Roofing Contractor in Haltom City, TX

Haltom City is one of the older suburbs in northeast Tarrant County, and its roofs show it. Small 1950s and 1960s houses sit right beside shops, warehouses and strip centers along US 377. From Irving we cover the 23 miles in about 40 minutes by SH 183 and Loop 820. That close-quarters blend of house and commercial roofs sets Haltom City apart from the newer suburbs to its north.

Flat Roofs on US 377 Shops and Warehouses

Most commercial buildings along Denton Highway have flat or near-flat roofs, usually modified bitumen or older built-up systems. Water drains slowly on them, so a clogged drain or sagging deck turns into ponding, and ponding finds open seams.

Parapet walls are the other weak point. Flashing and coping on older buildings pull loose, and wind-driven rain gets behind them. Our flat roof repair work addresses both, and larger jobs fall under our commercial roofing services.

Is My 1950s–60s Haltom City House Ready for Roof Replacement?

If it is still on a roof from the 1990s or early 2000s, probably. Small houses from that era often have low pitches, attached carports and decking that has carried several layers of nails. When shingles crack and leaks multiply, a full roof replacement with decking repairs is the lasting fix.

Several details repeat on these houses. Many were first roofed with wood shingles over spaced plank decking, and some of those boards are still under today's asphalt, so we check for gaps and soft planks at tear-off. Rafters can be lighter than today's framing, one reason we do not stack a new layer over an old one. Pecans, elms and hackberries planted in the 1950s now tower over many lots and drop limbs in storms. Spring hail crosses northeast Tarrant County most years and hits these low-pitch roofs across their whole surface, and the February 2021 freeze of Winter Storm Uri proved that a frozen attic pipe can soak a ceiling as badly as any roof leak.

Hail Damage Roof Repair on Shingles and Membranes Off Denton Highway

Hail affects the two roof types differently. On shingles we test-square slopes for bruising; on membranes we look for punctures, fractured surfacing and damage to rooftop units. Hail damage roof repair on either kind starts with that evidence, and we photograph everything for your file.

Birdville, Belknap Street and Big Fossil Creek

Haltom City holds a piece of county history: Birdville, inside today's city limits, served as Tarrant County's first county seat in the 1850s, and the name lives on in the Birdville school district. The city itself was incorporated in 1932 and named for G. W. Haltom, and most of its housing went up in the building boom after World War II. Belknap Street and Denton Highway (US 377) carry the main commercial strips, lined with shops, restaurants and small warehouses, so a single block near them can mix low-pitch shingle roofs with flat commercial membranes, while NE 28th Street and Haltom Road cut through the older residential grid. Big Fossil Creek winds through the city with parkland along it, and Loop 820 crosses the north side, where newer homes and industrial parks sit closer to North Richland Hills and Watauga.

Our route from Irving is SH 183 to Loop 820, then Denton Highway or Belknap, so shops and homes on the main strips are quick to reach.
