Roofers in Windcrest, TX
Roofing in Windcrest, TX comes down to one thing most of the time: storm damage on aging ranch homes. The city’s housing stock is almost entirely single-story brick-veneer houses built in the 1960s and 70s, most still wearing their original composition shingles. Those shallow-pitch roofs get hammered by the hail and high winds that track right along the I-35 corridor every spring. We’re Crestview Roofing, and we work on Windcrest roofs constantly – repairs, full replacements, and new installations. If you’re seeing curled shingles, granule loss, or a fresh leak, call (361) 209-8857 and we’ll get you a written price before any work starts.
Why Windcrest Homes Are Different
Windcrest was built out largely in the 1960s and 1970s, and the roof profiles reflect that era. Most homes have low-pitch roofs – often 3:12 or 4:12 – which changes how water sheds and how shingles wear. A shallow pitch means water moves slower, so any small gap around flashing or a cracked shingle turns into a persistent drip faster than it would on a steeper roof in the Hill Country.
The original 3-tab shingles on many Windcrest homes are now 40 to 55 years old, well past their intended lifespan. You can spot them from the street: curled edges, missing granules, dark patches where the asphalt is exposed. Those shingles have almost no impact resistance left. When a thunderstorm rolls through with golf ball-sized hail – which happens most springs – the damage is often widespread across entire streets. We’ve walked Windcrest neighborhoods after storms where every third house had visible pockmarks on its shingles.
Windcrest also sits in a hail-prone band of South Central Texas. Storms that form west of San Antonio and track along I-35 frequently drop large hail over this exact area. The result is a surge of insurance claims, and homeowners who need a roofer who can document damage clearly – photo evidence, itemized repair lists, and written pricing that holds up with an adjuster.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Windcrest Services
Most Windcrest homeowners call us for one of three things: a repair on a storm-damaged section, a full replacement of an aging roof, or a new installation on a major renovation. Here’s how each one works here.
Roof Repair in Windcrest
Repairs in Windcrest usually mean hail damage, wind-lifted shingles, or flashing failures around chimneys and vents. On the 1960s and 70s ranch homes here, the most common repair is replacing a few damaged or missing shingles before water gets into the decking. We match the existing shingle color as closely as the material allows, and every repair is covered by the 365-Day Done Right Promise – if it fails within a year, we come back and fix it at no charge. Dylan Pace and the crew can typically assess the damage, write up a price, and complete the repair quickly. Read more at Roof Repair in Windcrest.
Roof Replacement in Windcrest
A full replacement on a Windcrest ranch home is a bigger job than it looks from the street. The shallow pitch means the tear-off can be done without heavy staging, but the older homes often have only one layer of shingles that’s been on since construction – and sometimes a second layer was added on top, which we remove entirely before installing the new system. We quote a written, line-item price before any tear-off begins, and you’ll get before-and-after photos so you can see exactly what was done. Replacement is the right call when the shingles are granulating, buckling, or when a storm has damaged more than a third of the roof. See Roof Replacement in Windcrest.
Roof Installation in Windcrest
New installations in Windcrest typically happen when a homeowner is doing a major remodel, adding a room, or building an outbuilding that needs a roof tied into the house’s existing lines. On the low-pitch ranch stock here, the installation has to be carefully integrated with the original roofline and flashed correctly at every transition. We install with manufacturer-backed materials – Owens Corning, IKO, and Atlas are common choices – and every new roof gets the same written price upfront. The crew coordinates with your contractor so the schedule stays clean. Learn more at Roof Installation in Windcrest.

What pushes pricing up in Windcrest? Two things mostly: the size of the roof, and whether the decking underneath has rot from years of slow leaks that were never caught. On the 60s and 70s homes here, decking rot is common around the edges and under valleys. You’ll always know the full number before we start – written, line-item, no surprises.
