Fast, Reliable Roof Installation Across Richland Hills
A full roof installation on a Richland Hills home typically runs $11,500 to $19,800 for a standard single-story ranch, with standing seam metal starting around $18,000 and tile roof systems beginning near $22,000. We’re talking about the real cost to tear off what’s up there now and put something better in its place, not a ballpark that moves once the crew shows up. Our Roof Installation team knows exactly what’s waiting under the shingles on homes built between the 1950s and 1970s along Glenview Drive, Rufe Snow Drive, and the streets branching off Baker Boulevard. Call (682) 730-3548 and we’ll give you a written price before any work starts, not after.
Why Crestview Roofing Co Fort Worth Is Richland Hills’s Preferred Roof Installation Company
We’ve torn off enough roofs in Richland Hills to know what the older brick-veneer homes hold. Dylan Pace, our owner, has built this company since 2000 on a single idea: you should see the same numbers we see, before we touch your roof. That means a written estimate delivered before work starts, photo documentation before and after, and a live arrival time you can track from your phone. No four-hour windows, no quote that doubles at the door.
What homeowners in Richland Hills tell us they appreciate most is the 365-Day Done Right Promise. It’s a guarantee on every repair, in writing, included with every job. If something we fixed fails within a year, our crew comes back and corrects it. Free second visit. No negotiation, no runaround. That’s the standard, and it’s written into every contract we leave.
The team answering our phones is a live person, 24/7. You call at 7pm on a Tuesday, someone picks up. You text a photo of water coming through the ceiling, someone routes it to a crew lead who knows Richland Hills. That’s the whole reason we coordinate dispatch from the Dallas-Fort Worth office with crews serving Richland Hills locally. You’re not calling an answering service in another state.

Standing Seam Metal Roof in Richland Hills
Standing Seam Metal Roof installation in Richland Hills runs $18,000 to $34,000 on most homes here, depending on roof size, pitch, and how much of the old decking needs replacing. For the right house, it’s the last roof you’ll ever buy. The panels run vertically from ridge to eave with concealed fasteners, so there are no exposed screws backed out by decades of thermal expansion and contraction. That matters in a climate where summer attic temperatures can hit 140 degrees and winter nights dip below freezing.
Why metal works on Richland Hills ranches
The modest roof pitches on mid-century brick-veneer homes mean water moves slowly. A standing seam system sheds water fast and handles the intense summer heat without the granule loss we see on composition shingles after a few hail seasons. We have installed standing seam on homes in the older sections off Glenview Drive where oak canopies keep roofs shaded and damp. Metal doesn’t care about moss the way a shingle does.
What the install involves
We tear off the old roof to the decking, inspect every sheet for rot, replace what’s compromised, lay down high-temp underlayment, and then run your choice of GAF or CertainTeed metal panels with mechanical seaming. Every valley gets ice and water shield before the panels go down. The job on a typical Richland Hills ranch takes 4 to 7 working days depending on roof complexity and weather.
Tile Roof in Richland Hills
Tile Roof installation in Richland Hills starts around $22,000 and can reach $42,000 on larger two-story brick homes near Rufe Snow Drive. Concrete and clay tile look right at home on the Spanish-influenced and ranch styles scattered through the city. The trade-off is weight. Tile systems require the framing below to handle the load, and on 1950s and 1960s homes we sometimes find rafters that were sized for lighter composition shingles and need reinforcement before tile goes down. That’s an honest conversation we have with you before you sign anything.
Weight and framing on older homes
Before we quote tile, we inspect the attic. A 1963 ranch with original 2×6 rafters may need additional support or a different roof system entirely. We won’t put tile on framing that can’t carry it, and we’ll explain exactly what’s required and what it costs. The number we quote is the number you pay.
Decking upgrades we recommend
Under tile, we use a reinforced underlayment system that handles both the weight and the North Texas temperature swings. Proper decking is non-negotiable. If the original decking under three layers of old shingles has been damp for years under oak shade, it gets replaced. You don’t hide a structural problem under a beautiful tile roof.
Trusted Brands We Service in Richland Hills
Crestview Roofing works with GAF, CertainTeed, and Owens Corning because those manufacturers stand behind their materials the way we stand behind our labor. We keep the most common profiles and colors in local supply for Richland Hills jobs, so when a homeowner on Baker Boulevard needs a specific shingle matched, we’re not waiting a week on a truck from another region. Your warranty paper comes from the manufacturer, and our 365-Day Done Right Promise comes from us. Both in writing.
Common Roof Installation Problems We See in Richland Hills Homes
- Rusted galvanized drip edge rotting the decking. Original metal drip edges from the 1950s through the 1970s rust through slowly. Water seeps behind them and rots the decking along the eave line before you ever see a stain on the ceiling.
- Freeze-thaw cycles cracking old flashing. Richland Hills winters bring enough freeze and thaw to pop old chimney and skylight flashing. Water migrates under the underlayment, into soffits and fascia, and by the time you see it, the repair is bigger than a roof patch.
- Hail damage hiding under oak shade. Low-slope roofs with granule loss and small punctures go unnoticed under mature live oaks. A summer downpour hits, and suddenly the ceiling in the north bedroom is wet. We inspect shaded sections closely because that’s where Richland Hills roofs fail first.
- Multiple layers of shingles on original framing. A lot of Richland Hills homes have two or three layers of composition shingles stacked over the original. The framing was never sized for that load. Before we quote anything, we check what’s underneath.

Here’s what we actually see on Richland Hills jobs. A straightforward tear-off and architectural shingle installation on a 1,600 to 2,200 square foot ranch runs $11,500 to $16,500. The same house with a standing seam metal roof runs $18,000 to $28,000. Tile starts around $22,000 and runs up from there.

FAQs About Roof Installation in Richland Hills
Richland Hills building code allows a second shingle layer in some cases, but we won’t install one on a 1960s home without inspecting the framing first. Most of the older brick-veneer homes were built for one layer, and the original decking often has moisture damage from rusted drip edge or leaky galvanized vents. A full tear-off lets us see what’s actually there. Call (682) 730-3548 for an inspection and a written quote either way.
We don’t cut your trees. We will work with a licensed arborist if a branch needs trimming to access the roof safely, and we’ll coordinate that as part of the job. Our crews are used to working under oak canopies, and we cover vulnerable sections with reinforced underlayment during the install. A branch that drops next year won’t punch straight through the way it would on a bare shingle layer.
Ice and water shield isn’t about snow. It’s about wind-driven rain, oak debris damming the valleys, and the freeze-thaw cycles that crack old sealants and let water sit at the valley junctions. The shaded valleys under live oaks stay damp. That membrane prevents slow water intrusion that rots decking over time. We include it on every Richland Hills install.
Moss is green or black and grows in patches on shaded sections, usually the north-facing slopes under live oaks. Hail damage shows as small circular impacts where granules are knocked off, often with bruising you can feel with your thumb. If you see green growth, that’s why the area is wet, and the shingle may still be fine underneath. If you see scattered round bare spots, call us at (682) 730-3548. We’ll tell you what’s moss and what’s hail, and quote only what actually needs fixing.
The drip edge sits above the brick where the roof meets the wall, so replacement usually doesn’t require touching the brick itself. We pull the old metal carefully and slide the new drip edge into place before the new shingles go down. If the decking behind it is rotted, we remove only the damaged section. Our crews have done this on dozens of Richland Hills ranches, and your brick stays intact.
