A proper roof replacement starts well before the first shingle goes down, it starts with the drip edge. That metal flashing along every eave and rake edge is what keeps water from wicking under your new roof deck and rotting out the fascia behind it. Skip it, or install it wrong, and a $12,000 roof starts failing from the edges before the second rainy season. We don't skip it. Every replacement we complete includes correctly lapped drip edge, full synthetic underlayment, and ice-and-water shield in every valley, the details that determine whether your roof lasts 15 years or 30. We carry a 10-25 year warranty on our work, and if you have qualifying hail or wind damage verified by storm reports, we guarantee to get your home insurance premiums down. That's a promise with teeth. Call (832) 386-9606 to schedule your free inspection.

What a replacement actually costs depends on factors your neighbor's quote won't tell you: the total square footage of your roof planes, the pitch and complexity of the geometry, how many layers of old material we're tearing off, whether the decking underneath has soft spots that need replacing, and what shingle class you choose. Architectural shingles in a Class 3 or Class 4 impact-resistant grade cost more than standard 3-tab, but in Greater Houston's hail corridor, the insurance savings on a Class 4 shingle upgrade often offset the price difference faster than you'd expect. We bring physical shingle samples to every consultation so you can feel the weight and see the color against your exterior before you commit to anything. Every job is different, contact PPB Roofs And Restoration for an accurate estimate. Financing is available for qualifying homeowners.

The Process

What Happens on Replacement Day

  1. Tear-Off and Deck Inspection

    We remove every layer of existing material down to the deck. Once we're there, we walk every square foot of sheathing, probing for soft spots and checking the existing drip edge. Rotted decking gets replaced on the spot. We don't cover problems up. You see the deck before a single sheet of underlayment goes down.

  2. Underlayment, Flashing, and Ice Barrier

    Synthetic underlayment goes down across the full deck. Ice-and-water shield runs up every valley and around every penetration, pipe boots, vents, skylights. New drip edge is lapped correctly at all eaves and rakes. Flashing around chimneys and walls gets replaced if there's any sign of rust or lifting. This layer is what actually waterproofs the home.

  3. Shingle Installation, Cleanup, and Final Walkthrough

    Architectural shingles go on in staggered courses per manufacturer specifications, correct nail placement, correct exposure, no shortcuts on the ridge. When the last ridge cap is set, the crew tarps the landscaping and runs two magnet passes across the lawn to catch any fasteners. AJ or your project manager walks the finished roof with you before we consider the job closed.

What Drives the Cost of a Roof Replacement

None of these factors show up in a ballpark number: which is why ballpark numbers are nearly useless for this kind of job.

01

Roof Size and Complexity

Roofing is priced by the square (100 sq. Ft.). A straightforward gable roof installs faster than a hip-and-valley design with dormers and multiple penetrations. Complexity adds labor time and material waste, both show up in the final number.

02

Number of Existing Layers

Texas code allows two layers of asphalt shingles before a full tear-off is required. If your home already has two layers, we're tearing off twice the material weight before we even start. That adds disposal cost and labor hours.

03

Decking Condition

We can't know how much decking needs replacement until we're down to the sheathing. Homes in flood-prone areas of Fort Bend County sometimes have hidden moisture damage that didn't show up on the inspection report. We quote that work transparently and separately when we find it.

04

Shingle Class and Material

Standard architectural shingles, Class 3 impact-resistant, Class 4 impact-resistant, and standing seam metal roofing all land at different price points. The right material depends on your insurance situation, your neighborhood's hail history, and how long you plan to own the home.

05

Flashing and Accessory Scope

Chimney flashing, pipe boot replacements, skylight resealing, and gutter replacement are often bundled into a full replacement. It's cheaper to address these while the crew is already on the roof than to come back separately.

06

Insurance Coverage

Storm damage jobs run differently than standard replacements. We document damage, file with your carrier, and coordinate the scope with the adjuster directly. Our guarantee to reduce your premium for qualifying hail and wind claims means the insurance process is part of the service, not an afterthought.

Why It Matters

The Details Most Contractors Skip

  1. 01

    Drip Edge on Every Edge

    Code only requires drip edge at the eaves in most jurisdictions. We install it at the rakes too, because wind-driven rain doesn't only come from below. A rake without drip edge is an open invitation for fascia rot inside two years.

  2. 02

    Ice-and-Water Shield in Every Valley

    The valleys on your roof concentrate more water per linear foot than any other surface. Felt paper in a valley is not sufficient in a Houston-area climate that can dump 10 inches in a single event. We run self-adhering ice-and-water membrane in every valley on every job, period.

  3. 03

    Staggered Nail Patterns, Not Just Nail Count

    Shingles fail at the fastener when nails are driven too high or too deep. High nailing, placing fasteners above the manufacturer's nail strip, dramatically reduces the wind uplift resistance of the shingle. We nail to spec on every course. It's slower. It's correct.

What Our Warranty Actually Covers

A 5-year prime warranty with protection plan document displayed on a red clipboard against a wooden surface.
We back every roof replacement with a 10-25 year warranty depending on the product line selected. That covers both the materials and the workmanship, because a material failure and an installation failure look identical from inside a wet living room, and we won't have a conversation about which one it is when it's raining on your furniture. The longer end of that range is reserved for manufacturer-certified installs on premium shingle lines, where we carry the credentials to register the full extended warranty in your name. We'll tell you upfront which warranty tier your selected product qualifies for. If you sign up for our Roof Tune-Up program after your replacement, we inspect the system annually, catching flashing creep, nail pops, and sealant failure before they void the manufacturer's coverage. Most warranties have maintenance requirements. We help you keep them.

Storm Damage

When Insurance Is Paying for the Replacement

Insurance-funded replacements are a different process. We've done this enough to know exactly where claims stall, and how to keep yours moving.

  • Free inspection with documented photo evidence of every damaged surface

  • Storm report verification to confirm the event date and hail/wind intensity

  • On-site presence during the adjuster's inspection. We don't send you in alone

  • Scope review to confirm the adjuster's line items match the actual damage

  • Supplement negotiation if the initial scope misses items like drip edge, underlayment, or code upgrades

  • Guaranteed effort to reduce your insurance premium for qualifying hail and wind claims

What Homeowners Ask Before Replacing Their Roof

Still have a question?

Ask the team directly. We pick up, and a straight answer costs nothing.

Call (832) 384-4420Request an estimate
What is the average cost to replace an entire roof in the Greater Houston area?
Replacement cost is driven by roof size (measured in squares of 100 sq. Ft.), shingle class, deck condition, number of existing layers, and flashing scope. In the Greater Houston metro, a standard architectural shingle replacement on a typical single-story home varies considerably based on all of those factors combined. We don't publish ranges because a number that fits one house is wrong for another. Every job is different, contact PPB Roofs And Restoration for an accurate estimate.
Why does drip edge matter so much on a new roof?
Drip edge is the metal flashing that runs along the eaves and rake edges of your roof. Its job is to direct water away from the fascia and into the gutter rather than letting it wick back under the shingles and into the decking. Improperly installed or omitted drip edge is one of the most common causes of fascia rot and soffit damage we see on roofs that are only 5-8 years old. It's not optional on any job we do.
How long does a full roof replacement take for a standard residential home?
Most single-family homes in Fort Bend County complete in one day. That includes tear-off, deck inspection, underlayment, flashing, and full shingle installation. Larger homes with complex rooflines, multiple penetrations, or significant decking replacement can run into a second day. We don't rush the last hour of a job to hit an arbitrary schedule, if cleanup or final inspection pushes past dark, we finish the next morning.
Should I replace my roof or repair it after hail damage?
That depends on the shingle granule loss and the density of impact points across the roof surface. Isolated damage to one slope might be repairable. Widespread granule bruising across all slopes, especially combined with age-related brittleness, typically means a full replacement is more cost-effective than a targeted repair that will need revisiting in two or three storm seasons. We'll show you the inspection photos and give you a straight answer. We won't push replacement when a repair is the right call.
What is ice-and-water shield and do I need it in Texas?
Ice-and-water shield is a self-adhering waterproof membrane that bonds directly to the roof deck. It's designed for valleys, eaves, and penetration areas where standing or wind-driven water can back up under shingles. Texas building code doesn't mandate it across full roof decks the way northern states do, but it's required at eaves and valleys in most jurisdictions, and Houston's heavy rain events make valley coverage non-negotiable. We run it in all valleys and around every penetration on every replacement we do.
How does the insurance claim process work when replacing a storm-damaged roof?
After a documented storm event, we inspect your roof, photograph every damaged surface, and cross-reference the damage with verified storm reports. We're present at the adjuster's inspection to make sure the scope is complete. If the initial payout misses items, drip edge replacement, code-mandated upgrades, or interior damage, we file supplements. Read our full breakdown of how the insurance process works before your first adjuster call.
What's included in the cleanup after a roof replacement?
We tarp landscaping and any exposed HVAC equipment before tear-off begins. Once installation is complete, the crew does a full ground-level pass for nails, torn felt, and shingle scraps. We then run a magnetic roller across the lawn and driveway twice to catch any fasteners the visual pass missed. The dumpster pulls the same day in most cases. AJ or your project manager walks the perimeter with you before signing off.
