Fort Worth homes and roofs

According to the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey (2020–2024 5-year estimates, via Census Reporter), the median home in Fort Worth was built in 1994, the median owner-occupied home value is $303,000, and about 57% of the 342,126 occupied homes are owner-occupied.

Fort Worth is two cities when it comes to roofs. West and southwest neighborhoods like Ridglea, Westcliff, Wedgwood and Tanglewood are mostly brick ranches from the 1950s to 1970s, often with low-slope sections and mature trees over the roof. North Fort Worth around Alliance and Heritage is 2000s and newer, with bigger roofs, more valleys and builder-grade shingles. West-side lots with big pecans and live oaks drop limbs onto roofs in wind and keep valleys full of leaves, while north Fort Worth's open subdivisions take wind-driven hail straight on.

When does a Fort Worth roof need replacing instead of repairing?

When hail or wind damage runs across whole slopes, when the shingles are brittle and losing granules, or when leaks keep coming back. A home built in 1994 is about 32 years old; if it still has its original shingles, they are past the typical life of a standard asphalt roof in Texas heat. If damage is isolated, a roof repair may be all you need, and we will tell you so.

Roof Replacement questions from Fort Worth homeowners

How long does a roof replacement take in Fort Worth?

Most single-family homes are torn off and re-roofed in one to two days, weather permitting. Large, steep or complex roofs can take longer, and we tell you the timeline in your estimate.

My Fort Worth home was built around 1994. Do I need a new roof?

Not automatically. A roof that old may have been replaced already. We inspect for free and tell you honestly whether your current roof has life left or needs replacing.

Will insurance pay for a new roof after the April 28, 2021 storm?

If that storm or another one caused covered damage to your Fort Worth roof, many policies pay for replacement minus your deductible. We inspect for free and give you dated photos so you can decide whether to file.

Are Class 4 shingles worth it in Fort Worth?

NOAA storm reports include 3-inch hail in north Fort Worth near Saginaw on April 28, 2021. Class 4 shingles hold up better to hail. The Texas Department of Insurance says impact-resistant roofing can qualify for a premium discount, with Class 4 earning the highest credit, but each insurer sets its own amount, so ask yours. We price both so you can compare.

Do west Fort Worth ranch homes with low-slope sections need a different roof?

Often, yes. Shingles are not made for very low-slope sections such as flat porch or patio roofs, which need a low-slope membrane instead. Many 1950s to 1970s ranches in Ridglea, Westcliff and Wedgwood have one, so we check the pitch of every section before we quote.
