Roofing Contractor in Hurst, TX

Head 16 miles west of Irving on SH 183, roughly half an hour, and you are in Hurst. Most of it was built from the 1950s to the 1970s. Owners have since added patio covers, sunrooms and family rooms, usually under roofs much flatter than the house. That is what makes Hurst roofing different: the leak we are called about is often at the seam where an addition's low-slope roof ties into the main roof.

Patio Covers and Low-Slope Additions on Hurst Ranch Homes

An addition roof built at a shallow pitch drains slowly, and where it meets the main roof, water has to cross a joint that was often finished with sealant instead of metal. A few summers later the sealant cracks and every hard rain runs in.

The fix is proper flashing and a covering suited to the slope: shingles need enough pitch to shed water, and nearly flat sections need a membrane. Our roof leak repair work starts by finding exactly where water enters, which is not always where the stain appears.

The rest of the house has its own wear. Lots in Hurst's older blocks carry big pecans, oaks and elms planted when the homes were new, and their limbs drop debris onto the low additions, where water already moves slowly. Spring hail rolls across the Mid-Cities most years, and on a nearly flat patio cover a split membrane or cracked panel lets water stand and seep instead of running off. Hail that only bruises a shingle on the main slope can split an aging membrane on the addition outright. Many original attics also have thin soffit intake and a few box vents, so the main roof's south and west slopes wear out faster than the calendar suggests.

Flashing Repair Around North East Mall's Older Neighborhoods

Chimneys, wall joints and vent stacks on 1950s–70s houses have usually been patched many times. We often find layer on layer of sealant over the original metal. Flashing repair replaces that with new step and counter-flashing that does not depend on caulk.

When Does a Roof Near Precinct Line Road Need Full Replacement?

When the leaks are no longer limited to the tie-ins. If shingles are brittle across the main roof, or hail has bruised every slope, a complete roof replacement that redoes the addition tie-in at the same time is the better spend. After spring storms we also handle hail damage roof repair.

Airport Freeway, Pipeline Road and the Harwood Corridor

Hurst sits in the middle of the Hurst-Euless-Bedford area, the HEB of the local school district, and Airport Freeway (SH 183 and SH 121) splits it in two. North East Mall and the retail around it line the freeway near Precinct Line Road, and the city's 1950s–70s housing grew up around the mall site, with the older neighborhoods spreading north and south from there. Hurst Boulevard (SH 10) and Pipeline Road cross the south side, Harwood Road crosses the north, and Tarrant County College's Northeast Campus sits on Harwood. Chisholm Park and smaller neighborhood parks break up the grid with mature trees. Most streets hold single-story brick ranches built between the 1950s and the 1970s, with newer two-stories toward the Colleyville and North Richland Hills lines.

Coming straight out SH 183 from Irving keeps Hurst among our shortest drives, so tell us the nearest cross street and we will plan the visit from there.
