residential roof replacement your roof is the most significant and complex single purchase you’ll make as a homeowner and hiring the right roof replacement contractor can often be a complex choice. With the expertise of a director - level project manager leading every single - family project, regardless of its size - from a 1,400-square - foot single - story home in Richardson to a spacious 4,000-square - foot two - story home in Buckhead - Pro Exteriors prioritizes the best outcomes. We commit to using high - grade materials from manufacturers, acquire all the necessary permits upfront and back up every installation with a written warranty you can trust.
Why choose Pro Exteriors for residential roof replacement?
Most roofing contractors in our local markets focus on volume. Their approach is typically rapid and involves cost - saving measures, compromising on vital components such as underlayment and attic ventilation and then disappearing before any major storms appear to put their work to the test. Pro Exteriors takes a different, much more thorough approach. We institute a comprehensive quality - control process for each and every residential replacement, beginning with an inspection before we even touch your existing roof, a full assessment of your attic deck and an in - depth ventilation analysis, all of which are performed before a single shingle is removed. The rationale behind this sequence is to preempt any mid - job complications, which invariably translate into increased costs and protracted timelines for you.
As approved installers for leading brands like GAF, CertainTeed and Atlas, we possess the authorization to provide manufacturer - backed labor warranties that are simply unavailable to independent roofing contractors. A GAF Golden Pledge or a CertainTeed SureStart Plus warranty is not a superficial sales tactic, it’s a concrete manufacturer - guaranteed agreement covering both materials and workmanship for as long as 25 years. This warranty can make a real difference in your decision when you’re weighing multiple quotes from various companies.
Our residential replacement division leverages the same robust project management structure that we employ for our larger commercial undertakings. This means each homeowner benefits from dedicated project managers, clearly outlined project timelines and a single point of contact from the moment the contract is signed through the final inspection. We believe you should not have to expend effort chasing down your roof replacement contractor for status updates - you’ll never have to do that with us.
What does a residential roof replacement entail?
A complete residential roof replacement goes far beyond a simple re - cover job. The process initiates with a complete tear - off of all existing roofing materials down to the underlying roof deck. This is the crucial step that allows us to thoroughly inspect the deck’s condition, address any rot, delamination or structural weaknesses and make necessary repairs before installing new materials. Cutting this corner to save time on labor is exactly how contractors create warranty - voiding layered installs that trap moisture and subsequently lead to premature roof failure.
After the roof deck is clear and any damaged sheathing is replaced at the established cost, the installation follows a well - defined sequence. First, ice - and - water shield is installed along the roof’s eaves and valleys. Next, synthetic underlayment is applied over the main field of the roof, followed by the installation of your chosen primary roofing material. In most residential projects, this primary material consists of architectural asphalt shingles. We predominantly use GAF Timberline HDZ and CertainTeed Landmark shingles. Both of these top - selling products are rated for Class 4 impact resistance, an important consideration in Texas where hail storms are a frequent occurrence and in areas like Colorado. Another excellent alternative for homeowners primarily concerned about algae growth in humid environments, such as those found in Atlanta, is Atlas Pinnacle Pristine.
The most frequent failure point for residential roof replacements lies in the flashing. The proper installation of step flashing along walls, kickout flashing where the rake wall meets the wall and correctly sealed pipe boots is an absolute prerequisite on every Pro Exteriors project. We don’t reuse existing flashing on a full roof replacement, as doing so is a cost - cutting measure that can create significant liability issues for the homeowner within a three to five - year period.
We meticulously evaluate and document every job for proper ridge ventilation, soffit intake ventilation and overall attic airflow. Subpar ventilation not only nullifies manufacturer warranties but can also shorten the lifespan of your shingles by several years. We carefully record ventilation measurements and include them in your project file for your records.
How we service Dallas - Fort Worth and beyond
Our headquarters is strategically located in Richardson, Texas, placing us at the heart of the Dallas - Fort Worth metropolitan area and allowing us easy access to all major DFW suburbs, including Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Arlington, Fort Worth and many others. Homeowners throughout North Texas contend with two primary hail seasons: one that spans from March through June and another in the fall. We proactively maintain adequate staffing levels year - round to address these demands. You’ll not encounter a three - week waiting list when a storm hits because we plan for it.
Outside of Texas, our residential replacement teams extend their services to Denver, Colorado, where freeze - thaw cycles and high - altitude ultraviolet radiation necessitate careful selection of materials, to Wichita, Kansas and Kansas City, Missouri, where wind - driven rain and conditions adjacent to tornado threats are the main culprits behind premature roof failures and to Atlanta, Georgia, where humidity, persistent algae growth and the aging housing stock contribute to consistent demand for comprehensive roof replacements over repairs. Each of these markets has its own dedicated local crew and a regional project manager overseeing the operations - we don’t use fly - in labor or subcontract random strangers to work on your home.
