Get matched with top roofing installation & roof repairers in Shiner, TX

"Very easy - called in, explained need, met with person to assess roof and estimate repair costs, scheduled appointment, crew showed up as scheduled and took care of the problem. They get extra points for telling me I should also have a qualified stone mason look at my chimney as it was showing signs of age and the mortar was missing in places."

"Fantastic- Brent had his crew there on time and worked quickly & professionally. They cleaned up after the job & I would use tradition roofing again. I would & have recommend Brent. He is the best."

"The project supervisor, Cash, walked me through the expectations of costs and was very thorough in ensuring my job was completed in a timely fashion. Very professional and high-quality work. 10/10 recommend Stephens Roofing and Remodeling - ask for Cash!"

"To begin with, I contacted 4 different roofing companies (all highly rated on Angie's List). One of these used a satellite system for estimating the roof area (measured in and quot;squaresand quot;, 1 square = 100 sq ft.) Three of the four area estimates - including the one that used the satellite system - quoted roof areas that were much higher than the fourth. So I took the satellite image - which had linear dimensions on it, and added a factor for the roof pitch (basic trigonometry) and what I found was that the fourth estimate, which happened to come from Bruce Bethke, was nearly right-on. <br /> I have no idea what was up with the other three roofers' estimates (bad at math?), but they all enjoy great reputations on Angie's List... <br /> Bruce suggested that I think about a metal roof and offered me a and quot;screw-downand quot; option (where the fastening screws pass through the metal surface before anchoring in the plywood decking below) and a and quot;standing seamand quot; option (where the metal roof panels are clipped into hidden fasteners leaving the metal surface undisturbed.) NOTE: This second type of roof is referred to as and quot;standing seamand quot;, but it consists of panels with pre-fabricated seams that lock together as opposed to a and quot;trueand quot; standing seam roof which is installed with a power crimper that creates the seams onsite by bending the flat panels together. The original and quot;standing seamand quot; roof is significantly more expensive. While there may be a marginal benefit to the power-crimped roof, the pre-fabricated panels have a good track record. <br /> The more I learned about modern metal roofs, the more I wanted to go that route. They have 2 major benefits: (1) energy efficiency, and (2) durability. <br /> The metal roof (including colored metal roofs) are much more reflective of the sun's radiant energy, so they don't get as hot as asphalt roofs of any color. Furthermore, a metal roof has barely any heat capacity at all; when the sun goes down it has no stored heat to give off, whereas an asphalt roof heats to well over a hundred degrees fahrenheit, and cools down slowly - in the process radiating heat off to the atmosphere - and into the house! Since replacing my roof I have noted that the heat pump barely ever runs between 7 or 8 pm and 10 or 11 am, whereas with the asphalt roof the heat pump ran long and often throughout the entire night and morning. Because the metal roof saves so much energy it has earned an energy tax credit for the year it gets installed. <br /> The roof is also more durable - so much so that it meets a U.L. standard for resistance to wind and hail damage - which earns a discounted rate for homeowner's insurance in the state of Texas. <br /> Lastly, the roof looks great. Neighbors actually comment on it, and several have said they'd like to and quot;go metaland quot; when the time comes to replace their asphalt roofs. <br /> Once I decided to go with a metal roof, I ran the two options by a home inspector who urged me to go with the standing seam rather than the screw-down option. He said that even though it costs more initially, the additional cost is more than made up by the fact that the standing seam roof does not require screws to be inspected and replaced periodically. And the possibility of leaks is drastically reduced because there should be very few if any penetrations through the metal surface of a standing seam roof when installed properly. <br /> Back to Bethke Roofing. Bruce Bethke earned my trust with his straightforward estimate, his suggesting the metal roof, and giving me the full facts up front. He's a pretty easy-going guy besides, and I found dealing with Bruce - and his crew to be a very good experience. During the job Bruce suggested replacing the stack roof vent with louver vents on the sheer face of the adjoining wall (parts of the roof are single-slope adjoining a sheer wall face). That was done at a minimal additional cost. His suggestion improved the aesthetics of the roof, eliminated a potential water leak, and improved the attic ventilation. He even gave me some advice on a non-roof drainage issue I had - and his suggestion has proven completely effective, and much easier to accomplish than what I had originally planned. <br /> I heartily recommend Bethke roofing to anyone who needs a roof!"

"Our "only" negative comment about Ground Zero Shelters is that they do not come to a persons residence to give the sales pitch and demonstration. You must go to their showroom or see their product at a home show. This being said, we were extremely happy with the sales experience, reminders and installation of our shelter. They called about 10 days prior to the installation for a reminder, their installers called the day before and the morning of the installation to remind us that they would be at our home at the designated time. They showed up as promised and were completed with the installation in less than 1 1/2 hours time! Thank you Ground Zero!"

"He gave me some good advice to help me avoid jumping into something unnecessarily. I appreciated his integrity and professionalism. He gave me some good references for other non-roofing service providers that I might need and said that I could call him with any further roofing questions."

"This company was very easy to work with and they did an excellent job matching the old shingle roof to the new one. It looked like it had always been there. They used one of the best quality products. There was a storm coming and they were still trying to cover the roof with the tar paper. This was a very trusting company."

"Excellent... work was both professionally, efficiently and well done on 12/7/20. Recently when a issue arose... their response was quick and a solution is to be scheduled."

"I really can’t say enough good things about Baird Foundation. They are top notch. Very professional and always listen to my concerns. The system they use is good quality. Don’t look any where else for foundation repair."

"They ordered all the necessary material for the roof an all trim. They came the days they scheduled. They did great work and cleaned up after themselves. They hauled away all the trash themselves instead of filling our trash can. The roof looked fantastic, but had 1 small leak around a vent pipe. They responded to the first phone call about the leak immediately and fixed it quickly and completely."
