Roofing Contractor in Kaufman, TX

Hail, storm and housing conditions in Kaufman, TX

Kaufman sits in the Kaufman County hail track east of Dallas, and storms that cross the metroplex often still have large hail by the time they arrive. Wind and hail together are the pattern, and the open country around town means little shelter for exposed roofs.

Kaufman is a mix of older 1950s through 1980s homes near the downtown square and courthouse, with newer subdivisions and rural homes on acreage outside town. Roof shapes range from simple gables to more complex new construction.

We serve Kaufman and the surrounding county, including the downtown square area, the neighborhoods off US 175, and the roads toward Kemp, Mabank, Scurry, and Poetry.

Kaufman requires a permit for roofing work, and HOA rules apply mainly in newer subdivisions. Rural properties outside the city limits fall under county rules instead.

On a Kaufman roof we check five things in order: the deck, the underlayment, the flashings, the ventilation, and the shingles. Deck condition decides whether a repair is even possible. Underlayment decides whether a small shingle failure becomes a ceiling stain. Flashings decide whether the roof leaks at walls and chimneys. Ventilation decides how long the new shingles last. The shingle field itself is usually the most visible issue and the least diagnostic. We photograph each stage as we go, so when we recommend a repair instead of a replacement — or the other way around — you can see the reason rather than taking our word for it.
