Roofing Texas

  Just about every new build house uses GAF or Tamko and their lowest grade architectural shingle.

The seller of the home insisted they use their own Allen roofing contractor, so we lost the job, not a problem at all! The buyer got a new roof and closed on the house and was happy. Fast forward to summer of 2021 and Allen got a pretty good size hailstorm. The homeowner that we had previously put a bid in for called us out for an inspection.  No Permit On just about every Allen roof appointment, I go to I pull  history on permits  before I go. It gives me information of when the last time an Allen roofing contractor applied for a permit for replacement. I noticed there was no permit pulled in 2019 when I knew the homeowner replaced the roof and knew it might be bad. The Allen roofing inspection led to just what was expected...
