Roof decking repair in Houston, TX

Your roof decking is the plywood or OSB layer that everything else sits on. In Houston's humidity, it doesn't take much — a small chronic leak, poor attic ventilation, or a bad flashing job — to turn solid decking into something soft and spongy. When that happens, even a brand new shingle job won't perform the way it should. We check the decking on every tear-off job we do. If we find soft spots or visibly rotted boards, we stop and show you before we start installing new material. We photograph it, explain what we found, and give you a written price to fix it before the new roof goes on. Decking repairs typically run $75 to $150 per sheet of plywood, and most jobs that need it only need a few sheets replaced. The repair itself is straightforward: we remove the damaged boards, inspect the rafters underneath, replace any rafter blocking that's compromised, and nail in new plywood to code. It adds a few hours to the job but it means the new roof is sitting on a solid, dry surface the way it's supposed to. Skipping decking repairs is a shortcut some contractors take to keep their bid number low. We don't do that. A roof is only as good as what's underneath it, and a warranty doesn't mean much if the base layer is failing. We're a locally owned company in Houston — our reputation is built one job at a time, and we're not going to cut corners on your house just to win the bid.
