We’re Tilehurst Roofing Austin, part of the Kingswell family of roofing companies founded in 2000. Greg Holloway leads our team, and we’ve spent enough time on Taylor roofs to know that this town isn’t a copy-paste job. The pre-1940s homes on Main Street and around Murphy Park don’t behave like the newer subdivisions west of Carlos G. Parker Boulevard. We plan for that difference from the first measurement.

Why Tilehurst Roofing Austin Is Taylor’s Preferred Roof Replacement Company

Taylor homeowners call us because we answer. A live person picks up the phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No voicemail tree, no callback queue, no waiting until Monday. When you call (254) 540-7345, you get a human who can schedule your free estimate and tell you exactly what to expect before our crew arrives.

Our reputation in Taylor is built on showing up in the window we gave you. Greg Holloway insists on it. Our crews arrive in uniform, background-checked, and ready to explain the job in plain language. We don’t send a sales rep to pressure you at the kitchen table. We send a roofer who can talk about decking, flashing, and ridge caps because they’ve actually installed them.

We coordinate scheduling from our Austin office, but our crews work Taylor locally. That means when you need a roof replaced around T.H. Johnson Drive or near the high school, we’re not routing someone from across the state. We know Taylor’s permit process, we know which streets have alley access issues, and we know how to stage a job so your neighbors aren’t dodging debris for a week.

Every job begins with the Kingswell Way: say the price before the work, show up in the window we gave, leave the place cleaner than we found it, put the guarantee in writing, and come back if it fails. That’s not a slogan. It’s the operating procedure for every roof we replace in Taylor.

Reroofing in Taylor

Reroofing in Taylor means tearing off the old roofing material down to the decking, repairing or replacing damaged sheathing, and installing a complete new roof system. Most Taylor homes need this when shingles have lost their granules from years of Central Texas sun, when hail has left impact bruising across the field, or when the roof is simply past its service life. A standard asphalt shingle reroof in Taylor runs $9,800 to $14,500 for a typical single-story ranch. Architectural shingles run $12,500 to $18,000, and once you get into the historic district with steep pitches and custom work, $20,000 to $45,000 is realistic depending on what’s underneath.

Decking and Underlayment Assessment

Before we nail a single shingle in Taylor, we inspect what’s underneath. Older homes in the downtown historic district often have skip sheathing, which is the original 1900s construction method using spaced boards instead of solid plywood. Modern code and 130 mph wind ratings don’t accept skip sheathing under shingles. We’ll tell you during the estimate whether your decking needs replacement, and that cost is in the written price from day one. No change order at the door.

Steep-Pitch Access and Safety

Many Taylor historic homes have roof pitches that make shingle work genuinely dangerous. Our crews are trained and equipped for steep-slope work, and we use proper fall protection every single time. If your home has a steep gable with ornate trim, we’ll walk you through how we stage the job so your landscaping, porches, and original woodwork stay intact. Roof work at height with rotten decking is not a DIY project, and we’ll never pretend otherwise.

Flat Roof Replacement in Taylor

Flat roof replacement in Taylor is a specialized job that uses different materials and methods than shingle work. Flat and low-slope roofs, common on Taylor homes with mid-century additions, carports, or porch roofs, need membrane systems like modified bitumen or TPO rather than shingles. A flat roof replacement in Taylor typically runs $7,500 to $14,000 for a standard residential section, depending on square footage and how many penetrations need custom flashing work.

Common Flat Roof Failure Points Around Taylor

Flat roofs fail at the details. Skylights, plumbing vents, HVAC curbs, and the transition where a flat roof meets a pitched one are the spots we see leaking most often in Taylor. We replace flashing, re-seam the membrane, and test drainage before we call the job done. Ponding water on a flat roof after a Taylor thunderstorm is a predictable problem, and our tear-offs include correcting the slope where feasible.

Custom Metal Work for Flat Roof Edges

We fabricate drip edge and parapet caps on site when the original profile isn’t available off the shelf. That matters on Taylor homes where a 1950s flat-roof addition abuts a 1920s original structure and the transition flashing has to follow whatever geometry is actually there. We make it match, and we put that in writing before work begins.

Trusted Brands We Service in Taylor

We work with seven major manufacturers so you’re not stuck with whatever happens to be in the truck. For Taylor homes, that means genuine choice across GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. If you want a standing-seam metal roof to match a historic profile, we can source it. If you want architectural shingles rated to withstand Taylor hail seasons, we’ll spec GAF or CertainTeed lines that carry Class 4 impact ratings. We keep common replacement parts and accessories stocked for quick turnaround on Taylor jobs, and for custom pieces like turkey-wing ridge caps, we fabricate from sheet metal on site. Your roof, your material choice, your budget in writing.

Common Roof Replacement Problems We See in Taylor Homes

• Hail-bruised shingles on west-side subdivisions. The neighborhoods off Carlos G. Parker Boulevard are mostly 1990s and 2000s construction, and Central Texas hail seasons have left thousands of roofs with impact damage that insurance adjusters can miss. We document damage with photos and measurements so you have a real case file if you’re filing a claim.
• Tearing off original wood shingles without assessing the underlying skip sheathing. This is the most expensive mistake we see from out-of-town crews in Taylor’s historic district. They quote a simple tear-off, find skip sheathing that fails modern wind-uplift codes, and suddenly the homeowner is facing a change order. We include sheathing assessment in every Taylor estimate from the start.
• Ordering standard ridge caps and flashing for steep-pitch historic gables. The turkey-wing gable ends on early 1900s Taylor homes have geometry that off-the-shelf flashing doesn’t match. Standard caps sit proud, leave gaps, and leak at the transitions. We fabricate custom pieces on site to match the original profile, and that’s part of our normal process here, not an upgrade.
• Reusing old decking and underlayment on pre-1940s roofs. By the time a Taylor home’s original roof is ready for replacement, the decking underneath has often absorbed decades of heat, humidity, and occasional leaks. Granule loss from hail leaves the substrate spongy. We don’t lay architectural shingles over compromised decking. We replace it, and we show you the damaged boards before they go in the dumpster.
