Dylan Pace leads our Austin team, and he’s built the company around a simple idea: you should know exactly what a roof costs, who’s showing up, and what was done. No four-hour windows. No quote that changes at the door. No silence after the check clears. Austin’s hailstorms, cedar pollen, and triple-digit summers don’t wait, and neither do our answers.

Roof Replacement Contractor

A Roof Replacement Contractor is the licensed professional who tears off your old roof down to the decking and installs a brand-new system from underlayment to ridge cap. You need one when your roof is past patching: granule loss in the gutters, daylight showing through the attic, or shingles curling across entire slopes. Crestview Roofing Co Austin handles full replacements in Austin using manufacturer-backed materials from GAF, CertainTeed, and Tamko. A standard architectural shingle replacement on a 2,000-square-foot Austin home usually lands between $11,000 and $18,000.

Tear-Off vs. Overlay

We almost always recommend a full tear-off in Austin. The city’s intense UV exposure and clay-heavy heat break down old shingles unevenly, and layering new shingles over compromised ones shortens the roof’s life by years. A tear-off also lets us inspect the decking for rot from cedar-adjacent humidity pockets like Lost Creek and Shady Hollow.

Permits and Inspections

Our team pulls permits where Austin code requires them and schedules the final inspection so you don’t chase paperwork. The written price we give you includes permit costs; the number on the page is the number on the invoice.

Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement

Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement is the most common re-roof in Austin, where dimensional shingles handle hail, wind, and brutal sun better than almost any budget-friendly material. You should consider it when more than a third of your shingles show cracking, lifting, or missing granules. Crestview Roofing Co Austin typically installs architectural asphalt systems for between $9,500 and $16,500 on average Austin homes, and we document every layer with photos before it gets covered.

Architectural vs. Three-Tab

Architectural shingles cost more upfront but last 30 to 50 years and resist Austin hail far better than three-tab, which often fails at 15 to 20 years. We install architectural almost exclusively because the price difference shrinks fast when you factor in a second replacement a decade earlier.

Ventilation and Intake

Austin attics hit 140°F in August, and a shingle replacement without proper ridge and soffit ventilation will bake from underneath. We check your intake and exhaust balance during every estimate, because shingle warranties from GAF and CertainTeed both require adequate ventilation to stay valid.

New Roof Installation

New Roof Installation means roofing a structure that has never had shingles, or rebuilding from bare decking after a full removal. In Austin, this comes up for new ADUs, patio covers, or homes where a previous owner let water eat the decking. Crestview Roofing Co Austin prices new roof installation based on square footage, deck condition, and pitch, with most Austin projects running $10,000 to $22,000. The written quote includes all materials, labor, permits, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise.

Decking and Structural Repairs

We never paper over rot. If we find soft decking during a tear-off, we show you photos before replacing it and add the cost to a written change order for your approval. No surprise line item at the end.

Underlayment and Ice & Water Shield

Even in a dry climate, Austin gets enough wind-driven rain that we install full synthetic underlayment and ice-and-water shield in valleys and around penetrations. Flashing, the metal strips that seal joints around chimneys and vents, gets replaced on every single job, not reused.

Reroofing

Reroofing is the broader trade term for removing and replacing an existing roof system, whether it’s shingles, tile, or metal over a wooden deck. You’re a reroofing candidate when your current roof is at or past its expected service life, or when a storm has damaged more than a third of the surface. Crestview Roofing Co Austin handles reroofing across Austin with written pricing that starts around $9,500 for a modest single-story and goes up based on pitch, height, and material. Same crew, same standards, same photo documentation from first tear to final walk-through.

When Patching Stops Making Sense

If you’ve had three or more repairs in two years, reroofing costs less per year going forward than playing whack-a-mole with leaks. Homeowners in Wells Branch and Manor often find hail damage spreads farther than the obvious spots, and a full reroof is the only way to guarantee a uniform, warrantied surface.

Coordinating with Insurance

We don’t deal with insurance adjusters, but we do provide detailed written estimates and photo documentation that make filing a claim straightforward. You get a clear line-item breakdown that shows the full scope of the reroofing, which is exactly what most Austin insurers ask for.

Flat Roof Replacement

Flat Roof Replacement covers low-slope and flat roof systems like TPO, modified bitumen, and built-up roofing that can’t shed water like a pitched shingle roof. Austin mid-century homes, commercial strips along Burnet Road, and modern builds in East Austin all lean on flat sections. Crestview Roofing Co Austin replaces flat roofs for between $8 and $14 per square foot installed, with full tear-off and new insulation where code requires it.

TPO vs. Modified Bitumen

TPO is a single-ply membrane that reflects Austin heat well and costs less to install, while modified bitumen offers more puncture resistance for roofs with a lot of foot traffic. We walk every flat roof before quoting, because the substrate condition, not the membrane brand, drives most of the cost.

Drainage and Ponding

A flat roof that holds water after 48 hours is failing, even if the membrane looks fine. We check for ponding patterns during every flat roof replacement and will level low spots or add tapered insulation so water moves toward drains. Boral and Tamko both make commercial-grade flat roof products we install and stand behind.

Brands We Service

We work with GAF shingles more than any other brand in Austin, and we’ve installed their Timberline and Grand Canyon lines on hundreds of homes across the city. GAF’s limited wind warranties matter here because spring thunderstorms east of I-35 hit roofs hard in Elgin and Hornsby Bend before they ever reach us.

CertainTeed is our go-to when homeowners want warranty length and a distinct look, particularly their Landmark and NorthGate architectural lines. We also install Tamko for budget-conscious replacements where the homeowner wants a solid 30-year shingle without the premium price. Whether you have GAF, CertainTeed, Tamko, or any other make, we can handle the replacement from tear-off to final invoice.

Signs You Need a Pro Right Now

• Granules in your gutters or at downspout exits. Shingle granules protect the asphalt from UV. When they wash off in volume, your roof is losing its armor and the clock is running. Austin’s sun accelerates this once it starts.
• Daylight visible through attic boards. If you can see outside from your attic without opening a vent, water has a clear path in. This is structural, not cosmetic, and it gets worse with every storm.
• Shingles lifting or curling across entire slopes. A few curled shingles after a storm is one thing. Entire southern or western slopes lifting means the adhesive strip has failed and the next wind event is tearing them off.
• Water stains on ceilings or along exterior walls. Stains mean the leak has already penetrated the decking and insulation. What you see on the ceiling is the last stop, not the first; the actual breach could be ten feet higher on the roof.
• Your roof is past its service life and you’re still patching. Three-tab roofs older than 20 years and architectural roofs older than 35 are living on borrowed time in Austin’s climate. A replacement is cheaper than a wet ceiling and rotted framing.

Our Process, Step by Step

1. 1
   Written estimate, in your hand before you decide. We inspect the roof, measure precisely, and give you a line-item price on the spot. That price is fixed: the number on the page is the number on the invoice.
2. 2
   Scheduled arrival with a live link. The day of the job, you’ll get a trackable arrival time through our Relay Home Co. dispatch system, so you can see exactly when the truck pulls up. No four-hour windows.
3. 3
   Protected tear-off and deck inspection. We tarp your landscaping, strip the old roof, and photograph the bare decking before anything new goes down. If there’s rot or soft wood, we show you the photos and get written approval before any repair.
4. 4
   Installation with photo documentation. Underlayment, ice-and-water shield, new flashing, shingles, ridge vent: we install each layer and photograph it before the next one covers it. You get the full photo record by text or email before you pay.
5. 5
   Cleanup, final walk, and your written warranty. We run a magnetic sweep for nails, walk the roof with you or show final photos, and hand you the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. Your digital invoice arrives by text, itemized and matching the original quote.
