Professional Merkel Roofing Contractor. GAF Certified

Replacing your roof isn't just about shingles. We install ice and water shield in the valleys and along eaves, synthetic underlayment across the whole deck, new drip edge on rake and eave, starter strip, and ridge vent. That's how a roof lasts 30 years in Texas.

Step flashing at chimney walls is the number one leak source we see in Merkel. Improper step flashing causes roof leaks. It's that simple. We install new step flashing with a chimney cricket for proper water diversion, sealed with Geocel tripolymer sealant. Fix it once, fix it right.

Hail, wind, fallen branches. Texas storms do real damage to roofs. We respond within 24 hours, tarp exposed areas to prevent further damage, and start your insurance claim with a detailed inspection report.

A new roof installation starts with getting the specs right. Roof pitch determines your material options. Attic space determines ventilation needs. Local code determines underlayment requirements. We handle all of that before the first shingle goes on.

We install 24-gauge and 26-gauge standing seam in Galvalume and pre-painted steel. Concealed fastener system means nothing's exposed to weather. Panels lock together at the seam and clip to the roof deck.

Your shingle choice determines your warranty, your curb appeal, and how your roof handles Texas weather. We'll show you samples, explain the differences, and let you pick what fits your budget. No pressure.

Modified bitumen is our go-to for residential flat roofs in Merkel. Two-ply torch-applied system with a granulated cap sheet. It handles foot traffic, thermal cycling, and Texas UV better than single-ply at the residential scale.

Flat roofs on commercial buildings are a different animal. We install and repair TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, and built-up systems. Our Merkel commercial crew handles retail, warehouse, office, and multi-family buildings.

Half-round copper gutters with round downspouts. That's the premium install. We solder joints on-site using 50/50 tin-lead solder. Copper develops a natural patina in Texas's climate within 5-7 years. For aluminum, we use Spectra Metals .027 gauge seamless with Raytec hidden hangers rated to hold 25 lbs per linear foot of ice and debris load.

Free roof inspections for Merkel homeowners. No catch, no obligation. We inspect your roof, hand you the report, and let you decide what to do next. If you need work, we'll quote it. If you don't, we'll say so.

After we tarp and secure your roof, we document everything for insurance purposes. Photos, measurements, damage descriptions. Your adjuster gets a professional report, not a handwritten note.

Skylight replacement is often better than repair on units over 15 years old. VELUX FCM curb-mount replacement skylights install on the existing curb frame. No structural modification needed. Low-E laminated glass with argon fill for energy efficiency. Solar-powered blinds available for light control. VELUX No Leak guarantee when installed with the complete flashing system. Your Merkel home gets more light, better insulation, and a proper warranty.
