20 years old, or you do not know its age at all
- Shingle edges are curling, cupping or cracking
- Granules are piling up in the gutters or at the bottom of downspouts
- Bald, shiny or dark patches across a slope
- You have patched the same area more than once
- Hail or wind damage across more than one slope
- Daylight or water stains in the attic
What a proper replacement includes
A roof is a system, not just shingles. Whoever you hire, ask them to put each of these in writing so you can compare bids on the same terms:
- Tear-off down to the decking, so damaged wood can be found and replaced instead of covered up
- Underlayment across the whole deck before a single shingle goes on
- New flashing at walls, chimneys and valleys, where most leaks start
- Ventilation that matches the attic, because a hot attic cooks shingles from underneath
- Pipe boots and vents replaced, not reused
- Magnet sweep of the yard and driveway for nails, and full debris haul-off
Shingle or metal
Most homes around Royse City and Rockwall are architectural asphalt shingle, and for most families that is still the best value. Impact-rated shingles are worth asking about if your street gets hail, since some insurers discount them.
Standing-seam metal costs more up front and lasts much longer. We have put metal on homes out here, including the one in the photos below on the edge of Royse City. Duane will lay out both options for your house rather than steering you to the bigger ticket.
Residential and commercial

Questions
Roof Replacement questions
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most single-family homes are a day or two on the roof, weather permitting. Bigger or steeper roofs and any rotted decking add time. Duane will give you the timeline for your house in the written estimate.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof?
In Royse City and Rockwall, yes. Both cities list re-roofing as work that needs a permit, and Royse City also requires the roofing contractor to be registered with the city. You should see the permit before work begins.
Will insurance pay for my new roof?
If the damage came from a covered event like hail or wind, it may. Duane documents the damage with photos, can meet your adjuster on the roof, and will tell you honestly if he does not see a claim worth filing. You are always responsible for your deductible; Texas law does not allow a roofer to cover it.
Do you replace commercial roofs?
Yes. Total Pro does residential and commercial roofing. Call Duane to set up an inspection of the building.
