Newark’s roofing contractor

Newark is a small rural community near the Wise and Tarrant line. Practical roofing, largely metal and asphalt on modest homes.

Newark sits in Wise County, which takes the same spring hail as the rest of North Texas. Most of the roofs we replace around here aren’t worn out from age, they’re worn out from one bad afternoon in May.

We don’t charge to come out. Seth or one of the crew will get on the roof, photograph what’s up there, and tell you plainly whether you have damage worth filing on. Read about how hail damage actually works, look through jobs we have finished, or get in touch.

Decking gets inspected once the old roof is off. Soft or delaminated sheets get replaced rather than shingled over, and we will show you the picture of what we found. Older homes around here frequently have plank decking rather than plywood, which changes how the job goes and is worth knowing about in advance.

Then the details. New pipe boots every time, because the rubber collar on the old one splits from UV in ten to fifteen years here and drips into the ceiling below long before the field of the roof is worn out. Step flashing where the roof meets a wall, properly woven into the courses rather than smeared with sealant. Drip edge at the eaves and rakes. Ridge ventilation sized for the attic.

Then the details.

The part of a roof that decides how long it lasts is almost entirely invisible once the job is finished. That is exactly why it is where corners get cut, and why we photograph it.
