Irving roofing contractor for homeowners and rental owners

Two kinds of roof owner in Irving

Irving has 256,492 residents. Only 38.1% of its homes are owner-occupied, per Census ACS 2020-2024 figures. That is the lowest owner share among the cities we serve.

So an Irving roofing company hears from two groups. Some people live under the roof. Others own the house and rent it out.

Both need the same thing: facts they can check. Our photo report works for both. We work on single-family homes, and we do not do commercial roofing.

If you live in the home

You can walk the photos with us on site. We photograph every slope, plus flashing, vents, pipe boots, ridge caps and any soft decking. You keep the report.

If you rent the home out

You may not be there when we inspect. The photo report shows you the roof without a trip to the property. The written quote lists each item, so you can approve it from anywhere.

During a replacement, we photograph the install from start to finish. You see the work your tenant saw, stage by stage.

Irving homes are about 40 years old

The median Irving home was built in 1986. The median home value is $315,600.

A roof on a 1986 house has been replaced at least once. How old the current one is varies from house to house. Records are often thin on a property that has changed hands or tenants.

That is where an inspection helps. It replaces a guess about roof age with photos of roof condition. Our roof inspection page lists what we check.

Repair or replace: a plain rule

One damaged area on an otherwise sound roof calls for a roof repair. Repair estimates are free and in writing.

Wear on every slope calls for a roof replacement quote. If we cannot show photo evidence for an item, it comes off the quote. That rule matters most when you cannot climb up and look yourself.

Irving permit rules for roofing

Irving sets a low threshold for roof permits. The city requires one for roofing work over 1 square. A square is 100 square feet of roof.

The city lists that permit at $100. Almost any job beyond a small patch will cross the line. We pull the permit before work starts.

Irving also requires contractors to register. We have not verified the registration fee on a city source, so we confirm it with the city first.

Compare that with Carrollton next door. There, shingle-only work needs no permit. The rule changes at the city limit.

Dallas County hail, month by month

Irving is in Dallas County. The National Weather Service logged 189 preliminary reports of hail 1 inch or larger there. That covers 2015 through September 2026.

The monthly spread is wider than in counties to the north:

• March: 31 reports
• April: 62 reports
• May: 31 reports
• June: 35 reports
• September: 19 reports

April leads, but June and September both matter. The year also matters. Dallas County logged 48 reports in 2023 and 7 in 2022.

After a storm, we inspect and document damage with photos and measurements. If you file a claim, your insurer decides the outcome. We give you a written, itemized estimate you can share with your insurer.

Our hail and storm damage page has the full steps. No payment is due until materials are delivered and work begins.

What 2% means on an Irving policy

Many North Texas homeowner policies carry a 2% wind and hail deductible. On a $315,600 dwelling limit, 2% is $6,312. Rental property policies can differ, so read your own declarations page.

Texas law requires you to pay your deductible. We give you an invoice and receipt showing it was paid.

If you plan to hold a home for years, price Class 4 shingles too. The price block below shows published ranges for both roof types.

Fences in Irving

Fences wear out on rental and owner homes alike. We repair and replace them.

Irving's code is strict on fence permits:

• Any fence work needs a permit, including repairs.
• A new fence permit is $0.25 a foot, with a $50 minimum.
• Metal posts are required.
• Backyard fences can be up to 8 feet.
• Front-yard fences are limited to 48 inches with 50% visibility.

See our fence page for options and published ranges.
