Based on Little Road, working across Arlington

Arlington is home base. Our office is at 4275 Little Rd #202 in southwest Arlington, the company was founded here in 2017, and we are registered with the City of Arlington as a contractor. We are insured, and homeowners rate us 4.9 on Google. Call (817) 754-9484.

Being close matters most after the work is done. If a flashing detail needs a second look or a storm tests a new roof, we are a short drive from almost any street in the city. Every roof we install carries our 5-year labor warranty. We are CertainTeed certified.

What Arlington’s re-roof permit requires

Arlington requires a building permit to replace roof covering unless the replaced area is 10 percent of the roof or less. The permit must be issued and posted at the house before work starts, every contractor must be registered with the city, and the city inspects the finished roof before closing the permit.

The city’s re-roof technical bulletin (September 2023) answers the questions we hear most:

QuestionWhat the City of Arlington says
Can new shingles go over the old ones?Existing layers must come off down to the decking unless a code exception applies.
Does all the decking have to be replaced?No. Sound decking can stay. Rotten or broken decking must be replaced, at least 7/16 inch for a 24/16 span rating.
Is new underlayment required?Yes, whenever the roof is re-shingled.
Is drip edge required?Yes, when decking is replaced. Flashing is required on every re-roof.
Is ice barrier underlayment required?No. The city’s amendments drop it because the region has no history of ice damming.

Whether your job needs a permit should be settled before work starts and noted on the written estimate. Our guide to roof permits in Arlington and Fort Worth compares the two cities side by side.

Storms that have hit Arlington

Arlington has taken direct hits from tornadoes and large hail, and the record is public. The National Weather Service and the Storm Prediction Center have logged the events below. None of them is unusual for Tarrant County, which is why we recommend an inspection after any storm with hail, even when the roof looks fine from the yard.

DateWhat happenedSource

Roofing services for Arlington homes and businesses

Every service we offer is available in Arlington, and five of them have their own Arlington page with local detail on permits, storms and what the work involves. Pricing is set per roof after we measure it, because size, pitch, layers and decking condition all move the number.

For what drives the price, see the DFW roof replacement cost guide. Those figures are published market data, not our quotes.

Across Arlington, from Viridian to Lake Arlington

We work in every part of Arlington, and the roofs change from one side of the city to the other. Older homes near downtown and the UT Arlington campus can carry a second layer of shingles or attic ventilation sized to an older standard. Newer construction in Viridian is often still on its first roof.

On those newer homes, the first serious hailstorm usually brings the first replacement, and often the first insurance claim. Pantego and Dalworthington Gardens sit inside Arlington’s borders but are separate towns with their own permit offices, so we check their rules for each address. Beyond the city line we also work in Grand Prairie, Mansfield, Kennedale and Fort Worth.

FAQ

Questions from Arlington homeowners

Is Roof Experts actually based in Arlington?

Yes. Our one and only office is at 4275 Little Rd #202, Arlington, TX 76016, in southwest Arlington. Estimates, scheduling and crews all run from there, and you can reach us at (817) 754-9484 or contact@roofexpertsllc.com.

Is Roof Experts registered with the City of Arlington?

Yes. Arlington requires every contractor working in the city to be registered before a permit can be issued, and Roof Experts is registered. Ask any roofer you are considering for the same thing before you sign.

Do I need a permit to fix a small section of my Arlington roof?

Usually not. The City of Arlington requires a building permit to replace roof covering unless the replaced area is 10 percent of the roof or less. The work still has to meet code, including flashing, drip edge and new underlayment where shingles are replaced.

Can a new roof go over my old shingles in Arlington?

Generally no. Arlington's re-roof bulletin follows the residential code, which says existing roof coverings must be removed down to the decking unless a narrow exception applies. A full tear-off also lets us see and replace any damaged decking before the new roof goes on.

Do you work in Pantego and Dalworthington Gardens?

Yes. Both towns sit inside Arlington's borders and are a few minutes from our office. They are separate cities with their own permit offices, so we confirm the local requirements for your address before scheduling the work.

What warranty comes with an Arlington roof from Roof Experts?

Our roofing work on steep-slope roofs such as shingle, metal and tile carries a 5-year workmanship warranty. We put the warranty terms for your job in writing with your estimate, before you sign anything, so you know what is covered.

Is the roof inspection really free?

Yes. We inspect the roof, photograph what we find and tell you whether it needs a repair, a replacement or nothing at all. There is no charge and no obligation to hire us.
