Cedar Crest Roofing is a DFW contractor serving Waxahachie: residential and commercial, replacement through repair, with storm restoration handled the documented, legal way. Free inspections with written findings, and honest advice about what your roof actually needs.
Waxahachie roofs live a harder life than most: DFW hail seasons, straight-line winds, and eleven months a year of Texas sun. Cedar Crest Roofing runs the full range here, covering residential replacement, repair, storm restoration with proper documentation, free inspections, and commercial systems from membranes to metal.
Every service we offer has a Waxahachie-specific page below, and every job runs the same way: written findings, honest repair-versus-replace advice, permits handled where Waxahachie requires them, and no door-knocker pressure, ever.
Roofing in Waxahachie, specifically
Working Waxahachie roofs year-round teaches you what the market here actually looks like. Much of Waxahachie’s housing stock is new enough that its original builder-grade roofs are only now meeting their first serious hail cycles. First storms on builder-spec shingles are where a lot of Ellis County owners discover what was actually installed over their heads. The local conversations that follow are predictable and worth having early: what the builder’s workmanship coverage does and doesn’t survive, whether the first insurance claim is the moment to upgrade to Class 4 impact-rated shingles (usually yes; the premium discount math works hardest here), and how HOA architectural standards shape material choices in newer communities.
Our crews work Waxahachie alongside Ennis, Midlothian and Red Oak, so scheduling draws on the whole nearby footprint rather than a single route.

Who issues roofing permits in Waxahachie?
Roofing permits in Waxahachie run through the Waxahachie building department. Where a permit is required, we pull it and schedule the inspection as part of the job.
Do you handle both residential and commercial?
Yes, both, as separate disciplines with separate crews and processes. Residential runs from asphalt to premium systems; commercial covers membranes, coatings, and metal.
Our Waxahachie home is only a few years old. Do we really need an inspection?
After any hail event, yes. Builder-grade shingles take damage new homes' owners rarely expect, and documenting condition early protects both your claim rights and your builder-warranty conversations.
