Roof Replacement in San Antonio, TX

Signs You Need a Roof Replacement

Recognizing when your roof needs complete replacement rather than simple repairs can save you thousands in emergency costs. After 26 years in South Texas, we’ve seen how quickly small problems become major headaches in our intense climate.

Age is the biggest factor. Most asphalt shingle roofs in San Antonio reach replacement time between 15-20 years due to our extreme UV exposure and temperature swings. If your roof is approaching this age, it’s time for a professional assessment.

Multiple leak areas indicate system failure. While one or two isolated leaks might be repairable, multiple leak points across your roof signal that the entire system is compromising. We often find that homeowners who delay replacement end up spending more on repeated repairs than a complete replacement would have cost.

Storm damage creates hidden problems. San Antonio’s severe weather—especially hail storms and high winds—can cause damage that isn’t immediately visible. Missing granules, cracked shingles, and compromised flashing often lead to water infiltration weeks or months later.

Types of Roofs We Replace

Our crew specializes in residential roof replacements across all common San Antonio home styles. We handle pitched roofs on traditional homes, hip roofs on ranch-style properties, and complex multi-level roofing systems on custom builds.

Residential sloped roofs make up 85% of our replacement projects. These include gable, hip, and combination roof designs typical in San Antonio neighborhoods. Flat and low-slope roofs on additions, porches, and modern homes require specialized membrane systems we install with precision. Commercial roof replacements for small businesses and multi-family properties are handled by our certified commercial crew.

We don’t just replace—we upgrade. Many older San Antonio homes benefit from improved ventilation systems and energy-efficient materials that weren’t available when originally built.

Roofing Materials We Install

Asphalt Shingles remain our most popular replacement option for San Antonio homeowners. These affordable, wind-resistant shingles perform exceptionally well in our climate, offering UV protection and good wind resistance up to 110 mph. We install premium GAF Master Elite and Owens Corning systems with 25-30 year warranties. The dimensional shingles provide excellent curb appeal while standing up to Texas heat cycles that can reach 110°F on roof surfaces.

Metal Roofing delivers unmatched durability for San Antonio’s extreme conditions. Our standing seam steel and aluminum systems reflect heat effectively, reducing cooling costs by up to 25% during summer months. With 40-50 year warranties, metal roofing excels in wind resistance (tested to 140 mph) and hail protection. We’ve installed metal systems that have weathered multiple severe storms without a single claim.

Clay and Concrete Tile provide the ultimate in heat reflection and longevity for San Antonio homes. These materials, common in Spanish Colonial and Mediterranean style homes, reflect solar heat better than any other option while offering 50+ year warranties. Boral tile systems we install are specifically engineered for Texas wind loads and thermal cycling.

We also install slate (natural and synthetic), wood shake, and specialized commercial membranes (TPO, PVC, EPDM) depending on your specific needs and architectural requirements.

Roof Replacement Costs in San Antonio

Roof replacement costs in San Antonio typically range from $8,500-$25,000 for most homes, depending on several key factors we evaluate during every estimate.

Roof size and complexity drive the biggest cost variations. A simple 1,200 square foot ranch replacement averages $9,500-$14,000, while complex multi-level homes with steep pitches can reach $18,000-$25,000. Material selection significantly impacts pricing—asphalt shingles offer the most value, while premium metal or tile systems cost 40-60% more but last twice as long.

Removal and disposal of your existing roof adds $2-$4 per square foot to the project. San Antonio disposal regulations require proper handling of old materials, which we include in every estimate. Structural repairs discovered during removal—common in homes over 20 years old—typically add $800-$2,500 depending on extent.

We provide detailed written estimates breaking down every cost component. Our pricing includes all permits, materials, labor, disposal, and cleanup with no hidden fees. Most San Antonio homeowners find our installations cost 15-20% less than emergency replacement after storm damage.
