Roofing Contractor in North Richland Hills, TX

North Richland Hills is two cities in one for a roofer. Around NRH2O and along Loop 820, neighborhoods built in the 1960s and 1970s hold rows of ranch homes now on their second or third roof. Near the TEXRail stations at Smithfield and Iron Horse, new townhomes and transit-oriented housing went up in the last decade. We reach NRH in about 35 minutes (19 miles) from Irving by SH 183 and SH 26.

Ranch Roofs Near NRH2O and Loop 820

Low-pitch gable roofs dominate the older blocks. Many still carry two shingle layers from a 1990s overlay, and some have plank decking underneath. On those houses, a repair rarely holds for long because the layers below are already failing. A proper roof tear-off is the only way to see and fix the decking.

Pipe boots on these roofs are often original to the last re-roof and cracked from twenty years of sun, a common cause of small ceiling stains.

Storms and trees finish the picture. Spring hail tracks across northeast Tarrant County from the west, and these low-pitch roofs take it across their whole surface, so bruises and cracked tabs show on every slope at once. The older blocks near Loop 820 also have pecans, elms and oaks planted when the houses were new; their limbs now hang over ridgelines, drop debris into valleys and scrape granules off in the wind. Many of these homes gained a patio cover or den with a flatter pitch than the main roof, and the joint where the two meet is one of the leak points we trace most often here.

Townhomes Around Smithfield and Iron Horse Stations

The newer housing near the TEXRail stations brings different issues. Three-story townhomes have steep roofs, small dormers and walls that rise out of lower roof sections. Every one of those joints needs correct step and kick-out flashing, and errors there show up as leaks within a few years of construction.

Smithfield, Boulevard 26 and Big Fossil Creek

NRH runs north from Loop 820 and Boulevard 26, the city's stretch of SH 26, past Mid-Cities Boulevard toward North Tarrant Parkway. The south end, around NRH2O, Rufe Snow Drive and the Richland Hills line, holds the oldest neighborhoods. Big Fossil Creek winds through the middle with parks and greenbelt along its banks, and the city-owned Iron Horse Golf Course gives its name to one of the two TEXRail stations. The other, Smithfield, is named for a 19th-century crossroads community the city later took in, and new townhomes now cluster near both stops. The north side along Davis Boulevard and Precinct Line Road is mostly 1990s and newer, with larger two-story homes.

From Irving we take SH 183 west and then SH 26 north, so the southern half of the city is the quickest to reach. Tell us your cross street when you call and we will plan the visit around it.

Which NRH Roofs Need Roof Replacement, and Which Just Need Repair?

Older ranch roofs usually need full roof replacement; newer townhome roofs usually need targeted roof repair at flashing and penetrations. After a northeast Tarrant County hailstorm, either can need hail damage roof repair, and we test-square each slope before saying which.

What Does a Roofing Contractor in North Richland Hills, TX Do on Site?

We set a time, come over from our Irving roofing contractor base, and inspect from the ground up: gutters, vents, then every slope, valley and joint on the roof. You get photos and a written estimate, free, explained in English or Spanish. If a hailstorm sends you to your insurer, the photo set doubles as claim evidence, and our roof insurance claim help page explains what else we do and what Texas law leaves to you.
