Roofing Contractor in Highland Village, TX

Highland Village homes from the 1980s through the 2000s sit under big oaks and along Lewisville Lake, which means shade, leaf litter and open-water wind all work on the roof. As a roofing contractor for Highland Village, TX, we offer free inspections, repairs, re-roofs and storm documentation from our Irving base.

Highland Village wraps around the western arm of Lewisville Lake, roughly 22 miles north of our Irving base by way of I-35E or FM 2499. Its neighborhoods filled in from the 1980s through the 2000s, and the city kept a lot of its trees doing it. That canopy is the defining feature for roofing here, along with open-water wind on the lakeside streets. Most roofs we see in Highland Village deal with one of those two conditions, sometimes both.

Shade, Leaves and Lake Wind: Reading a Highland Village Roof

On wooded lots, the slow damage comes from moisture. Leaves pile into valleys and behind chimneys, hold water after each rain, and let algae streak the north slopes. Branches that rest on the roof grind granules away in every breeze. On lakeside lots, the threat is sudden instead: gusts across the water get under rake edges and ridge caps. The 1980s homes add age on top of all this, as plenty of them now carry their second or third roof.

From 516 Residents to 15,000: When the Lewisville Lake Neighborhoods Went Up

Highland Village incorporated in February 1963, yet in 1970 it still had only 516 residents. The opening of DFW International Airport helped change that: census counts show 3,246 people in 1980, 7,027 in 1990 and 12,173 in 2000, before growth leveled off at 15,056 in 2010. The roof calendar follows that curve. Late-1970s and 1980s homes are on their second or third roof, 1990s homes are on original or first-replacement roofs nearing the end, and the 2000s streets mostly face storm wear rather than age.

Nearly a square mile of the city's roughly 6.5 square miles is water, so the gap between a sheltered wooded lot and an exposed shoreline lot can be just a few streets.

Do Overhanging Oaks Shorten a Roof's Life?

They can, if nobody manages them. Shade alone is not the problem; trapped moisture, abrasion and falling limbs are. Signs your trees are costing you roof life:

  • dark algae streaks running from the ridge on shaded slopes
  • worn, bare patches where a branch rests on the shingles
  • leaves packed into valleys or around plumbing vents
  • dents or cracked shingles under a heavy limb after a storm

Roof Repair Highland Village Homeowners Ask Us About Most

Valley leaks, scuffed shingles and limb strikes make up much of our work here, along with hail checks after Denton County storms. A focused roof repair handles most of it. When a limb comes through the deck, our fallen tree roof damage service covers tarping and rebuilding the opening. Older roofs with widespread wear move to roof replacement. The cards below match each situation.

What Does an Inspection Look Like on a Wooded Lot?

We schedule a time, drive up from Irving and walk every reachable slope, paying extra attention to valleys, the shaded north side and any spot under a branch. Each issue is photographed and explained in English or Spanish, and you get a written estimate. For storm damage, we prepare documentation for your claim and can be present when the adjuster inspects.

Justin Road, Doubletree Ranch Park and the A-Train Station

FM 407, known locally as Justin Road, runs east-west through the city, and FM 2499 heads south toward Flower Mound, so those are our usual routes in. Doubletree Ranch Park, at 310 Highland Village Road, is a landmark many residents use for directions, and the Highland Village/Lewisville Lake station opened on DCTA's A-train in 2011. Lewisville ISD covers the whole city. Across those neighborhoods, big oaks shade the slopes, fill valleys with leaves and drop limbs in storms, while homes on the lakeside streets trade shade for open-water wind. Typical jobs here are valley cleanouts and repairs under oaks, limb-strike tarping after spring storms, and wind checks on lakeside rakes and ridges. If your street has an HOA, bring its color rules to the inspection.

Roofing in Highland Village, TX: questions we hear

What are the black streaks on my Highland Village roof?

Almost always algae, which grows on shaded, slow-drying slopes under the oaks. It is mainly cosmetic, though heavy growth can hold moisture. Avoid pressure washing, which strips granules. A gentle cleaning helps, and if you are replacing the roof anyway, algae-resistant shingles with copper-treated granules keep the streaks from coming back for years.

Should I trim my trees before a roof replacement in Highland Village?

Yes, ideally. Limbs that touch or hang low over the roof scrape shingles, drop leaves into valleys and give squirrels a ramp. Have an arborist clear branches back several feet before re-roof day; we do not do tree work. Trimming first also keeps falling debris from damaging the new shingles in the weeks after installation.

Do lakeside homes in Highland Village need a different roof?

Not a different type, but more attention to wind. Homes facing open water on Lewisville Lake catch stronger gusts, so we pay close attention to starter strips, the nailing pattern and ridge caps, and recommend shingles with higher wind ratings. We also look harder at exposed rakes and ridges during inspections, since that is where lake wind lifts shingles first.
