Overview

From the oldest roofs to the newest, every job on file.

The Colony grew in layers: an original core of late-1970s and 80s homes near Lewisville Lake, a wave of 1990s and 2000s buildout, then the late-2000s master-planned streets out on the peninsula. Each layer ages differently, so the oldest roofs come due on the calendar while the newest ones answer to hail.

The Colony Roofing Experts is where any of it starts: roof replacement, leak and storm repairs, hail work, commercial flat roofs, and free inspections. Whatever the job, a local roofer photographs the roof and writes down its condition first, so you keep a dated file of your own instead of a verbal call.

  • Leaks traced, sealed, and logged
  • Hail and wind damage, dated and photographed
  • Flat and low-slope roofs for Austin Ranch businesses
  • No-charge inspections, no obligation after
How the file gets built

Your Colony roof job, each stage approved before the next.

Every stage leaves a page in the file: a photo set, a condition report, an itemized price, the build notes, then the closeout. None of it moves forward until you approve the step before, so nothing lands on the roof, or the invoice, that you did not sign for.

01 Inspect

First page in the file: every plane, photographed

A local roofer starts on the deck, not in the driveway, walking each slope, valley, and flashing point in person. On the peninsula, where wind off Lewisville Lake drives hail and rain hard into the shingles, that close look is the only honest way to separate real damage from a roof that has simply aged.

02 Document

The condition, spelled out slope by slope

The findings go down in writing, in plain words you can read yourself: which slopes are worn, where the decking under the shingles has gone soft, and whether the call is a spot repair or a full replacement. Nothing gets decided from the tailgate.

findings written up, soft spots flagged
03 Written estimate

A price appears only after the roof is on paper

Only once the roof is documented does a number show up: one written estimate with every line named, so nothing hides inside a lump sum. You decide on your own calendar, and no one asks for a signature while the ladder is still against the eave.

04 Build to spec

The build follows the file, line for line

After you approve it, local roofers build exactly the scope on paper, deck to ridge: any soft boards swapped out, fresh underlayment and the ice-and-water barrier laid down, flashing set at the joints, then the new field on top. The written scope is the build list, start to finish.

05 Wrap-up & warranty

Closeout: a clean roof, then the paperwork

The last stage is the closeout walk: the yard and gutters swept with a magnet for stray nails, every plane checked against the quote, and the workmanship warranty put in your hands in writing. Manufacturer coverage rides on the materials the roofer installs, and your copy of the file closes with all of it inside.

The local record

Thirty-three hail days on Denton County's books since 2023.

NOAA has logged 33 hail days across Denton County in the current window, topped by a 5.90-inch stone, bigger than a grapefruit, near Sanger on June 15, 2023, with peak gusts to 96 mph. Hail that size bruises a shingle without punching through, so a roof can look fine from the street and still be quietly shedding granules. Tying the loss to one dated storm is what keeps a hail claim from being waved off later. The season-by-season record is below.

Service area

Which stretch of The Colony is your roof on?

Local roofers work every part of The Colony: the lakeside master-planned streets of The Tribute, the golf-course homes of Stewart Peninsula, the mixed residential and commercial roofs of Austin Ranch, the older east-side blocks of Eastvale, and the original 1970s and 80s homes of Original Town near the lake. Find your neighborhood on the service-area list, usually close enough that a roofer can be on the roof the same week a storm rolls through.

Questions

Read these before you book an inspection.

Q1Does The Colony Roofing Experts actually do the roofing?
The Colony Roofing Experts is the front door, not the roofer. Send a few details through the form and a local roofer in the area follows up, gets on the roof, documents its condition, and carries out any work you approve, starting with a free inspection.
Q2Is the inspection genuinely free, and what do I keep afterward?
Yes, the visit costs nothing and nothing is owed after it. A local roofer photographs every slope, takes the roof's measurements, and leaves you a written scope naming one honest price for any work. It is all documented from up on the roof, not eyeballed from the yard, and the folder is yours to keep and read on your own time whether or not you hire anyone.
Q3My Tribute home is newer, is an inspection still worth booking?
An inspection is still worth booking. Out on the peninsula, roofs in The Tribute and Stewart Peninsula are newer, so age is rarely the issue, but open water off Lewisville Lake drives hail hard, and a 5.90-inch stone like the one Denton County logged in 2023 can bruise a shingle without leaving a leak the same day. On the older homes in Original Town or Eastvale, replacement age is the more common question. Either way, a documented look tells you where the roof stands before a small problem becomes a ceiling stain.
Q4Will insurance cover a 20-year-old roof in Texas?
Coverage depends on the roof's condition and your carrier, not just its age. Texas policies commonly pay storm damage on a 20-year-old roof, though older roofs are more often settled at actual cash value, which factors in wear, rather than full replacement cost. What helps either way is a documented, dated inspection tied to a real storm, so the damage is on record before you file. The storm insurance walk-through lays out how coverage tends to work.
Q5Do the roofers handle flat and commercial roofs too?
Yes. Flat and low-slope commercial roofs are part of the range, including TPO, EPDM, and PVC membranes, modified bitumen, and coatings, the kind of systems common on the offices, retail, and apartments around Austin Ranch. A building gets the same on-foot walk and written scope a house does before any price is set. The systems are detailed on the commercial roofing page.
Q6What does a new roof run in The Colony?
There is no single sticker price; it moves with the roof's size and pitch, the shingle you choose, and how much decking needs replacing once the old roof is off. Most homes here are a one to two day tear-off and re-roof once materials arrive and the weather holds. Your written estimate gives the real number after a roofer measures the roof, and the cost guide lays out clear ranges by shingle type.
One visit, on the record

A single documented visit puts your roof's condition in writing.

One free inspection trades guesswork for a dated file: a roofer walks every plane, photographs what the weather left behind, and writes down the roof's real condition for you to keep. Reach out to The Colony Roofing Experts and a local roofer takes it from there, nothing owed for the visit.
