Why choose us
Why Austin homeowners call Nighthawk for roof replacement
Local crews, proven materials, and a standard we will not lower for speed or price.
Built on Central Texas ground
We have spent years working the neighborhoods between San Marcos and Temple. That means we know the hail tracks, the soil, the wind corridors, and the HOA rules on your street before we ever set foot on the property. When we quote roof replacement work, it is based on what actually happens to homes here, not a generic chart.
Materials we trust
We install products we would put on our own houses. Every material on this list is chosen because it holds up to Texas sun, hail, and wind, and because the manufacturer stands behind it with a real warranty.
- GAF & Owens Corning architectural shingles
- Class 4 impact-rated shingles
- 24-gauge standing-seam metal
- Synthetic underlayment & ice-and-water shield
Committed to your property
The crew that inspects your roof replacement is the same crew that does the work. No subcontractor handoff, no middleman markup. We protect your landscaping, clean the site daily, and stand behind the finished job. If something is not right, you call us, not a 1-800 number.
Financing options
Managing the cost of your roof replacement project
A roof or exterior replacement is a real investment. We make sure the payment side is not the thing that keeps you up at night.
Flexible monthly plans
Spread the cost of your project across manageable monthly payments instead of paying it all at once. We work with financing partners who understand that a roof or siding job is not a planned expense, it is usually an urgent one. Plans range from short-term payoff to longer terms that keep your monthly number low.
Don't wait for an insurance check
If your adjuster is still reviewing the claim or the payout is weeks out, financing lets us get the work started now. You stop the leak, secure the property, and pay the balance down once your insurance funds arrive. No tarp on your roof for a month waiting on paperwork.
Simple, upfront terms
Your estimator walks you through the financing application during the inspection, right at your kitchen table. No obligation, no hard credit pull until you decide to move forward. You see the rate, the term, and the monthly payment before you sign anything.
Works with insurance deductibles
Many homeowners use financing to cover their deductible portion of a storm claim, so the job does not stall on out-of-pocket cost. We coordinate the scope, the claim, and the financing so you understand exactly what insurance covers and what your plan handles.
Full tear-off and deck inspection
We strip every old shingle and underlayment down to the wood deck, then walk every sheet looking for soft spots, rot, and previous patch jobs that are hiding damage. Rotted decking gets replaced before anything goes back on. A new roof over a bad deck is a warranty claim waiting to happen.
New underlayment and ice-and-water shield
Synthetic underlayment across the whole roof, with ice-and-water shield in the valleys and around penetrations where water is most likely to find a way in. This is the layer that saves your ceiling when a shingle gets lifted by a storm you are not home for.
New flashing, drip edge, and pipe boots
We replace step flashing at walls and chimneys, valley metal, drip edge at the eaves and rakes, and every pipe boot. Reusing old flashing on a new roof is the most common reason a replacement leaks within the first year. We do not do it.
GAF and Owens Corning shingle installation
Architectural shingles installed to manufacturer spec with the right nail pattern, sealant strip, and starter course. Class 4 impact-rated shingles available for hail resistance and insurance premium discounts. Every replacement is eligible for the full manufacturer system warranty when we install all the components.
Standing-seam metal roof replacement
For homeowners who want a roof that outlasts everything else on the block, we install 24-gauge standing-seam metal with hidden fasteners and a 40-year finish warranty. No exposed screws to back out, no granules to lose, and it sheds hail that would bruise a shingle.
Questions
Roof Replacement FAQ
How much does a roof replacement cost in Austin?
A full shingle replacement on a typical Austin single-family home runs between $8,000 and $18,000 depending on roof size, pitch, number of layers to tear off, and the shingle you choose. Standing-seam metal runs more. We give you a fixed quote after a free inspection, no ranges that change later.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most single-family homes are torn off and re-roofed in one to two days, weather permitting. Larger or steeper roofs can take three. We protect your landscaping and clean up with a magnet sweep for nails before we call it done.
Do I need a roof replacement or can I repair it?
If your shingles are curling, losing granules into the gutters, or soft underfoot across multiple slopes, replacement is the right call. If the damage is from a single storm or isolated to one area, a repair may be enough. We inspect for free and tell you straight either way.
What shingles do you recommend for Austin?
GAF Timberline HDZ and Owens Corning Duration are the two most popular architectural shingles in Central Texas. Both perform well in our heat and wind. If hail is your priority, we recommend Class 4 impact-rated shingles, which can also lower your insurance premium. We will bring samples to your inspection.
Will my insurance pay for a roof replacement?
If your roof has storm or hail damage, your homeowner's insurance may cover the replacement minus your deductible. We document the damage with dated drone photos, meet your adjuster on site, and build the scope to match the approved loss. You pay your deductible and nothing beyond the agreed work.
Do you offer financing for roof replacement?
Yes. We offer financing plans so you can replace a failing roof now instead of waiting for the next storm to make it worse. Ask your estimator about monthly payment options during your free inspection.
