At Swordsmen Roofing, we deliver a complete suite of roofing services for residential and commercial clients. Each service is performed by experienced crews who follow strict quality standards and respect your property while working efficiently.

We offer timely assessments, clear proposals, and reliable scheduling. Our goal is to make the roofing process simple and reassuring from consultation to final inspection.

When a roof reaches the end of its useful life or sustained storm damage makes replacement the logical choice, we recommend systems that maximize longevity and appearance. We evaluate structure, ventilation, and insulation needs to select the best materials for your project.

Upgrades often include improved underlayment, better flashings, and enhanced ridge ventilation to increase energy efficiency and overall performance. Every replacement is planned to reduce future maintenance and extend service life.

Timely repairs protect your home or business from water intrusion and structural damage. We diagnose leaks, replace damaged shingles or tiles, repair flashing, and restore underlayment where needed. Repairs are conducted with the same standards used for full replacements.

For older roofs that still have good structure, our rejuvenation treatments restore weathered materials and extend life without a full replacement. This conserves resources while delivering measurable performance improvements when appropriate.

Regular inspections help catch small issues before they become costly problems. We offer scheduled maintenance plans to clear debris, check flashings, inspect vents, and verify seal integrity so your roof keeps protecting your investment.

Our preventative approach reduces surprises and prolongs service life. For commercial customers, planned maintenance also supports budget predictability and compliance with building standards.

Choosing the right materials is critical for performance in Austin and across Texas. We install asphalt shingles, premium metal systems, elegant tile, and composite roofing that mimics slate or shake while offering modern durability.

Our product selection balances visual appeal, long-term performance, and cost. We work with leading manufacturers and offer systems rated for high wind and Class 4 impact protection where needed.

Material Benefits Lifespan
Asphalt Shingles Affordable, versatile, strong Hail/Wind Resistance 20-30 years
Metal Roofing Durable, energy efficient, high uplift resistance 30-50 years
Composite/Brava Luxury look with lightweight modern engineering 30-50 years

High-quality asphalt shingles remain a popular choice for Texas homes, offering cost-effective protection and strong Hail/Wind Resistance when installed with correct underlayment and fastening patterns. We select shingles with proven adhesive seals and Class 4 impact ratings when necessary.

Our installations include proper ventilation and flashings to prevent premature wear and support energy efficiency. For homeowners seeking balance between price and reliability, modern laminated shingles are a dependable option.

Metal roofing offers outstanding durability and resistance to uplift during severe wind events. With professional attachment and sealed seams, metal systems can provide long-term defense and excellent reflectivity to lower cooling costs in warm climates.

We install metal panels with attention to roof deck preparation, fastener selection, and flashing details. When paired with proper insulation and ventilation, metal systems deliver lasting performance and a compelling long-term value proposition.

As a Preferred Brava Contractor, we install composite products that replicate slate, shake, or tile without their weight or fragility. These systems offer stunning curb appeal and simplified maintenance while delivering strong performance.

Composite systems are chosen frequently for historic restorations or high-end new builds that require lasting aesthetics. They offer consistent color retention, wind resistance, and simplified replacement cycles compared to natural materials.

Preparing roofs for Texas storms is central to our work. We prioritize systems with Hail/Wind Resistance & Texas Storm Readiness (Class 4, Uplift) so homes and businesses can withstand powerful weather events and recover faster.

Our installations and repairs meet manufacturer standards, local codes, and best practices for uplift resistance. This attention to detail lowers the risk of damage and supports longer warranty coverage.

Proper nailing patterns, high-quality underlayment, and reinforced flashings reduce the chance of wind-driven failures. Our crews adhere to tested attachment methods and secure edges to mitigate uplift during severe gusts and hail storms.

We also verify substrate condition and upgrade roof deck attachments when necessary to improve system shear strength. Preventive reinforcement is a cost-effective step that reduces future storm damage risks.
