Why Tilehurst Roofing Austin Is Camp Swift’s Preferred Roof Replacement Company

Camp Swift homeowners call us because the roof problems here aren’t the same as they are twelve miles west. The housing stock is different. The storm patterns hit different. And honestly, the insurance conversations go differently too. When you’ve got a 1960s wood-frame house with original decking and a hail claim on the table, you need a roofer who has walked that exact roof before. We’re the Roof Replacement team that shows up with a background-checked crew in uniform, tells you the price in writing, and stands behind the job for a full year under the 365-Day Done Right Promise. Greg Holloway leads our Austin operation, and he’s built this team around one rule: say the price before the work, then do what you said. Camp Swift customers don’t get a call center. They get a live person, even at 9:30 on a Sunday night when a spring storm just tore through.

Roof Replacement Contractor in Camp Swift

A roof replacement contractor in Camp Swift deals with a very specific problem set: older wood-frame homes from the 1950s through the 1970s, a large share of manufactured housing, and roofs that have absorbed decades of hail, wind, and Texas sun. The job starts with a full tear-off down to the decking. You can’t know what’s under the shingles until the old layer comes off. On a Camp Swift home, that’s usually where the real work begins, because the decking underneath is often spaced boards from the original build, nailed down before current code existed. A straightforward replacement here runs $9,800 to $14,500 when the decking is solid and sheathing doesn’t need swapping. If the decking has to be replaced, add $2,400 to $4,800 depending on square footage.

Tear-Off and Decking Assessment

We don’t reroof over old shingles in Camp Swift. The temptation to save money by layering architectural shingles over brittle three-tabs is real, but it traps hidden damage underneath and violates the manufacturer’s nailing pattern. Instead, we pull everything down and inspect the decking board by board. That’s the moment when most Camp Swift homeowners discover whether their roof is ready for new shingles or needs structural work first.

Permit-Triggered Inspections

When walls and decking come open, Bastrop County wants a look. A permit-triggered inspection on a roof replacement means the inspector checks the decking thickness, the underlayment, and the fastening schedule before we can close anything up. If your decking doesn’t meet current code, the inspection will catch it. We plan for that from day one, with allowances written into the contract so you’re not surprised when the decking gets flagged. Any change order gets priced and approved in writing before we touch it.

Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement in Camp Swift

Asphalt shingle roof replacement in Camp Swift is the standard approach for most homes here, and for good reason. The post-WWII housing stock was built for affordability, and asphalt shingles are what the original builders put down. Prices for a full asphalt shingle replacement on a Camp Swift home typically run $10,200 to $15,800, with architectural shingles adding roughly $1,400 to $2,600 over three-tab depending on the roof size and pitch. Most homes here have low-slope or medium-slope roofs, so the labor is straightforward, but the decking underneath is where costs shift.

Three-Tab vs. Architectural Shingles

Many Camp Swift homes still carry their original three-tab shingles. Those are the flat, single-layer shingles installed in three even tabs across the face. They last 15 to 20 years when the weather cooperates. Architectural shingles are thicker, layered, and carry a 30-year to lifetime manufacturer warranty from brands like GAF, CertainTeed, and Owens Corning. For Camp Swift’s hail exposure, architectural shingles hold up measurably better than three-tabs.

Manufactured Home Considerations

A significant share of Camp Swift’s housing is manufactured. The roof structure on a manufactured home is often lighter than a stick-built house, which means the decking may be thinner plywood or OSB, and the shingle weight matters. Architectural shingles usually work fine on manufactured homes with standard roof trusses, but we verify the truss spacing and decking span before recommending any product. If the existing decking is 3/8-inch plywood rather than a half-inch, we’ll tell you before you spend a dollar on shingles.

Trusted Brands We Service in Camp Swift

We install GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral products, and you choose what goes on your roof, not what happens to be on the truck that morning. For Camp Swift’s hail-prone climate, we stock a strong local supply of GAF Timberline HDZ and CertainTeed Landmark architectural shingles, plus Owens Corning Duration for homeowners who want maximum impact resistance. The material decision comes down to warranty, color, and what your insurance policy covers, and we’ll walk you through the exact cost difference in writing before anything gets ordered.

Common Roof Replacement Problems We See in Camp Swift Homes

• Spaced decking that fails a permit inspection. Many original Camp Swift homes used 1×6 boards with gaps between them instead of solid sheathing. New code requires solid decking, so these roofs almost always need decking replacement before shingles go down.
• The ‘Swift speckle’ hail damage pattern. Scattered, small impact marks across three-tab shingles that don’t look catastrophic to an insurance adjuster but have compromised the mat underneath. We document every dent with photos during tear-off so your claim doesn’t die in a reinspection loop.
• Missing or rusted drip edge along the eaves. Spring downpours in Camp Swift are intense and short. Without proper drip edge, water wicks behind the fascia board and soaks the decking edges, which is exactly where rot starts.
• Overloaded manufactured home trusses. When someone reroofs a manufactured home without checking truss spacing first, the newer, heavier shingle systems can overload the structure. We verify the framing before recommending a shingle weight.
