Roofers in Richardson, TX
Roofers in Richardson, TX work on a housing stock that was largely built between the 1960s and 1980s, and a lot of those original asphalt shingle roofs are now at or past their expected service life. Add in North Texas hail, high winds, and flat terrain that offers no windbreak, and you get a city where roof problems tend to show up all at once after a storm. We’re Mercer Roofing, and every job starts with a written price before any work begins. Call (432) 302-5605 to schedule a free estimate.
Why Richardson Homes Are Different
Richardson’s neighborhoods are full of mid-century ranch homes and traditional two-story brick-veneer houses, many of them still wearing their original asphalt shingles. Those shingles have spent decades under intense Texas UV exposure, and the hot, humid summers here bake roofing materials in a way that shortens their life compared to cooler climates. When the spring hail storms come through, neighborhoods like Richardson Heights and Canyon Creek see a wave of out-of-town roofers knocking on doors within days. What actually matters after those storms is whether anyone checked the low-slope built-up roofs on the older sections of town, or custom-flashed the brick veneer chimneys that are everywhere in this city. Those are the details that get missed when crews don’t know Richardson.
Large oak and pecan trees are another constant. They drop leaf litter into valleys and gutters, and limbs from high-wind events scrape shingle granules off the surface. We see it on nearly every inspection: a roof that looks fine from the ground but has granule loss along the edges where branches rub, or debris dams at the chimney flashing. Wind-driven rain is the recurring failure mode on Richardson’s flat terrain, because there’s no hill or ridge to break the gusts. Roofers in Richardson have to plan for uplift, not just leaks. That’s why we check decking fasteners and edge metal on every repair, not just the shingles themselves.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Richardson Services
Richardson homeowners call us most often for two things: storm and age-related roof repairs on existing homes, and full replacements when the original shingles have finally given out. Here’s what each involves in Richardson.
Roof Repair in Richardson
Most repairs we do in Richardson come down to one of three things: wind-lifted shingles after a storm, flashing failures around those brick veneer chimneys, or granule loss and cracking on 20-plus-year-old shingles. A roof on a 1970s ranch in Richardson behaves differently than one on a new build in a master-planned community: the decking has expanded and contracted for decades, the flashing was installed to older standards, and the tree cover means more debris sitting on the surface. We inspect the whole roof, not just the visible damage, and every repair gets a written guarantee including a free second visit if the repair fails within 365 days. Read more on our Roof Repair in Richardson page.
Roofing Company in Richardson
When you search for a Roofing Company in Richardson, you’ll find plenty of out-of-town crews that chase storms and leave. We’re not that. We answer the phone with a live person 24/7, and we send you the technician’s name and photo before they arrive, so you know exactly who’s coming to your door. That matters in Richardson, where homeowners are understandably wary after a hail event brings a parade of unfamiliar trucks through the neighborhood. We work on the full range of what Richardson throws at us: comp shingle replacements on 1980s two-stories, low-slope built-up roof repairs on older sections, and everything in between.
Roof Installation in Richardson
Full roof installation in Richardson usually means tearing off an original 1960s – 1980s shingle roof and starting fresh. Before the first nail goes in, we give you a written price that covers decking condition, underlayment, flashing replacement, and the shingle system itself. We don’t start work without that number in writing, and we don’t change it halfway through. Richardson’s climate means we recommend underlayment choices that handle both the summer heat and wind-driven rain. Get the full picture on our Roof Installation in Richardson page.

What Richardson Customers Say
"Leak showed up in the hallway ceiling after a big storm. They found the failed pipe flashing in about ten minutes, replaced it, and checked the attic for wet insulation."
- Sophie R."Roofer showed his ID and gave me the crew lead's name before anyone climbed the ladder. Replaced a patch of missing shingles and resealed two vent boots. Written estimate matched the final bill."
- Brian J."Honest inspection. He went up, took photos, and told me I had maybe five more years instead of selling a full replacement."
