- Coppell
Coppell sits right next to DFW International Airport, between the Elm Fork of the Trinity River and Grapevine. Most of its neighborhoods were built in the 1980s and 1990s, so a lot of Coppell roofs are 25 to 35 years into their life, many on their second set of shingles. Storms that cross Tarrant County often reach Coppell next. Different Roofing serves all of Coppell from our base in The Colony.

Riverchase is built around the Riverchase Golf Club, and many homes back up to the fairways. Most were built in the mid-1990s. They are typically brick, with front-facing gables, tall entries, arched windows, and two-story layouts with game rooms upstairs. Those tall front gables and steep pitches make for a complex roof with plenty of valleys and wall flashing, and a brick home this size usually has a large attic that needs good ventilation to keep the shingles from baking in summer.
Homes on the course also catch the occasional stray golf ball. One strike rarely causes a leak, but repeat hits can crack shingles and dent vents and gutters, and that damage can be mistaken for hail. During an inspection we separate the two, check the valleys and wall flashing, and look at the decking from the attic on homes with an original or second roof. Riverchase homes from this era often have roof vents and pipe boots that are past their service life, even when the shingles look fine from the street.
Wind like the May 2024 storm can break the seal strips on shingles without blowing them off, which leaves them loose for the next storm. A free storm damage inspection documents both wind and hail damage with photos. If you file a claim, we meet your adjuster on site and walk the roof together.
When an older Coppell roof needs replacing, many homeowners choose Class 4 impact-resistant shingles. They are built to resist much larger hail than standard shingles, and some insurers offer a discount for them. We finish most roof replacements in one day, run a magnetic sweep for nails before we leave, and back every roof we install with a lifetime workmanship warranty.
Coppell is built on expansive clay, and the low ground along the Elm Fork of the Trinity River holds water after heavy rain. When that clay gets wet it swells, and during a hot, dry summer it shrinks and cracks. Homes from the 1980s and 1990s have been through decades of that cycle. Watch for stair-step cracks in brick, cracks running from the corners of windows and doors, sloping floors, doors that will not latch, and gaps between the brick and window frames. Our foundation repair team can evaluate the slab, and properly sized gutters keep roof runoff away from the foundation.
