Roofing Company in Austin - Free Inspection, Itemized Written Quote

Trusted Roofing Company for Austin Homeowners

Our Roofing Company in Austin does more than nail down shingles. It protects the single largest investment most families will ever make, and it decides who stands at your front door. We founded Mercer Roofing Co Austin in 2000 because we saw too many Austin homeowners put off roof work they knew they needed, just because they didn’t want a stranger walking up their driveway. Every Mercer technician is background-checked, identity-verified, wears a clean marked uniform, and presents a photo ID badge at the door. Before the visit, we send you the technician’s name and photo, so you know exactly who is coming. Call (361) 202-8874 any time. A live person answers, 24/7.

Roofing Contractor

Roofing Contractor is the licensed professional you hire to inspect, repair, replace, or install the roof system on your home or business. In Austin, you need a roofing contractor when shingles start curling after a hailstorm, when a leak shows up on the ceiling after a Hill Country downpour, or when your roof is approaching the end of its expected life. Mercer Roofing Co Austin handles the full scope: asphalt shingle replacement, flashing repair, decking replacement, underlayment installation, and full tear-offs. Most minor repairs in Austin run $350 to $800, while a full shingle replacement on a typical 1,800 square foot home lands between $9,500 and $16,000 depending on pitch, layers, and decking condition. Grant Whitlock leads the team, and every price is written before we touch your roof.

Shingle Replacement

Austin storms and summer UV do real damage to asphalt shingles. We use manufacturer-recognized products from GAF and CertainTeed, and we replace damaged decking and underlayment when we find it.

Leak Repair

Leaks travel. Water often enters at the flashing and shows up ten feet away on the ceiling. We trace the actual entry point before quoting any repair, so you’re not paying for guesswork.

Roof Inspection

Roof Inspection is a systematic check of your roof’s structure, covering, flashing, and drainage points to catch problems before they become leaks. Austin homeowners schedule inspections after major hail events, before buying or selling a house, or as an annual maintenance habit. Mercer Roofing Co Austin provides a written inspection report with photos, measured damage, and a prioritized list of what actually needs attention now versus what can wait. A visual roof inspection in Austin typically costs $150 to $350, and we apply that fee toward any repair you approve within 30 days. We never use an inspection to invent work. If your roof is sound, we tell you that in writing.

Storm Damage Checks

Hail in Austin doesn’t always leave obvious dents you can see from the ground. We check granule loss, impact bruising on shingles, and seal failures around flashing where wind-driven rain gets in.

Real Estate Inspections

Buying a home in Hutto or Shady Hollow? A pre-purchase roof inspection gives you a real number for remaining roof life, so you negotiate with facts instead of guesses.

Commercial Roofing

Commercial Roofing covers flat and low-slope roof systems on offices, retail buildings, warehouses, and multi-unit properties across the Austin metro. Commercial roofs fail differently than residential ones, usually at seams, drains, and penetrations rather than across the field. Mercer Roofing Co Austin services TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, and metal commercial roofs, and we coordinate work around your operating hours so you’re not shutting down a business for a roof repair. Small commercial repairs in Austin generally run $600 to $2,500 depending on the membrane type and damage extent. Full commercial recover or replacement projects are priced per square foot after a documented site survey.

Flat Roof Repair

Flat and low-slope roofs need water to move. When drains clog or seams split, ponding water accelerates membrane failure. We repair seams, flashings, and drains and address the ponding pattern that caused the problem.

Preventive Programs

For commercial property managers, we offer scheduled maintenance visits with written condition reports. It’s how buildings in Cedar Park and Round Rock avoid surprise roof failures during Central Texas storm season.

Metal Roof Installation

Metal Roof Installation is the full replacement of a roof with standing seam or exposed-fastener metal panels designed for Central Texas weather. Austin homeowners choose metal for longevity, fire resistance, and the way it sheds hail impact that would shred asphalt shingles. Mercer Roofing Co Austin installs 24-gauge and 26-gauge standing seam systems with concealed fasteners, which means no exposed screw heads to leak over time. Metal roof installation in Austin typically runs $14 to $26 per square foot installed depending on panel profile, roof complexity, and whether we’re doing a full tear-off first. That’s a real number you can plan around, and we put it in writing before any work begins.

Standing Seam Systems

Standing seam is the metal roof we recommend most for Austin homes. Concealed fasteners, clean lines, and decades of service life with minimal maintenance.

Tear-Off and Prep

Metal needs a clean, solid deck. We handle the tear-off, inspect and replace damaged decking, and install the correct underlayment before the first panel goes on.

Residential Roofing

Residential Roofing is the full range of roof work on single-family homes, from small repairs to complete replacement of the roof system. Austin homes take a beating from spring hail, August heat, and occasional freeze cycles, which is why we see so much premature shingle failure across the metro. Mercer Roofing Co Austin works on homes in Austin, Brushy Creek, Wells Branch, Lakeway, Bastrop, and every neighborhood in between. Full asphalt shingle replacements on Austin homes typically range from $9,500 to $16,000 depending on square footage, pitch, and how many layers we’re tearing off. The written price covers every line item from drip edge to ridge cap, so what you approve is what you pay.

Full Roof Replacement

We replace the entire system: shingles, underlayment, flashing, vents, and drip edge. A new roof is only as good as its weakest layer, so we don’t skip the parts you can’t see from the ground.

Partial Repairs

Sometimes the damage is confined to one slope or one valley. If so, we quote that and only that. A partial repair in Austin is usually $350 to $1,500 depending on the size of the affected area.

Roof Maintenance

Roof Maintenance is the scheduled, preventive work that extends the life of your roof: clearing debris, re-sealing penetrations, checking flashing, and documenting condition changes over time. In Austin, where oak pollen, cedar debris, and wind-driven rain are constants, a roof that gets maintained twice a year will last years longer than one that’s ignored until a leak appears. Mercer Roofing Co Austin provides maintenance programs that include photo documentation, a written condition report after every visit, and priority scheduling if we find a developing problem. Annual roof maintenance in Austin typically costs $250 to $500 per visit depending on roof size and access difficulty. Every maintenance visit includes a written guarantee on the maintenance-specific work performed.

Debris and Drainage

Leaves and branches trap moisture against shingles and flashing. We clear valleys, gutters, and roof penetrations so water leaves the roof the way it was designed to.

Sealant and Flashing Checks

Sealant around pipes, vents, and chimneys dries and cracks in Austin’s heat. We inspect and re-seal these points annually before they open into leaks.

Roof Coating

Roof Coating is the application of a liquid-applied protective membrane over an existing roof surface to extend its life and reduce heat absorption. In Austin, roof coatings are most useful on flat and low-slope roofs: commercial buildings, patio covers, detached garages, and older homes with modified bitumen or metal roofs. Mercer Roofing Co Austin applies silicone and acrylic coating systems that reflect UV, reduce surface temperature, and seal hairline cracks before they become leaks. Roof coating in Austin typically runs $2.50 to $5.50 per square foot depending on the coating type, the underlying roof condition, and how much surface prep is required. Coating is not a fix for structural roof failure, and we’ll tell you plainly if your roof needs more than a coating before we quote anything.

Silicone Coatings

Silicone handles ponding water and stands up to Austin’s UV better than acrylic in most flat-roof applications. We apply it over properly prepped surfaces for a seamless, waterproof layer.

Reflective Coatings

Reflective coatings cut surface temperature by as much as 50 degrees in August, which lowers cooling load inside the building. For Austin commercial clients, that’s real money back over the life of the coating.

Free Roof Estimate

Free Roof Estimate is exactly what it sounds like: we inspect your roof, listen to what you’re seeing, and give you a written line-item price for the work you actually need, at no cost. You should get a free estimate when you suspect roof damage, when you’re planning a sale, when insurance has denied a claim you think is valid, or when you simply want a professional’s read on how many years your roof has left. Mercer Roofing Co Austin never charges for an estimate, and the estimate is the price. We don’t start work without a written price, and we don’t change that price once work begins unless we find something structural and you approve the change in writing first. Call (361) 202-8874 and a live person will schedule your free estimate at a time that works for you.

What the Estimate Includes

Line items for materials, labor, tear-off, disposal, and any permit fees. Every number is explained in plain English, not trade shorthand. You’ll know what each dollar buys.

How to Prepare

You don’t need to do anything except be home when we arrive. Our technician will walk the roof, document everything with photos, and review findings with you face to face before leaving.

Brands We Service

We install and repair shingle systems from GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, and Tamko. GAF shingles are the most common product we install on Austin homes: solid availability, consistent quality, and strong warranties. CertainTeed gives our clients who want more profile options and color choices a great path to a custom look without a custom price.

We’ve also done extensive work with Tamko on steep-slope residential applications where the homeowner wants a specific architectural profile. And for tile and premium systems, Boral provides materials that hold up extremely well under Central Texas sun. Whether you have GAF, CertainTeed, Tamko, Boral, or any other make, we can service it. We match materials to the existing roof and follow manufacturer installation specs so the warranty stays intact.

Signs You Need a Pro Right Now

• Water stains on the ceiling or walls. A stain means water is already inside the roof system. By the time it shows on the ceiling, it has saturated insulation and may have been running for weeks. The longer it sits, the more decking and framing damage you’re paying for.
• Missing or broken shingles after a storm. Austin’s spring and fall storm seasons tear shingles loose with regularity. Bare spots expose underlayment and decking to direct rain, which accelerates rot and invites mold into the attic.
• Granules in the gutters. Asphalt shingles shed granules as they age, but a sudden heavy accumulation means the shingle surface is failing. Those granules are the UV protection layer. Once they’re gone, shingles crack and curl within one or two Austin summers.
• Daylight visible through the roof boards. If you can see sunlight from inside the attic, water can get in through the same opening. This is a structural vulnerability, not a cosmetic one, and it needs to be addressed before the next rain event.
• Curling, cracking, or lifting shingles. Heat is the enemy. Austin’s sustained summer temperatures bake shingles until they lose flexibility, curl at the edges, and crack. Once you see curling across a roof slope, the system is in decline, not recovery.

Our Process, Step by Step

1. 1
   You call, a human answers. No phone tree, no callback form, no “leave a message and we’ll get back to you.” You’ll speak with a real person who schedules your free estimate at a time that works for you, including evenings and weekends in Austin.
2. 2
   Technician arrives with photo ID. Before the visit, you receive the technician’s name and photo by text or email. When they arrive, they present a photo ID badge at the door and are in a clean, marked uniform. This is the Threshold Verified standard on every visit, no exceptions.
3. 3
   Full roof assessment with documentation. The technician walks the roof, checks the attic where accessible, and photographs every problem area. You get a written report that shows what’s damaged, what’s sound, and what’s approaching the end of its useful life. We don’t invent work, and we don’t hide problems.
4. 4
   Written line-item estimate. Before any work starts, you get a written price that breaks down materials, labor, tear-off, and any other cost. You approve the full scope in writing. If we open the roof and find structural damage, we stop, show you photos, and get written approval before proceeding.
5. 5
   Work performed, guarantee issued. Every repair includes a written guarantee, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise covers every job. If anything is not right within a year, Mercer makes it right. You get the completed work documented, and a final walkthrough to confirm the roof is exactly what you approved.
