Stone-coated steel solves one problem: metal performance without a metal look. The panels interlock, weigh far less than real tile, and carry strong impact ratings for DFW hail. HOA-sensitive neighborhoods in Richardson often accept stone-coated profiles where bare metal would be rejected, so check your HOA’s specifics before you settle on a product. We install and service stone-coated steel here with free written estimates and inspections documented in photos. We never waive deductibles, because Texas law does not allow it, and Cedar Crest is not a public adjuster.
A tile or shake look that suits Richardson homes and storms
Weight is a big reason stone-coated steel works in Richardson. With a median year built of 1986 and 44 percent of the housing stock predating 1980, many roofs here sit on framing that was never designed for concrete or clay tile. Stone-coated panels give those homes a tile or shake profile without the load. Hail is the other reason. The Richardson area recorded hail an inch or larger in 14 of the last 20 years, and 12 days since 2006 produced golf-ball-size stones or larger. Interlocking steel panels with strong impact ratings are built for that pattern. For newer homes, the 21 percent built in 2010 or later, the draw is usually the look. Our stone-coated crews work across Dallas County and in Garland and Addison.
