What a roof replacement actually involves

A full roof replacement means removing everything down to the deck — shingles, underlayment, and old flashing — inspecting the deck for soft spots or damage, and rebuilding from the substrate up with new materials. It's a complete system, not just new shingles over old ones.

Replacing a roof in Central Texas means making choices that matter for your specific climate. The hail frequency here is real, and the material you put on affects both how well your home is protected and what you pay for homeowners insurance. We'll walk through those choices honestly — what the grades mean, what the discounts look like, and what we'd put on our own homes.

If you're not sure whether you need a replacement or a repair, that's a fine starting point. We'll look at the roof and give you an honest answer either way.

Many replacements in Central Texas follow a hail or storm event, and we manage the insurance claim end-to-end when that's the case. After installation, ongoing maintenance is the best way to protect the investment.

The replacement process

Here's what happens from inspection to a finished roof.

Free inspection.

We get on the roof and give you an honest read — replacement, repair, or fine as-is. We'll show you the photos and walk you through the findings.

Material selection.

We'll go through the options that make sense for your home, budget, and insurance situation — shingle grade, color, and any special considerations like tile or metal.

Permit and scheduling.

We pull the permit, order materials, and schedule a start date. Most projects are booked within a week or two.

Tear-off and installation.

We remove the existing material down to the deck, inspect and repair the deck as needed, install new underlayment, and put on the new roof. One day for most homes.

Cleanup and walkthrough.

We clean the job site, do a final walkthrough with you, and deliver your warranty documentation.

Replace or repair? Honest signals

Signs a replacement makes sense: the roof is over 20 years old; you're seeing widespread granule loss (the downspouts will be full of it after a rain); multiple leaks are showing up in different areas; a storm event has caused damage across the whole slope; or the repair cost approaches the cost of replacement given the age and expected remaining life.

Signs a repair may be sufficient: isolated damage — a few missing shingles, one failed flashing, a single leak point — on a roof that's otherwise in good shape and under 15 years old. Repairs done right extend the life of a sound roof. Don't replace what doesn't need replacing.

We'll give you a straight read on which situation you're in, with photos, and let you make the call. We're not going to push a replacement on a roof that doesn't need one.

Materials — what the options actually mean

Architectural shingles — the reliable standard.

Architectural (dimensional) shingles are the baseline for most residential replacements. They're thicker and more durable than 3-tab shingles, carry better warranties, and hold up well under normal Central Texas conditions. A solid, proven choice for straightforward replacements.

Class 3 impact-resistant shingles — the standard premium option.

Class 3 is a meaningful upgrade over standard architectural shingles and earns a Texas insurance discount at most carriers. It's what we recommend as a baseline when impact resistance matters — built to handle real hail without the top-end cost of Class 4.

Class 4 impact-resistant shingles — the strongest rating available.

Class 4 is the highest impact-resistance rating and earns the largest discount from Texas carriers. If you're replacing a roof that has taken repeated hail hits or you want the best long-term protection, Class 4 is worth knowing about. We'll tell you honestly whether the discount math works in your favor.

Metal roofing — durability and look for the right home.

Standing seam and exposed-fastener metal panels are common on Hill Country, ranch, and lake properties. Metal lasts significantly longer than shingles and sheds hail better. It's a higher upfront cost but a different conversation over a 40-year horizon. We install metal where it makes sense.

Why Brookson for a replacement

Impact-resistant as the standard, not an upgrade.

We default to a premium impact-resistant shingle on every replacement. The hail frequency in Central Texas makes this the responsible baseline — and it earns you an insurance discount, which helps offset the cost.

Deck inspection included.

During the tear-off, we inspect the deck for soft spots, rot, and damage. Any issues get addressed before the new roof goes on. Some contractors skip this step; we don't.

Both warranties — material and workmanship.

The manufacturer covers the shingle; we cover the install. You get both in writing. Most callbacks in roofing are workmanship failures, not material failures — that's why ours matters.

Clean job site, every time.

We protect landscaping, run a magnetic sweep for nails, and haul off all debris the same day. A replacement shouldn't leave you cleaning up for a week — it shouldn't look like anything happened except the roof is new.

Frequently Asked Questions

Age and the extent of damage are the main factors. A roof under 15 years with isolated damage is usually a repair candidate. A roof over 20 years with widespread damage — missing shingles, widespread granule loss, or multiple leak points — is typically a replacement. We'll look at both scenarios honestly and tell you which makes more sense financially for your situation.

Most residential replacements are completed in a single day, weather permitting. Larger homes, complex roof lines, or tile roofs take longer — we'll give you a firm timeline after the inspection.

Our standard is a premium impact-resistant shingle built for Central Texas weather. For homeowners who want the strongest protection available — and the largest insurance discount — we install Class 4 shingles as an upgrade. We also work with metal roofing and tile for homes where those are appropriate. We'll walk through the options and what makes sense for your home.

It can, in a good way. Many Texas carriers offer a discount for impact-resistant shingles, with the largest discount going to Class 4-rated materials. The actual discount depends on your carrier and policy, but it's worth asking your agent about before we finalize the material choice.

Yes, most Texas municipalities require a permit for a full tear-off and replacement. We pull the permit and handle all required inspections. It's included in the scope — not an add-on.

The manufacturer warranty covers defects in the shingle itself — if the material fails. Our workmanship warranty covers the install — if something we did causes a problem. You get both in writing. Most roofing failures are installation failures, which is why the workmanship warranty matters as much as it does.
