Fast, Documented, and Done Right the First Time.
Ark repairs residential roofing systems across every material type we install. That includes asphalt shingles, metal panels, synthetic slate and shake, and Spanish-style barrel tile.
Repair work falls into three categories. Storm damage from hail, wind, and debris impact. Animal and rodent damage to flashing, fascia, and decking. And leak repair from failed flashing, worn underlayment, or isolated shingle failure.
Not every roof problem requires a full replacement. Not every repair holds long enough to be worth the cost. An ArkCertified inspection identifies exactly what’s there so the recommendation is based on evidence, not a sales target.
The honest answer depends on three things: the age of the roof, the extent of the damage, and the condition of the underlying decking.
A repair makes sense when the damage is isolated, the roof is relatively young, and the decking beneath the affected area is sound. Patching a few shingles after a wind event on a five-year-old roof with solid decking is a legitimate fix.
A replacement makes sense when the damage is widespread, the roof has reached or exceeded its expected lifespan, or the decking has been compromised by moisture intrusion. Repairing the surface of a fifteen-year-old asphalt roof with soft decking is not a fix. It is a delay.
The contractors who push repair on roofs that need replacement are doing their customers a disservice. So are the contractors who push replacement on roofs that need repair. Ark’s recommendation starts with what the inspection actually shows, not what generates the larger ticket.
Every repair project starts with a documented inspection of the affected area and surrounding roof surface. You receive the full report before any repair recommendation is made.
What Is An ArkCertified Inspection? →Once the scope is confirmed, Ark schedules and completes the repair to the same installation standard as a full replacement. No shortcuts because it’s a smaller job.
See Our Process →The September 24, 2023 hailstorm caused an estimated $600 million in combined damage across Travis and Williamson Counties according to the National Weather Service. (Source) A significant portion of that damage started as minor hail hits that went uninspected and unrepaired before the next storm event compounded them.
In Central Texas, the window between a repairable roof and a replacement-worthy one closes faster than most homeowners expect. A compromised shingle seal lets moisture into the decking. Soft decking spreads. By the time a leak appears on the ceiling, the repair has already become a replacement conversation.
The other factor is storm chasers. After every major hail event in Williamson County, out-of-state contractors flood the market offering fast assessments and faster repairs. Inaccurate documentation and substandard work follow homeowners through every subsequent insurance interaction. The repair that costs less today can cost significantly more when the next storm arrives and the claim history catches up.
Ark not only replaced my roof, they totally redone my home's exterior. The best-looking work I have ever had done. Nice to have a local Georgetown business right up the road.
The company president is personally committed to excellence from start to finish. He conducted a detailed survey, including an inspection from inside the attic and a drone overview. One of the best experiences we have ever had with a contractor.
Luke and his team were very professional and good at communicating throughout the whole process. They took care of everything and made the work pretty painless. Don't hesitate to give them a chance.
