Dallas County, TX
Roofing Company in Lakewood, Dallas, TX
Lakewood, near White Rock Lake in East Dallas, is full of 1920s to 1940s Tudors, Spanish Eclectic homes and Craftsman bungalows. These roofs are steep, cut up with gables and chimneys, and often sit on original plank decking under several old layers. Doing them right means respecting the architecture as much as keeping the water out.
Storm History
East Dallas gets the same spring hail and severe thunderstorms as the rest of the city, and Lakewood's mature trees add wind-thrown limbs to every storm. Older flashing around chimneys and parapets is where most Lakewood leaks start. We inspect and photograph every slope, chimney and wall so you know exactly what was damaged.

How to make a Lakewood roof last
- Ask for a full tear-off; layering over old roofs hides rotten decking.
- Keep original details like tile accents and copper where you can; they add value.
- Have chimney flashing checked every few years; it fails before the shingles do.
- Confirm conservation district rules before choosing a shingle color or metal.
