A Roof Tune-Up is the smartest $199 you'll spend on asphalt shingle roof maintenance this year. Most roofs don't fail all at once. They fail at one cracked pipe boot, one section of lifted flashing, one row of loose shingles that let water creep under the deck over two or three rainstorms. Our 21-point inspection finds those weak spots before they become a leak inside your home. We're fully insured, we back the work with a 10 to 25-year warranty on qualifying repairs, and every Tune-Up comes with a written report you keep. Call (832) 386-9606 and we'll get you scheduled, including Saturdays.

The Tune-Up isn't just an inspection. Once we're up on the roof we seal exposed nail heads, re-secure loose shingles, caulk around pipe boots, and check every valley and drip edge for proper water diversion. If we find something larger than what the Tune-Up covers, we'll tell you straight and show you the photos before we ever hand you a proposal. We won't push a full replacement when a targeted repair is the right call. Cost drivers on any follow-up work include roof pitch, square footage, material type, and how far water has traveled under the deck. Every job is different -- contact PPB Roofs And Restoration for an accurate estimate.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

Every Tune-Up Covers These 21 Points

This is what we check, seal, and secure on every single visit -- no shortcuts based on how long the job takes.

  1. 01

    Shingle Condition

    Check for cracking, curling, blistering, and granule loss across every roof plane.

  2. 02

    Pipe Boot Seals

    Inspect and re-seal deteriorated rubber pipe boots -- one of the top sources of slow leaks in Houston-area homes.

  3. 03

    Flashing Integrity

    Check step flashing, counter flashing, and valley flashing for separation, rust, or improper overlap.

  4. 04

    Exposed Nail Heads

    Seal every exposed nail head with roofing caulk to prevent rust streaks and water infiltration.

  5. 05

    Ridge Cap Condition

    Inspect ridge cap shingles for nail pops, cracking, and wind lift -- the ridge takes the hardest hit in a storm.

  6. 06

    Drip Edge and Fascia

    Confirm drip edge is properly seated and that water is shedding away from the fascia board below.

  7. 07

    Soffit and Ventilation

    Verify soffit vents are clear and that attic airflow meets the roof system's design -- blocked vents accelerate shingle failure in Texas heat.

  8. 08

    Chimney and Skylight Surrounds

    Check sealant and flashing at every roof penetration for cracks or gaps.

Why Houston-Area Roofs Need Regular Tune-Ups

Asphalt shingle roof installation and repair work in progress on a residential home, showing roof underlayment, ventilation pipe, and partially installed shingles.
Asphalt shingles in Greater Houston take a beating that most shingle warranties weren't fully designed around. Sustained UV exposure above 95 degrees accelerates granule loss. Hail from spring storm systems leaves micro-fractures that don't show up as obvious dents but let water wick through over time. Hurricane-season wind gusts break the sealant strip on shingles that otherwise look intact from the ground. And that's before we talk about how Texas thermal cycling -- hot days, cool nights, repeat -- works pipe boot rubber until it cracks. One crack. That's all it takes. We've seen water travel twelve feet across a deck before it dropped into someone's ceiling. Scheduled asphalt shingle roof maintenance catches the entry point before the water finds its route.

THE PPB WAY

How the Tune-Up Works From First Call to Written Report

Three steps. No surprises. You'll have documentation in hand before we leave the driveway.

  1. Book and Show Up

    Call (832) 386-9606 or request an inspection online. We schedule Monday through Saturday, 9 to 7. A trained, insured technician arrives with all the tools to inspect and perform minor repairs in one visit.

  2. 21-Point Inspection and On-the-Spot Repairs

    We work through every checkpoint systematically. Loose shingles get re-secured. Pipe boots get re-sealed. Exposed nail heads get caulked. We photograph everything we find, including what's in good shape so you have a baseline for next time.

  3. Written Report and Straight Talk

    You get a detailed written report with photos. If something needs more than a Tune-Up covers, we tell you what it is, why it matters, and what happens if it sits. No pressure, no inflated scope. Just the facts so you can make the call.

When a Tune-Up Is Enough and When It Isn't

01

Tune-Up Is the Right Call

Your roof is 5 to 15 years old and hasn't had a professional check in more than a year. You've had routine storms but no major hail event. You want to extend roof life before replacement becomes the conversation.

02

You Need a Full Storm Damage Assessment

A named storm hit your area, you see granule wash in the gutters, or your neighbor already has a claim approved. That's not a Tune-Up situation. That's a storm damage assessment and possible insurance claim.

03

You Need Emergency Response

Active leak, water coming through the ceiling, or visible structural damage after a storm. Call us immediately. We offer emergency tarp and leak protection and respond the same day.

04

Your Roof May Be Past Tune-Up Stage

If your roof is over 20 years old and you're seeing widespread granule loss, multiple soft spots, or daylight in the attic, a Tune-Up is not the answer. We'll tell you that honestly and walk you through what a full roof replacement actually looks like.

  • Working with PPB Roofs & Restoration was a smooth process from start to finish. Communication was great the entire time, and they kept us updated throughout the project. The crew was professional, on time, and did an excellent job cleaning up afterward. The roof came out great and I’m very impressed. Definitely a company I would recommend to others.

  • PPB Roof and Restoration were excellent on my roof replacement. They were not high pressure, nor did they try to up-sell on products I didn’t need. Their prices were more than fair. The entire process was easy and very straightforward. They completed our entire roof in one day. David my project manager and AJ the owner were both very helpful and responsive. We are very happy with the results and strongly recommend the company.
    Bert & Diane MolinaMay 2026 · Google
  • Ayden Diaz and Prime Property Builders offered a complimentary inspection of my roof when they were doing some repairs in my neighborhood. They were nice and honest. They did not find much problem with my roof except normal wears and some nail holes. They came back the other day and caulked the holes for free to prevent possible leaking as heavy rains forecasted to come next day! I do appreciate their honest, consideration, and community spirit! I would do business with them in the future.

  • I was approached by several other roofing companies that did not help with my insurance claim. So, when AJ Diaz stopped by, it was difficult to believe that he would be different. However, he was very knowledgeable about the entire insurance process and about roofing products, so I let him start the process. I am very happy that I did. He walked me through every step of the process and kept me informed of where my claim stood and what I needed to do next. He was on-site during the insurance company inspection and helped me find an independent inspector when my claim went to arbitration. He was happy to take the time to answer all my many many questions. Once my claim was finally approved, he helped me select roofing products that were best for my house, had a good quality guarantee, and the color that I wanted. He was able to explain the difference in the products and how they were installed. So, I feel like I made an informed decision. I also had gutters replaced that made everything look so good with the new roof. See the pictures! AJ was also on-site during the installation and came back afterwards to make sure I was happy. I am so happy by the way everything turned out. I highly recommend him and his company.

  • I am highly satisfied with the work completed by this company in the Houston area. From initial consultation through project completion, the entire process was managed with professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail. What distinguished their service was the level of support provided after the installation. The team remained proactive in their follow-up, ensuring that all aspects of the project were functioning properly and that I was fully satisfied with the outcome. I would confidently recommend their services to anyone in Katy or the greater Houston area seeking high-quality roofing solutions and reliable, customer-focused service.

Frequently asked questions

Still have a question?

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

What does a roof tune-up include?
Our Roof Tune-Up covers a 21-point inspection of every major component: shingles, pipe boots, flashing, ridge cap, drip edge, soffits, and all roof penetrations. On-the-spot minor repairs are included in the flat $199 price -- that means re-sealing pipe boots, caulking exposed nail heads, and re-securing loose shingles. You also get a written photo report documenting every checkpoint before we leave.
Does a 20-year-old asphalt shingle roof need to be replaced, or can a tune-up extend its life?
It depends on the condition, not just the age. A 20-year-old roof with localized granule loss and a few failed pipe boots might have several good years left with proper maintenance. A 20-year-old roof with widespread shingle cracking, soft deck spots, or active leaks is likely past the repair window. Our 21-point inspection gives you an honest answer with photos to back it up -- no guess work, no pressure toward replacement if it isn't warranted.
Will homeowners insurance pay for roof tune-up or minor maintenance?
Generally, no. Standard homeowners policies cover sudden storm damage, not routine maintenance or wear-and-tear repairs. A Tune-Up is a maintenance service you pay for out of pocket. However, if our inspection uncovers hail or wind damage you weren't aware of, we can document it thoroughly and help you start a legitimate insurance claim. We guarantee to help get your insurance costs down if qualifying hail or wind damage is verified with storm reports.
How is a roof tune-up different from a standard roof inspection?
A roof inspection documents the condition of your roof but doesn't include repairs. A Tune-Up goes further: we inspect AND make the minor fixes in the same visit. If you're buying a home and need a formal inspection report for escrow or insurance purposes, the roof inspection report is the right service. If you own the home and want preventive maintenance that actually addresses small problems the same day, the Tune-Up is the right call.
How often should I schedule asphalt shingle roof maintenance in Greater Houston?
Once a year is the baseline, and twice a year makes sense if your home sits under large trees or you took a direct hit from a named storm. Houston's UV intensity, summer heat cycling, and hail frequency push roofs harder than most of the country. Annual maintenance catches the slow-developing failures -- cracked pipe boot rubber, lifted flashing, granule loss at the ridge -- before they turn into interior water damage. After Hurricane Beryl or any significant storm, schedule a check regardless of where you are in the annual cycle.
Can a roof tune-up help prevent my roof from failing during hurricane season?
It's one of the best things you can do before season starts. Wind-driven rain exploits every small gap: an unseated shingle, a cracked boot, a flashing joint that's lost its sealant. The Tune-Up closes those entry points before sustained winds arrive. We can't guarantee a roof against a direct Category 3 hit, but we can make sure your roof goes into storm season without the easily preventable weak spots that turn a manageable event into a full interior flood.
