A repair makes sense when the roof system is healthy and one part failed. It stops making sense when the same roof keeps generating new problems. We tell Garland homeowners which side of that line they are on and show the photos that back it up. Estimates cost nothing and arrive in writing, every inspection is photographed, we will not waive a deductible because Texas law prohibits it, and Cedar Crest is not a public adjuster.
Repair or Replace: Garland Roofs by Age
That line shows up sooner on older roofs, and Garland has a lot of them. The city’s median year built is 1978, with 35 percent of homes from 1980 through 2009 and 10 percent from 2010 on. A newer home that lost a few shingles in a storm is usually a straightforward repair. On an older home with a history of patches, we look hard at whether the next repair buys real time or just delays a replacement.
Hail shapes the math too. Golf-ball-size hail or larger has hit within 7 miles of Garland on 12 days since 2006, and the largest recorded stone was 2.5 inches on June 2, 2017. After a hit like that, a documented inspection shows whether spot repairs are enough. Our repair crews work across Dallas County and in nearby Murphy and Rowlett.
