❓Common Questions

In San Antonio, roof surface area is typically 15% to 30% larger than the home's living area due to the roof pitch (slope) and overhangs. A 2,000 sq ft home often requires 22 to 25 'squares' (100 sq ft units) of roofing material.

Yes. While Class 4 impact-resistant shingles cost $450–$650 per square (roughly 20% more than standard), they are highly recommended due to local hail frequency and can trigger insurance premium discounts of 20% to 35%.

The City of San Antonio Development Services charges a flat $27 building permit fee for stand-alone roof replacements in 2026. However, total administrative and inspection fees in a contractor's bid may range from $150 to $250.

Intense UV exposure and heat (averaging 100+ days over 90°F) degrade standard 3-tab shingles in 15–18 years. Most local contractors now quote architectural shingles ($6.50–$8.50/sq ft) as the baseline for their better heat resistance and 25-year lifespan.
