Common Questions
Roofing Questions, Answered
Straight answers about roof replacement, repairs, storm and hail damage, and insurance claims in Baytown and Greater Houston.
Estimates & Cost
Do you offer free roof inspections?
Yes. Every estimate starts with a free, no-obligation inspection. We photograph the roof, document anything we find, and walk you through it before you decide anything. If your roof is fine, we'll be the first to tell you.
How much does a new roof cost in the Houston area?
It depends on the size and pitch of your roof, the materials you choose, and whether any decking needs replacing underneath. Rather than quote a range that may not apply to your home, we inspect first and give you a clear written quote with the scope spelled out — no surprises once work starts.
Do I have to pay for an estimate?
No. Inspections and written estimates are free, and there's no obligation to book work with us afterwards.
How soon can you get out to look at my roof?
Usually within a day or two for a routine inspection, and straight away if it's an emergency — we run emergency service 24/7, including nights and weekends. Call or text 346-309-6715.
Roof Replacement & Repair
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most residential roofs are done in one to two days, weather permitting. Larger homes, steeper pitches, commercial buildings and complex roof lines take longer. We give you a realistic timeline up front rather than an optimistic one.
Should I repair my roof or replace it?
A repair is often the smart call — if the damage is in one area, the rest of the roof has good life left, and it's a single leak, boot or flashing issue. Replacement usually makes more sense when the roof leaks in several places, shingles are widely curling or balding, there's widespread storm or hail damage, or the roof is near the end of its lifespan. We'll tell you honestly which one you're looking at, including when a repair is only buying time.
What's included in a Now Roofing roof?
A complete roofing system, not the bare minimum. Upgraded ventilation and new roof accessories — painted to match for a clean finish — are included at no extra cost, because we think upgrades that should be standard shouldn't be an upsell. Every roof is backed by our workmanship warranty.
Do you work on commercial buildings?
Yes. Alongside residential re-roofs we install and repair flat and low-slope commercial systems — TPO, modified bitumen and built-up roofing — for businesses and property managers across Greater Houston, planned around your hours to keep downtime down.
Will you clean up afterwards?
Yes. Every job ends with a thorough cleanup and a walkthrough together, so you know exactly what was completed and your property is left ready to use.
Storm Damage & Insurance
Do you help with insurance claims for storm or hail damage?
Yes — storm and hail claims are one of our specialties. We inspect the roof, document the damage with photos and detailed notes, and work directly with your adjuster so the claim reflects the real condition of your roof. You focus on your family; we handle the roofing side.
How do I know if my roof has storm damage?
Common signs are missing or lifted shingles, dented vents, gutters or flashing, granules collecting in your downspouts, and water stains on ceilings or walls. Hail and wind damage often isn't visible from the ground, so after a major storm it's worth a free inspection before it turns into a leak.
Should I file a claim before or after an inspection?
Get the inspection first. There's no sense filing a claim if there isn't legitimate damage — and if there is, our photo documentation helps you file accurately. We'll walk you through what we find and help you decide the right next step.
Will you meet with my insurance adjuster?
Yes. We'll be there to meet your adjuster, point out the damage we've documented, and make sure nothing legitimate gets overlooked. Having a roofer who knows the roof present is one of the biggest advantages you can have in a claim.
