Homes in Manor and greater Austin
Roof replacement, shingles, metal and inspections
New roofs installed to the manufacturer spec, not the builder spec, with the underlayment, flashing and ventilation that make a roof last in Central Texas heat and hail.
Pick the symptom. Most of these need a look from the roof; a couple can wait, and we will tell you which.
Water stain on the ceiling
Likely cause: A split pipe boot, failed flashing, or a nail pop uphill from the stain.
Needs a look from the roof: Put a bucket under it and photograph the stain. Do not climb on a wet roof. The entry point is usually several feet above where the water shows.
Likely cause: Normal aging on a 12-plus-year-old roof, or hail knocking granules loose.
Fine to watch for now: A few granules on a new roof are normal. Piles on an older roof mean the shingles are wearing out; an inspection tells you how long it has left.
Tech Ridge Roofing is a locally owned Central Texas roofing company working across the greater Austin area, from Williamson County and the east side out to the Hill Country. We are not a storm-chasing crew that shows up after a hail event and disappears by fall. You deal with the owner, you get a free inspection with photos, a written scope and price before anything starts, and a roof installed to the manufacturer's specification with the underlayment, flashing and ventilation the builder usually skipped.
Roofs in Central Texas: what's different here
Central Texas is hard on roofs, and the reasons are the same from Manor and Pflugerville out to Georgetown, Kyle and the Hill Country. Most of the housing stock in the region went up between 2005 and 2022, built fast by production builders with builder-grade architectural shingles, minimal ridge ventilation and the thinnest underlayment allowed. Those roofs hit the end of their useful life around year twelve to fifteen here, well before the number printed on the shingle wrapper, and one strong hail season can finish them early.
Three things drive that. Heat: attic temperatures on a Central Texas roof run well over 130°F for months, cooking the asphalt and pushing granules off the south and west slopes first. Hail: the corridor from eastern Travis County up through Williamson County is one of the most active in the country, and most springs bring at least one storm with hail large enough to bruise shingles across whole subdivisions. Soil: east of I-35 it is Blackland Prairie clay that swells and shrinks with the seasons, moving foundations enough to open gaps at wall flashing and crack older pipe boots; west of I-35 it is thin soil over limestone, with trees, wind and steeper custom roofs bringing their own problems. A roof here needs to be inspected after storms and looked at closely once it passes ten years, and when it is replaced it should get real underlayment, real ventilation and, for most homeowners, a Class 4 impact-resistant shingle.
Manor, Pflugerville, Hutto, Elgin and Bastrop County
Home base. Fast-growing subdivisions on Blackland Prairie clay, builder-grade roofs from the 2005 to 2022 boom, and the busiest hail corridor in the region.
From the ground you usually cannot. Look for dents in gutters, downspouts and the soft metal on roof vents, granules piling up at downspouts, and neighbors getting roofs replaced after the same storm. The reliable answer is a free inspection on the roof, where hail hits can be seen and photographed.
Yes. Inspections and estimates are free for homeowners in Manor and our service area, with no obligation. If the roof does not need work, we tell you that.
No. Texas law (House Bill 2102) prohibits contractors from waiving or absorbing deductibles, and insurers require proof you paid yours. Anyone offering to cover it is breaking the law and putting your claim at risk.
Texas has no state roofing license, so "licensed" on a roofing ad means nothing here. What matters is insurance and a written scope. Ask any roofer, including us, for a current certificate of insurance before work starts.
Most homes in Manor and Pflugerville are done in a single day. Larger or steeper roofs can take two. We schedule around the weather.
