Our Ranking Methodology

Our process involves collecting a list of about 24,000 companies nationwide and analyzing their online presence. We extract their highlights and lowlights using machine learning and natural language processing. Using this information, we score each company based on a combination of review criteria, including:

• Experience: The company should have evidence of experience in its industry, and should employ quality contractors.
• Service area: Whether or not the company services your city, as well as how many areas in the city it services. Companies with a larger service area score higher.
• Customer experience: We take a look at each company's customer reviews to determine how satisfied customers are with the company's service and products.
• Accreditation: Companies with proper licensing and knowledgeable professionals rank higher.
• Pros and cons: We sort the above factors into pros and cons for the company, such as roofing materials available, customer satisfaction and reviews, and cost, and weigh the score based on those.

Then, we map companies based on service area and show the most relevant providers in your area based on each company's distance from you and its overall scores.

Roof Replacement

Roof replacement is a common service in Dallas and the surrounding area. Replacing your roof ranges between $5,000 and $15,000 overall, but your cost will depend on various factors like the square footage of your home and the roofing material you want. The roofing material will be a substantial percentage of your overall cost. For instance, asphalt shingles cost between $1 and $3 per square foot, so if you have a 2,200-square-foot home, the materials alone will cost between $1,200 and $6,600.

Roof Repair

Roof repair is another service that's provided by most Dallas roofing companies, mainly to cater to the demand, since it's one of the most requested roofing services in the area. On average, a roof repair costs about $1,000, but it can be higher or lower depending on how extensive the repairs are.

Roof Cleaning

Another service needed in Dallas from time to time is roof cleaning. A roofer will usually pressure wash your roof to clean it and that, which can cost an average of $300 to $700.

Which materials are best for Dallas's climate?

The temperature and weather can put enormous stress on your home's heating and cooling system if you don't have the right roofing style. Below we'll detail some factors to take into consideration when looking into a roofing material:

• Durability: Extreme weather phenomenons and precipitation can damage some types of roofing materials. Metal roofs tend to be the most resilient, making them a good option from both an energy efficiency and a durability standpoint.
• Solar installation: If you're thinking of installing solar panels like other Dallas homeowners, you might want to get a roof material that you won't have to replace as often as asphalt, such as metal, slate, or clay. This will prevent the cost of taking down your panels to replace the roof underneath.
• Sustainability: Asphalt is one of the least sustainable roofing materials because it's derived from a petroleum-based substance. Metal roofs can be recycled so that material can be a good option for sustainability.

Signs I should replace my roof

Knowing when to replace your roof can help avoid leaks and other forms of damage from worsening, potentially costing you hundreds or thousands of dollars in water damage or other roof-related issues.

First, if you have a single roof leak, you might be able to get by with a simple repair, which will cost far less than re-roofing your home. However, if you see multiple leaks or consistent issues with leaking regardless of repairs, it's likely that your roof needs replacement.

If you plan on installing solar panels, you might want to replace your roof beforehand if you know its useful life will be up in less than 10 years.

The table below goes over information on the average lifespans of different roofing materials, which can help you figure out if it's time to replace your roof:

Finding the right roofing company

Your roof is the primary layer of defense for your home and your family, so finding a reputable roofer to complete your repair or replacement is key. There are a few things you can do to help you find a reliable company.

First, we recommend going with a company that has several years of experience. More experienced companies are more likely to get the job done right and provide quality workmanship on your roofing job.

The state of Texas requires that all roofers are licensed with the state. In addition, permits are usually required for roof installations, roof replacements and some kinds of roof repair, so it's a good idea to check that your installer will be getting the required permits.

Finally, we suggest you look at some online reviews for any company you're considering. Reading both positive and negative comments about how the company has treated past customers can give you some insight into the service and quality of product it will provide to you.
