Roof Repair & Replacement in Liberty, TX

Liberty, Texas is the county seat of Liberty County and one of the oldest towns in the state, founded on the banks of the Trinity River. The Sam Houston Regional Library and Research Center sits just north of town. Older homes in a town this old often sit under big shade trees and may have had their roofs replaced more than once.

On an older house, it pays to look past the shingles. Ask the roofer to check the decking for soft spots, the fascia and soffit for rot and the attic for proper ventilation. In a humid river town, a roof that cannot breathe holds moisture, and dark algae streaks and moss show up first on the shady side. If more than one layer of shingles is already on the roof, ask whether the estimate includes a full tear-off.

Typical Liberty calls include leaks around chimneys and old vents, sagging gutters loaded with leaves, limbs dropped on the roof in high wind and roofs simply at the end of their life. Get repair and replacement prices in writing so you can compare them side by side.
