What a full replacement includes

More than shingles. A complete roofing system.

When we replace a roof, we replace the whole system, not just the surface you can see from the street. A roof only performs as well as the layers underneath it, so we inspect and rebuild each component to protect your home for the long run. Every Risner roof replacement in Austin is built around your home, your budget, and Central Texas weather.

A thorough tear-off and inspection

We remove the old roofing down to the decking and inspect the wood underneath for rot, soft spots, and prior damage. Any decking that is not sound gets replaced before we build back up, because a strong roof starts with a solid foundation.

The right underlayment and flashing

  • Fresh synthetic underlayment for a strong secondary moisture barrier
  • Ice-and-water shield in valleys and around penetrations
  • New flashing at chimneys, walls, and pipe boots, where most leaks actually start
  • Proper ridge and soffit ventilation to protect the roof and lower attic heat

Premium materials, honestly recommended

We install architectural asphalt shingles, impact-resistant Class 4 shingles, and metal roofing systems from trusted manufacturers. We fit the system to your home rather than pushing whatever is easiest to install, and we explain the differences in lifespan, appearance, and cost so the choice is yours.

A clean, respectful job site

We protect your landscaping during tear-off, haul away every scrap of old material, and finish with a full magnetic nail sweep of the yard and driveway. When we leave, the only sign we were there is a better roof.

Roof replacement FAQ

Roof replacement questions, answered.

How do I know if I need a roof replacement or just a repair?

If your roof is near the end of its service life, has widespread granule loss, multiple leaks, or storm damage across large areas, replacement usually protects your home better than repeated repairs. During your free inspection we document the roof’s actual condition with photos and give you an honest recommendation, not a scare tactic.

What roofing materials can I choose from?

We install architectural asphalt shingles, impact-resistant (Class 4) shingles that can help with insurance premiums, and metal roofing systems. We carry premium options for homeowners who want a longer-lasting, higher-end finish, and we explain the trade-offs in cost, lifespan, and appearance so you can choose with confidence.

How long does a new roof take to install?

Most Austin homes are replaced in one to two days, depending on the size, pitch, and complexity of the roof and the weather. We give you a clear timeline before we start and keep you informed if anything changes.

Do you clean up after the job?

Always. We protect landscaping during the tear-off, haul away all old materials, and finish with a full magnetic nail sweep of the yard and driveway. We aim to leave your property better than we found it.

Is financing available for a roof replacement?

Yes. We offer flexible monthly payment plans with a quick, simple application so a new roof does not have to wait. You can learn more on our financing page or ask during your inspection.

What warranty comes with a new roof?

You get manufacturer coverage on the materials plus our own written workmanship warranty on the installation. We explain exactly what each one covers before any work begins, so there are no surprises later.
