Roof Replacement in Kerrville, TX – Free Estimates Available
Time for a Roof Replacement? Here's How We Help
Total Foundation & Roofing replaces roofs in Kerrville, Texas and across Kerr County — including Ingram, Center Point, Hunt, Mountain Home and Harper, and east along TX-27 into Comfort. We work in asphalt shingle, metal, tile and low-slope systems on both homes and commercial buildings, from our office at 317 Sidney Baker Street.
Most roofs in this part of the Hill Country come to the end of their life through sun rather than storms. Long summers of direct UV strip granules and make sealant and flashing brittle, and a roof that has been patched three times in five years is usually telling you something. Hail is the other route, and it is faster — one event can end a roof that had years left.
We are a licensed and insured roofing contractor based in Kerrville, and we do full-service roofing for residential and commercial property. If a repair will still do the job, we will tell you that rather than sell you a replacement.

Our Services
We take a customized approach to every property, beginning with a detailed inspection.
Types of Roofs We Replace
We replace every common roofing system used in the Hill Country:
- Asphalt shingle. The most common choice and the most economical. Asphalt shingles come in a wide colour range, and impact-resistant Class 4 versions are worth the upgrade in a hail market.
- Metal. Standing seam and exposed fastener systems. Metal roofs last 40 to 50 years and reflect heat rather than absorbing it, which matters through a Kerr County summer.
- Tile and slate. Long-lived and heavy. Both can pass 75 years, and both need the framing checked before replacement because the load is not the same as shingle.
- Flat and low-slope. TPO and modified bitumen for garages, outbuildings and commercial buildings.
The figures below are typical industry ranges for material and installation, published to help you compare systems. They are not a quote — your roof’s size, pitch, access and decking condition all move the number. We give written estimates after an on-site measurement.
Material | Cost ($/sq ft) | Lifespan (years) | Energy Efficiency |
Asphalt Shingles | $3.50 – $6.00 | 20–30 years | ★★☆☆☆ |
Metal Roofing | $7.00 – $12.00 | 40–50 years | ★★★★☆ |
Tile/Slate | $10.00 – $20.00 | 50–75+ years | ★★★☆☆ |
Synthetic Slate | $8.00 – $12.00 | 40–60 years | ★★★★☆ |
Flat Roof Systems | $4.00 – $7.00 | 15–25 years | ★★☆☆☆ |
When Kerrville Homeowners Replace Their Roofs
Homeowners in Kerrville replace their roofs for several common reasons. In many cases, a full replacement becomes the smarter long-term investment when repairs are adding up or storm damage has compromised too much of the system.
Storm damage from hail and high winds
Severe weather is one of the biggest reasons Kerrville homeowners need a new roof. Hail can bruise shingles and damage granules, while strong winds can lift, crease, or tear roofing materials. Even when damage is not obvious from the ground, storms can shorten the life of a roof and lead to leaks later. If your roof has been hit by severe weather, learn more about our storm damage roof repair services.
Recurring leaks and repeated repairs
A roof that needs constant patching is often a sign of broader failure. If leaks keep coming back, especially around flashing, valleys, vents, or older shingle sections, replacement may be more cost-effective than continuing to repair isolated trouble spots. In some cases, a professional roof repair evaluation can help determine whether repair is still possible or if replacement is the better option.
Roofs that are 15 to 20+ years old
Age is one of the clearest indicators that replacement may be needed. Many roofing systems begin to show significant wear after 15 to 20 years, depending on the material, installation quality, storm exposure, and maintenance history. Older roofs are more likely to suffer from leaks, shingle deterioration, and ventilation-related issues.
Granule loss and visible shingle wear
If shingles are shedding granules, curling, cracking, or looking thin and brittle, the roof may be nearing the end of its useful life. Granule loss reduces protection against the sun and weather, which can speed up deterioration in Kerrville’s heat and storm conditions.
Insurance-driven roof replacement after storm damage
After hail or wind events, some homeowners move forward with replacement through an insurance claim. If the roof has enough storm-related damage, a full replacement may be approved rather than spot repairs. We can help document visible damage and explain what we find during the inspection so you can better understand your options.
Upgrading to impact-resistant shingles or metal roofing
Some Kerrville homeowners choose replacement as an upgrade opportunity. Moving to impact-resistant shingles or a metal roofing system can improve durability, weather resistance, and long-term performance. It can also be a smart option for homeowners planning to stay in the property for years to come.
If your roof has storm damage, recurring leaks, or visible signs of age, scheduling an inspection is the best next step. Our team can assess the condition of your current roof, explain your options clearly, and help you decide whether replacement makes the most sense for your Kerrville home.
Our Roof Replacement Process
Our process is designed for efficiency, transparency, and quality results:
1. Comprehensive Roof Inspection
We assess all roofing layers—including decking, flashing, underlayment, and ventilation—to identify the full scope of replacement needs. If you’re dealing with existing issues, such as leaks, check our roof leak detection services.
2. Tear-Off and Prep
We remove old roofing materials down to the decking, addressing any hidden moisture damage or structural issues.
3. Material Selection
Choose from premium products, including Class 4 impact-resistant shingles, to match your goals and budget.
4. Precision Installation
Our trained crews follow manufacturer guidelines and building codes to ensure durable and watertight results. We also specialize in emergency roof repair when needed.
5. Final Clean-Up and Walkthrough
We perform a magnetic nail sweep, remove debris, and walk you through the finished work to guarantee satisfaction.
