Roofers in The Timbers, Murphy, TX

If somebody's already knocked, you've only their word for it. Our roofers work this county the rest of the year too.
The Timbers roofs, on the south side of Murphy
After a big storm the trucks show up. Some of them belong to roofers who work this county every week of the year, and some belong to crews that followed the weather in and will follow it back out again.
None of that tells you much about your own roof, which is the part worth pinning down. Usually it's asphalt shingle roofing work: strike marks, a lifted ridge cap, granule loss that's been building longer than you'd think. Where a house has a low-slope run over a porch or an addition, that's flat roof repair, and it gets checked differently from the main slopes. Either way the start is the same: a local roofer gets up there and puts eyes on the roof itself, then writes down what's there.
What The Timbers homeowners call about
Some of it is storm work and some of it is just a roof getting on with being a roof. Either way the first step doesn't change.
Why the first knock on your door isn't always the right call
There's nothing wrong with answering the door. It's worth knowing what you're weighing up first, though, before anyone gets on a ladder.
Still here after the trucks have gone
Our roofers work this county year-round, so whoever answers about the workmanship later is the one whose hands were on it.
The pattern behind the knocks
Collin County recorded 24 separate hail days across its four-year window, so a roof that came through the first one clean isn't necessarily still clean by the fourth.
A through-road brings traffic
FM 544 carries plenty of passing traffic along this side of town, which means more knocks at the door, and no more reason to trust the first one.
Questions The Timbers homeowners ask about roofs

Have a roof in The Timbers checked
Storms move on, and so do the crews that follow them. The roofer who looks at your roof in The Timbers is working this county the rest of the year too, which is the part that matters six months from now.
