Roof replacement begins with an inspection and photos, followed by a written scope and price.
For roof replacement in College Station and 4 towns across Brazos, Grimes, Milam and Lee counties, Roofers Hotline takes one call at (855) 512-1072. The line is answered around the clock, and you get a written estimate before work starts.
The Storm Prediction Center has logged 73 hail reports within 15 km of the city center since 2000, a high band for storm inspection.
Replacement starts with the old shingles coming off down to the deck, and the debris leaving your property. The median home here was built in 1998, so many roofs here are on a second layer or are close to it. Ask for the tear-off to be listed on your written estimate.
Once the old roof is off, the deck is checked board by board, and soft or damaged sections are replaced before anything new goes down. Brazos County logged 76 hail events of one inch or larger since 2015, so impact damage can hide under shingles. Ask how decking is priced per sheet.
These layers sit under the shingles and carry water off the roof edge. Ice dams are a low risk here, but the metro gets 41.8 inches of precipitation a year in the 1991 to 2020 climate normals, so the underlayment does steady work. Ask which products the written estimate lists, then call to book.
You choose shingles, metal or tile, and the roof is fastened to the manufacturer's rating. Hail reports within 15 kilometers of the metro put it in the High band among the towns Roofers Hotline serves, and the largest hail in the county record was 3 inches. Ask about impact-rated options when you call.

College Station's median home was built in 1998, and 19% of homes here predate 1980 (ACS 2019-2023), so many roofs are on their first or second set of shingles. Roof replacement here starts with the tear-off of the old layers and disposal, then a decking inspection with replacement where the boards are soft. New underlayment, drip edge and shingles, metal or tile go on with manufacturer-rated fasteners. Call 24 hours a day to book a written estimate before any work starts.
The housing numbers here differ from the county's. College Station's median home is from 1998, two years newer than the county median of 1996, and 19% of homes predate 1980 against 24% county-wide. Owner-occupancy is 35.9%, below the county's 46.8%, and the single-family-detached share is 42.1%, below the county's 50.5%. Newer roofs mean many replacements here come from storm damage rather than simple age. The median home is worth $326,500 against $279,700 for the county.

With hail the main storm type here, two signs stand out. Shingles past 20 to 25 years with widespread granule loss often point to hail bruising on top of age, and the county's largest hail on record was 3 inches. Repairs every season on different sections suggest the damage is spread across the roof. Check the gutters for loose granules after a storm, and look at the deck lines from the street for sagging.
