Roofing Contractor in Hickory Creek, TX

Hickory Creek is one of the four Lake Cities on the west shore of Lewisville Lake, along with Lake Dallas, Corinth and Shady Shores. It incorporated in 1963 with just 219 residents and stayed small for decades: 1,893 people in 1990 and 2,078 in 2000. Growth picked up after the Lake Lewisville Toll Bridge opened and the DCTA A-train started running in 2011, and the town reached 4,718 people in 2020. It has been a Tree City USA since 2008, which tells you something about how many big trees hang over its roofs. Different Roofing is based in The Colony, and inspections in Hickory Creek are free.

Our Work in Hickory Creek: Water’s Edge Drive

Our most recent Hickory Creek job is on Water’s Edge Drive, along the Lewisville Lake shoreline. We installed two new turbine vents, repaired the roof and put in new gutters. Not every roof needs replacing: a targeted repair with better attic ventilation can add years to a roof that is otherwise in good shape, and it is the kind of work a lot of lakeside homes here need after a windy spring.

Hickory Creek Neighborhoods and Home Types

  • Shore Haven, Lakeview and Glenview: some of the town's earlier subdivisions, close to the lake, with homes that have been through decades of North Texas storms.
  • Harbor Grove Estates: a neighborhood of larger lots and homes near the water.
  • Newer infill streets: homes built as the town more than doubled after 2000, many now reaching the age when a first roof starts to wear out.

With the town growing from 219 people to almost 4,700, Hickory Creek has a real mix of roof ages. An older lakeside home may be on its third roof, while a house built in the last 15 years may still have the builder's original shingles.

HOAs and Older Streets

Some Hickory Creek neighborhoods have an HOA and some of the older streets do not. Where there is one, we follow its rules on shingle style and color and bring samples so you can get approval before work starts. Where there is not, we help you pick a shingle and color that suits the house.

Lewisville Lake and Hickory Creek's Trees

Homes near the lake take wind straight off open water, and Hickory Creek Park and the Corps of Engineers land along the shore leave a lot of open space for a gust to build. Inland, the tall oaks the town is known for shade roofs, hold moisture on the shingles and drop limbs in storms. Both show up in our inspections here: lifted shingles and worn ridge caps near the water, and limb strikes, granule loss and clogged gutters under the trees.

Our free inspection documents every slope with photos, and if there is storm damage we meet your adjuster on the roof. Your insurance company decides what is covered. See our storm and hail damage repair page for what we look for, or our DFW hail season guide.

Foundation Repair in Hickory Creek

The clay soil around Lewisville Lake swells when it is wet and pulls back in a dry summer, and big trees make it worse by drawing water out of the ground near the slab. On older Hickory Creek homes that can show up as stair-step cracks in brick, doors that drag, cracks in the garage floor or gaps where the trim meets the wall. We do foundation repair with pressed or poured concrete pilings, steel push piers and helical piers. The inspection is free, and the piers we install carry a lifetime warranty.

Solar in Hickory Creek

Shade is the first question for solar in Hickory Creek, since so many roofs sit under mature trees. A south- or west-facing slope with open sky is the best candidate. Parts of Denton County are served by electric co-ops instead of Oncor, and co-ops set their own buyback rules, so check which one you are on before you compare plans. Different Roofing handles solar installation with our solar partner, and if the roof is near the end of its life we replace it first. Financing is available.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hickory Creek

  • My Hickory Creek home is near Lewisville Lake. Does lake wind change what we should look for?

    Yes. Wind off open water lifts shingle edges and wears ridge caps faster. We check those first after a storm, and every roof we install gets a high-profile ridge cap.

  • Big trees hang over my roof. Can you still replace it?

    Yes. We protect landscaping under the drip line and clean up limbs and debris. Trimming branches back from the roof before or after the job helps the new shingles last longer and keeps gutters clear.

  • My roof is from the 1990s. Should I repair it or replace it?

    It depends on what the inspection finds. A few damaged shingles on a sound roof can be repaired, but widespread granule loss, brittle shingles or soft decking usually mean replacement makes more sense. We show you photos either way.

  • Do you work in all of the Lake Cities?

    Yes. We work in Hickory Creek, Lake Dallas, Corinth and Shady Shores, and the inspection is free in all of them.

  • How do I choose a roofer in Hickory Creek after a storm?

    Pick a local company that is licensed and insured, gives you a written estimate, and documents the damage with photos. We meet your adjuster on the roof, and your insurance company decides what is covered.
