Fast, Reliable Roof Replacement Across Kirby
A standard architectural shingle roof replacement in Kirby runs $11,500 to $18,400 on a typical 1,800 to 2,400 square foot single-family home. That’s the honest range we quote before any work starts, and it’s the number on your invoice when the job’s done. We know the homes here because we work on them every week: 1950s ranches off Ackerman Road, 1970s split-levels near Binz-Engleman, and the newer builds along Seguin Road. Call (361) 209-8857 and we’ll give you a written price, a real arrival time you can track, and before-and-after photos of your roof.

Why Crestview Roofing Co San Antonio Is Kirby’s Preferred Roof Replacement Company
Our Roof Replacement crews work in Kirby constantly, which means we know what’s underneath these roofs before we ever pull a shingle. The housing stock here is predominantly single-family, built between the 1950s and 1980s, and a lot of those original 3-tab shingles are hitting the end of their 25 to 30 year life right now. When we open them up, we regularly find the same things: rotted decking at the valleys, no ice and water shield at the eaves, and low-slope sections that have been ponding water for years.
Dylan Pace runs our operation here, and he built the Kirby service area around one idea: homeowners should see exactly who’s coming, when they’ll arrive, and what the job costs before it starts. That’s the Relay Visibility Guarantee. You get a written price before any work begins, a live trackable arrival time, photo documentation before and after, and a digital invoice sent by text. No four-hour windows. No door-knock surprises.
Every replacement is covered by the 365-Day Done Right Promise. If something fails within a year, we return and correct it at no charge. That’s in writing, included with every job. Kirby homeowners use their roofs hard: hot summers, spring hailstorms, and wind gusts off the Balcones Escarpment. A one-year written guarantee matters here.
We also answer calls live, 24/7. Not a voicemail loop. A person picks up. If you call at 9 p.m. on a Sunday after a storm rolled through, you’ll get a real human who can schedule your free estimate and flag what to watch for overnight.

New Roof Installation in Kirby
New Roof Installation in Kirby typically means a full tear-off and replacement on a home where the existing roof has reached the end of its service life, usually 25 to 30 years for the 3-tab shingles so common here. The job includes removing all old layers down to the decking, replacing any rotted or damaged sheathing, installing new underlayment, flashing, shingles, and ventilation, and pulling the required permit. A complete new roof on a standard Kirby ranch runs $11,500 to $18,400 depending on square footage, pitch, and whether we’re adding insulation or crickets to fix drainage.
What Gets Replaced
Everything that touches water gets replaced, not just the shingles. New drip edge at the eaves and rakes. New flashing at chimneys, vent pipes, and valleys. New pipe boots and ridge vent. We don’t leave old metal in place to save a few hundred dollars because that’s where leaks start within a year. On Kirby homes especially, the valleys take a beating during spring storms, so we always replace the valley metal and add ice and water shield underneath.
When Permits Trigger Code Upgrades
A permit on a Kirby home means an inspector checks the nailing pattern and underlayment. That’s the point, not a hassle. If your home has old decking that doesn’t meet current wind-load standards, we’ll flag it before the permit is filed, not after the inspector fails you. The price we write includes those upgrades. You know before we start, not after the wall is open.
Reroofing in Kirby
Reroofing in Kirby almost always means a complete tear-off of at least one layer, and frequently two, on homes built between 1950 and 1985. On a 1970s ranch near Ackerman Road, we opened the roof to find rotted decking under two valleys and no ice and water shield at the eaves. Our techs replaced the decking in six sheets, installed CertainTeed ice and water shield, then laid Atlas architectural shingles with a new ridge vent. All before the next thunderstorm. The customer saw photos of the old decking the day it was opened, and a written change order before we replaced a single sheet.
Why We Don’t Just Nail Over Old Shingles
Nailing new shingles over old ones hides failing decking and voids the new shingle warranty. Every manufacturer’s warranty assumes a clean deck and proper underlayment. If a Kirby home has two layers of old shingles, we’re tearing both off, inspecting every sheet of plywood or OSB, and replacing anything with soft spots or delamination. The price includes that work if we flag it during the estimate. Most Kirby homes with original roofing have at least a few sheets that need replacement.

Low-Slope Sections on Older Kirby Homes
Many Kirby homes have low-slope or flat roof sections over carports, patios, or additions. These ponds water after the spring hailstorms, and that water sits against the shingles for days. Swapping shingles alone doesn’t fix the ponding. Our reroofing bids almost always include adding tapered insulation or crickets to give the water somewhere to go. Skipping that step means leaks within a year, even with brand-new shingles on top.
Trusted Brands We Service in Kirby
We install and repair roofs using manufacturer-backed materials from Owens Corning, IKO, and Atlas, and we match the brand to the home and the homeowner’s priorities. For wind resistance on Kirby’s open lots, Atlas StormMaster or IKO Dynasty hold up well. For color matching on 1960s brick homes, Owens Corning Duration offers shades that work with older siding and soffit colors. We keep common accessories stocked locally for Kirby jobs: ridge vent, ice and water shield, pipe boots, and valley metal. That means fewer supply runs and a faster install. Material quality is never a question when the name on the wrapper is one you’d find on a manufacturer’s list of approved contractors.

AfterCommon Roof Replacement Problems We See in Kirby Homes
- Rotted valley decking on 1950s and 1960s ranches. Kirby’s older homes often have valleys where water channels from two roof planes. Decades of runoff without proper underlayment rots the plywood underneath. We replace the decking and add ice and water shield in the valley before new shingles.
- Ponding on low-slope sections. Many Kirby homes, especially the 1970s and 1980s builds, have low-slope sections over additions, carports, or covered patios. Spring hailstorms dump fast rain, the water pools, and shingles fail from the bottom up. Tapered insulation or crickets fix the cause, not just the symptom.
- Wind-damaged shingles from spring storms. Kirby sits in a hail belt that runs north of San Antonio. Granule loss and lifted shingles are common after April and May storms. Insurance adjusters know the area, and our crews coordinate with them so the claim process doesn’t stall the repair.
- Original 3-tab shingles past their lifespan. Homes built in the 1970s and 1980s often still carry their original 3-tab shingles. Those shingles were rated for 20 to 25 years, and they’re now approaching or past 30. A full replacement now costs less than a failed roof after the next hail event.
Pricing for Roof Replacement in Kirby, TX
A full tear-off and re-roof on a Kirby home runs $11,500 to $18,400. New construction or homes with complex rooflines can push higher; a simple one-story ranch with a single gable comes in at the lower end.

The estimate we write includes all of it. No change orders hiding behind “unexpected conditions” after we start. We inspect the decking before we quote, and if we flag something during tear-off, you approve the price in writing before we touch it. Call (361) 209-8857 for a free estimate on your Kirby roof.

FAQs About Roof Replacement in Kirby
Because so many Kirby homes were built between 1950 and 1985 with shingle roofs installed directly over plywood or OSB, and decades of valley runoff, hailstorm cycles, and humid summers have rotted the sheathing in the valleys and around penetrations. We inspect the decking during the estimate, and if we find soft spots, the written quote includes the replacement. Most Kirby reroofs need at least four to six sheets of decking replaced. Call (361) 209-8857 to schedule a free inspection.
We do two things: tear off the old shingles down to the decking, and add tapered insulation or crickets to the low-slope area so water drains instead of pooling. Swapping shingles alone would leave the ponding problem untouched, and the new shingles would fail within a year or two at those sections. Our bids include the drainage fix as a line item, not a surprise add-on. If your Kirby home has a flat or low-slope section over a carport or patio, ask us to map it during the estimate. Call (361) 209-8857 for a free quote.
Yes, Kirby requires a permit for a roof replacement. On an older Kirby home, the permit inspection can trigger code upgrades: current wind-load nailing patterns, proper underlayment, and sometimes improved ventilation. That’s not a bad thing. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and factor the required upgrades into your written price before work starts. You won’t find out about an extra few thousand dollars after the shingles are off. Call (361) 209-8857 and we’ll walk you through what a permit means for your specific home.
Yes. We work with Owens Corning, IKO, and Atlas, all of which carry architectural shingle lines with color profiles that complement older brick and siding common on 1960s Kirby homes. During the estimate we’ll bring physical shingle samples and hold them against your brick and soffit so you can see the match in daylight. We don’t pick colors from a website screenshot. Call (361) 209-8857 to schedule a free estimate and color consultation.
The right way is to tear off the old valley metal, replace any rotted decking underneath, install ice and water shield the full width of the valley, and lay new metal or woven shingles according to manufacturer specs. The steep gable and the low-slope addition put very different stresses on the valley, so we treat each one separately. On Kirby homes with steep gables over the main house and a flat addition on the back, the valley is the first thing to leak. We don’t patch valleys; we rebuild them. Call (361) 209-8857 for a free valley inspection as part of your roof estimate.
