  • How often should I have my roof inspected?

    Your roof should be inspected at least once a year, ideally during the spring or fall when weather conditions are milder. Regular inspections help identify minor issues like loose shingles, damaged flashing, or small leaks before they develop into more serious problems. Additionally, it's important to schedule an inspection after severe weather events such as hailstorms or high winds, which are common in Texas. These inspections can reveal hidden damage that may not be visible from the ground, helping you avoid costly repairs down the line.

  • How do I know if I need roof repair or roof replacement?

    Determining whether you need roof repair or roof replacement depends on several factors, including the age of your roof, the extent of the damage, and the overall condition of your roofing system. If your roof is less than 15 years old and the damage is isolated to a specific area, roof repair may be sufficient. However, if your roof is nearing the end of its 20 to 30-year lifespan, has widespread damage, or shows signs of sagging, curling shingles, or persistent leaks, a roof replacement is likely the more cost-effective solution. Our roofing contractor will conduct a thorough inspection and provide an honest assessment of your roof's condition to help you make the best decision.

  • What types of roofing materials do you work with?

    At Mancha Roofing, we have extensive experience working with a wide variety of roofing materials to suit any style or budget. Our roof installation services include asphalt shingle roofs, metal roofs, slate roofs, tile roofs, and flat roofs. Each material offers unique benefits in terms of durability, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal. Our team will help you choose the best roofer-recommended material for your home based on your preferences, budget, and the specific needs of your property.

  • How long does a roof replacement take?

    The timeline for a roof replacement depends on the size and complexity of your roof, as well as the type of roofing material being installed. On average, most residential roof replacement projects can be completed within two to three days. However, larger homes or roofs with intricate designs may require additional time. Weather conditions can also impact the timeline. Our roofing contractor can provide you with a clear estimate of how long your specific project might take.

  • What should I do if I notice a roof leak?

    If you notice a roof leak, it's important to act quickly to prevent further damage to your home. Start by placing a bucket or container under the leak to catch any dripping water. If possible, identify the source of the leak and mark the area so our team can locate it easily. Contact Mancha Roofing as soon as possible to schedule an inspection. Our roofing contractors will assess the damage, identify the root cause of the leak, and recommend the appropriate roof repair solution to restore your roof's integrity.

  • How much does roof installation cost?
