Roofing considerations for Alamo Heights homes
Older homes, steeper roofs
Tudor Revival, Spanish Eclectic, and Craftsman homes often have steep pitches, multiple gables, and dormers. Older homes can also have plank decking instead of plywood, which affects how a new roof is installed. We check the structure underneath before recommending a plan.
Chimneys and flashing
Masonry chimneys, parapet walls, and stucco transitions are among the most common leak sources on older homes. Often the fix is new flashing, not a new roof, which is why a careful inspection comes first.
Mature trees
Big pecans and live oaks shade many lots. That shade helps with cooling, but it also drops debris and holds moisture on roofs and in gutters. Keeping limbs trimmed back and gutters clear protects both the roof and the fascia.
City review
Alamo Heights has its own permitting and architectural review processes. We’ll confirm what applies to your project before work begins.
Typical Alamo Heights roofs
You’ll see clay tile on Spanish-style homes, architectural shingles on Tudor and Craftsman houses, and low-slope sections on additions and porches. We work on pitched, flat, and modified roofs, so mixed-roof homes are no problem.

Alamo Heights roofing FAQs
Do you work on older homes in Alamo Heights?
Yes. We regularly see older homes with steep roofs, tile, chimneys, and plank decking, and we inspect the whole system before recommending repair or replacement.
Can a leak around my chimney be fixed without a new roof?
Often, yes. Many chimney leaks come from failed flashing or masonry issues that can be repaired on their own. An inspection will tell you which it is.
