What to do before anybody climbs a ladder
- Catch the water and photograph itA bucket under the drip, belongings moved, and a few photographs of the stain before anything is touched. Keep clear of wet ceilings near a light fixture and switch that circuit off if it is safe to.
- Note when it leaksIn every rain, only in wind-driven rain, or for hours after the rain stops. That one detail narrows the search before anybody climbs a ladder.
- Look in the attic if you safely canWater tracks on the rafters, damp insulation or daylight around a vent point straight at the entry, and a found entry point is a cheaper repair.
- Find out when the roof was last doneClosing papers, an old invoice, or a neighbor who remembers the crew. A shingle-only re-roof needs no Baytown permit, so the city may have no record; if nobody knows, the roof gets dated on site.

Call (281) 343-3946Note 01Is a 20 year old roof considered old?
For asphalt shingle it is getting there, but age alone does not settle it. Asphalt shingles are generally rated at 15 to 30 years, and 3-tab shingles toward the short end at 15 to 20, so a 20-year-old roof deserves a proper reading, not an automatic replacement. If the granules are holding, the shingles lie flat, the flashings are sound and the attic shows no water tracks, it may have years left, and that estimate goes on paper.
Note 02How often should a roof be replaced?
When it stops being repairable, not on a calendar. Asphalt shingles are generally rated at 15 to 30 years and metal at 40 to 70, but a roof is done when it leaks in several places, sags, sheds shingles in every wind or needs a new repair every season. In Baytown there is often no permit record of the last re-roof, so the roof itself is the record.
Note 03What is the average cost to replace a roof in Texas?
Published Baytown estimates put a typical single-story home in standard architectural shingle at about $9,000 to $16,000, and full replacements generally from about $7,000 to $15,000 and up. A two-story house, a heavier material or extra layers to strip push it higher. Your own figure depends on the roof area, the layers and the deck, so it is a written quote once the roof has been seen.
Note 04Do you need a permit to get your roof redone?
In Baytown it depends on the deck. The city requires a permit when roof decking is installed, replaced or repaired, and does not require one for roof shingle replacement only. Permits come from the Building Services Division at 2401 Market St, and the contractor applies for a Baytown Professional License before one issues. A re-roof quote should say what happens if soft decking is found.
