Asphalt Roofing

The Houston workhorse, done right.

Nine of ten roofs we replace across Greater Houston are architectural asphalt shingle — and the difference between a roof that lasts eight years and one that lasts thirty is almost never the shingle. It's the deck prep, the underlayment, the nailing pattern, and the ventilation. We install the complete Owens Corning Duration and TAMKO Heritage systems to spec so the manufacturer warranty actually holds.

Why this roof

The case for asphalt.

Architectural (dimensional) asphalt shingles are the most-installed roof in Houston for good reason: they balance cost, curb appeal, and real wind resistance. We install complete Owens Corning and TAMKO systems — not just the shingle, but the underlayment, ice-and-water barrier, and ventilation that make the warranty count.

    Best value per year of life

    Wind-rated for Gulf storms

    Owens Corning Duration carries a 130-mph wind rating with the patented SureNail strip — critical for hurricane-season squalls and straight-line wind.
