Park Glen Roofing in North Fort Worth: 1990s Roofs and ACC-Approved Shingles

Most of Park Glen's 3,317 homes went up in the 1990s, so many original roofs in this north Fort Worth neighborhood are due for replacement, and every roof replacement here needs Architectural Control Committee approval before work starts. Salter Exteriors Roofing & Remodeling is a Fort Worth-based roofer that inspects, repairs and replaces roofs in all 13 Park Glen villages. Text or call 972-246-7448.

A 1990s neighborhood, now on its second roof cycle

Park Glen Neighborhood Association (PGNA) says the neighborhood of 3,317 homes in 13 villages was developed starting in 1988 by Ross Perot Jr. Tarrant Appraisal District records, as summarized by B4U Buy, put the median build year at 1996: 2,784 homes date from the 1990s, 346 from the 2000s and 173 from the late 1980s, and half were built between 1993 and 1998. That puts many original roofs at 25 to 35 years old, and some have likely been replaced already after storms. Park Glen sits in Fort Worth's Public Improvement District 6, with seven parks, trails and a disc golf area.

13 villages, 19 sets of deed restrictions

Park Glen's deed restrictions were written between 1987 and 1999 while the neighborhood was being built, and PGNA counts 19 different sets across the 13 villages because some villages were built in sections. Start with the Park Glen Property Lookup on parkglen.org, which shows your village and which CCR document applies to your home.

The Phase I declaration, for example, requires a roof slope of at least 5/12 and "lightweight 20-year composition shingles" in charcoal gray or the approximate color of weathered cedar, and it says roof stacks and flashings must be painted to match the roof. Other sets can read differently, so check yours before you choose a shingle.

ACC approval and the approved shingle list

PGNA's list of projects requiring ACC approval includes replacement of roof or shingles, as well as installing or replacing gutters. The community-wide bulletin (B1.15, August 2002) says roofs must be at least a 5/12 slope unless the ACC approves otherwise and covered with 20-year composition or architectural-style shingles in charcoal gray or the approximate color of weathered cedar.

PGNA also publishes an Approved Park Glen Shingle List with colors from Owens Corning, CertainTeed, GAF, Atlas, Elk and Tamko, such as Owens Corning Onyx Black and Driftwood, GAF Charcoal and Weathered Wood, and CertainTeed Georgetown Gray. The list says it is not exhaustive, and you still need to submit a property modification request before replacing shingles, with the brand, style, grade and a product link. We give you all of that in writing so the request is easy to file.

PGNA's roofing material guidelines, amended January 16, 2024 to follow Texas Property Code Section 202.011, say the association will not prohibit shingles designed to resist wind and hail when they resemble and match the neighborhood's shingles and are of equal or better quality. Prior ACC approval is still required. If you are weighing Class 4 impact-resistant shingles, we can price them next to standard architectural shingles.

Park Glen's rules are under review in 2026

Through its Unified Park Glen effort, the PGNA board is drafting one bulletin of architectural standards for all 13 villages. As of the association's November 2, 2026 update, no rule changes had been decided. Homeowners who responded asked for things like metal and hail-resistant roofs and skipping the approval form for like-for-like replacements, and roofing choices are among the items the board can address in the new bulletin. Until a new bulletin is adopted, the current rules apply and exterior changes still need ACC approval.

Storm reports near Park Glen

NOAA's Storm Events Database includes these reports near the neighborhood:

• April 28, 2021: an NWS employee reported tennis ball-size (2.5-inch) hail about 3 miles north-northwest of Park Glen. NOAA's entry for that report lists $40 million in property damage.
• March 2, 2023: an 80 mph wind gust was measured at North Tarrant Parkway and Riverside Drive, about 2.5 miles west-northwest. The same storm damaged new and under-construction homes in North Richland Hills.
• May 27, 2024: hail up to 2 inches was measured just west of Davis Boulevard and North Tarrant Parkway, about 4 miles east-northeast, and half dollar-size hail was reported in North Richland Hills.
• May 25, 2026: 1-inch hail was reported about 3.5 miles southeast.

These reports do not confirm damage on any one street. If your roof was never checked after these storms, an inspection with dated photos is the way to know. See storm and hail damage restoration, hail damage repair in Fort Worth and insurance claim help.
