Roofing Contractor in Richardson, TX

Richardson is home to the Telecom Corridor, UT Dallas, and some of the best-kept mid-century neighborhoods in North Texas. Much of the city was built from the 1950s through the 1970s, so many roofs here are on their third or fourth set of shingles, often over decking that has never been replaced. Different Roofing serves all of Richardson from our base in The Colony.

Canyon Creek

Canyon Creek is a community of about 2,800 homes between Central Expressway and UT Dallas, running from Campbell Road up to Renner Road. Most homes were built from the late 1960s through the 1970s, many of them long brick ranches near Canyon Creek Country Club. Ranch roofs are wide and fairly low, which means a lot of shingle area exposed to hail and long eaves that catch wind. On homes this age we often find two layers of old shingles, original decking with soft spots, and attic ventilation that was never brought up to date. Every replacement includes a full tear-off to the decking so we can see and fix what is underneath.

Richardson Heights

Richardson Heights is one of the city's original mid-century neighborhoods, with most homes dating from the early 1950s on and some later rebuilds. Many still have original details like hardwood floors and vintage tile, and some sit on pier-and-beam foundations, most of them under big, mature trees. Those trees drop limbs in storms and keep valleys and gutters full of leaves. We check for branch punctures, rotted fascia, and decking damage from slow leaks, and we flash chimneys and low-slope porch roofs correctly so they stay dry.

Recent Storms in Richardson

• May 28, 2024: a severe windstorm hit after sunrise. A weather station at Methodist Richardson measured an 83 mph gust, and large trees were uprooted across the city.
• March 25, 2025: quarter-size hail fell for about four minutes near the George Bush Turnpike and Coit Road, and hail was also reported at UT Dallas.
• April 27, 2026: golf-ball-size hail, about 1.75 inches, was reported in Richardson, with half-dollar-size hail in the neighborhoods just south and east.

Hail that size can crack older, brittle shingles outright and dent vents, gutters, and window screens, and it often damages the soft metal on chimney caps and roof jacks too. A free storm damage inspection documents the damage with photos. If you file a claim, we meet your adjuster on site and walk the roof together.

Choosing a Tougher Roof

After the April 2026 hail, many Richardson homeowners are choosing Class 4 impact-resistant shingles. They are built to resist much larger hail than standard shingles, and some insurers offer a discount for them. Most replacements are done in one day, our crews sweep the yard and street for nails with magnets, and every roof we install carries a lifetime workmanship warranty.

Clay Soil and Foundations

Richardson sits on the heavy Blackland Prairie clay of Dallas and Collin counties. It swells after rain and shrinks in summer, and homes that are 50 to 70 years old have been through a lot of those cycles. On a slab, watch for stair-step cracks in brick, cracks at the corners of doors and windows, and sloping floors. On a pier-and-beam home, watch for bouncy or sagging floors, doors that drift open or closed, and gaps at the baseboards. Our foundation repair team can evaluate either type, and properly sized gutters keep roof runoff away from the foundation.
