Why Leander Roofs Need to Be Built Differently
Williamson County's Roofing Challenges
Leander sits in one of the most hail-active regions in the United States. Standard roofing installations simply aren't designed for this level of exposure.
Frequent Large Hail
Impact: The April 2024 storm impacted 11,532 properties. Multiple significant hail events occur annually. Standard shingles fail repeatedly.
Our Solution: Impact-resistant (Class 4) shingles withstand hail that destroys standard materials. Insurance discounts of 10-28% often offset higher cost.
High-Velocity Winds
Impact: Severe storms bring 60-80 mph gusts regularly. Edge lifting and progressive failure are common.
Our Solution: 6-nail patterns, enhanced starter strips, properly secured drip edge. GAF WindProven covers unlimited wind speeds.
Extreme UV & Heat
Impact: 220+ sunny days with roof temperatures exceeding 160°F. Builder-grade shingles degrade rapidly.
Our Solution: Premium materials designed for Texas heat. Better UV resistance, stronger adhesive systems.
Rapid Growth Builder Quality
Impact: Leander's explosive growth means many homes have minimum-spec materials installed quickly.
Our Solution: Replacement offers the opportunity to upgrade from builder-grade to quality materials built for this climate.
