Call (833) 756-5022

Converse sits just northeast of San Antonio along I-10, and our crews are usually on-site in Converse within 45 minutes of a call. We know the 78109 ZIP well: the 1970s-1990s brick-veneer tract homes near JBSA-Randolph, the low-slope patio covers tacked onto back rooms, the original 3-tab shingles that have been baking through Texas summers since the first Bush administration. When a spring hail cell tracks through Bexar County, we’re already familiar with which Converse neighborhoods catch the worst of it. Call (833) 756-5022 and a live person answers - day, night, weekend, or the middle of a storm.

Why Ridgeline Roofing Co. of San Antonio Is Converse’s Preferred Roof Replacement & Installation Company

We’ve been standing behind roofs in this part of Bexar County for over 42 years. Not as storm-chasers who blow through after hail and vanish before the check clears. We’re the crew that trains apprentices into journeymen, that plans to be here in thirty years to honor a warranty.

Our reputation in Converse is built on showing up when we say we will and documenting what we find. Every technician is background-checked and uniformed. Every inspection includes photos taken from your actual roof - not a scary speech in your driveway. Cecil Hargrove, who leads Ridgeline Roofing Co., insists on the same standard for your home that he’d hold for work done at his own mother’s place.

Response time matters in Converse. When spring storm cells track through the northeast San Antonio suburbs, hail damage can turn into interior damage fast - especially in rental properties where tenants may not notice or report a slow leak until the ceiling fails. Our phones are staffed by a live person 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No voicemail trees. No callback windows that leave you watching water spots spread.

We also know the local patterns that out-of-town crews miss. Converse’s persistently high renter-to-owner ratio, tied to military rotation cycles at JBSA-Randolph, means roofs here are routinely neglected. Short-rotation tenants don’t flag small drips. Out-of-state landlords don’t inspect until a full ceiling failure forces the issue. We’ve pulled back enough shingles in Converse to know that hidden deck rot is far more common here than the initial estimate suggests - and we plan for it so you’re not surprised mid-job.

Our Roof Replacement & Installation Services in Converse

Full Roof Replacement

Full roof replacement is what we do most in Converse, and for good reason. The dominant housing stock - 1970s-1990s single-story brick-veneer tract homes built for military families - carries original or single-replacement 3-tab shingles well past their 20-25 year service life. Combined with Bexar County’s position in one of Texas’s most active hail corridors and sustained 100°F+ summers that accelerate UV granule loss, effective shingle lifespan here runs noticeably shorter than manufacturer ratings suggest.

We replaced a storm-damaged roof on a 1980s brick-veneer home in the Kings Crest neighborhood, where the original 3-tab shingles had failed after a spring hail event. We used GAF Timberline HDZ shingles with a Class 4 impact rating, and during the tear-off we discovered rotted OSB decking from a slow leak that had gone unreported by the previous tenant. We replaced 6 sheets of decking and reinforced the patio cover flashing before the next storm threat. That’s the kind of hidden issue we plan for on every Converse job.

Our full replacements include tear-off, decking inspection and replacement as needed, synthetic underlayment, ice and water shield in valleys and penetrations, and your choice of shingles or alternative materials. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and handle disposal. The 90-Day Done Right Promise applies: if it’s not right, we come back and make it right - no paperwork, no arguing.

New Construction Roofing

New construction in Converse is picking up as the area grows, and we install roofs on new builds with the same detail we bring to replacements. Proper valley construction, adequate ventilation per Bexar County code, and wind-rated fastening patterns from day one. For new homes near the flight path or in exposed areas, we specify impact-rated materials and enhanced hip and ridge fastening that exceed minimum code. A roof installed right the first time won’t need our repair services later.

Asphalt Shingle Installation

Asphalt shingles remain the practical choice for most Converse homes, and we install them with full wind-load consideration. We are authorized installers for GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral - no substitutions without your approval. For Converse’s hail corridor exposure, we often recommend architectural or designer shingles with Class 3 or Class 4 impact ratings. The upgrade cost is typically $800-$1,500 over standard architectural shingles, but in a market where hail events strike most years, it’s a calculation many homeowners make once and don’t regret.

We pay particular attention to the low-slope patio covers and add-on room extensions common in Converse’s older stock. These secondary roof planes need proper transition flashing and often benefit from modified bitumen or TPO where the slope drops below 2:12 - a detail missed by crews who treat every surface the same.

Metal Roofing

Metal roofing makes sense for some Converse properties, particularly detached workshops, barns, and homes where long-term durability outweighs first cost. Standing seam systems handle hail better than most materials and shed debris efficiently during the heavy spring rains that track through northeast Bexar County. We install concealed-fastener standing seam and exposed-fastener agricultural panels, properly flashed at all transitions. Metal runs $14,000-$28,000 installed in Converse for a typical home, roughly double asphalt, but with a lifespan that can outlast two shingle roofs.

Tile Roofing

Concrete and clay tile suits the Spanish and Mediterranean-influenced architecture found in some newer Converse subdivisions. Tile is heavy - 850-1,000 pounds per square - and requires verified structural capacity, especially on older homes not originally designed for it. We handle structural assessment, proper underlayment replacement (the real waterproofing layer beneath tile), and individual tile replacement for wind or impact damage. Tile installations in Converse typically range $18,000-$35,000.

Flat Roofing

Flat and low-slope roofing is critical in Converse because of those patio covers and room additions we keep finding. TPO single-ply membrane and modified bitumen are our standard specifications, installed with proper slope correction where ponding occurs. We see a lot of failed DIY flat roof repairs in Converse - caulk and coating over deteriorated substrate - and we fix them properly with full tear-off, insulation assessment, and new membrane. Flat roof replacement on a typical Converse patio cover runs $3,500-$7,500; larger residential low-slope areas range $8,000-$15,000.

Trusted Brands We Service in Converse

We don’t substitute materials without telling you. Ridgeline Roofing Co. is an authorized installer for seven manufacturer lines: GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. For Converse’s climate, we frequently specify Owens Corning Duration or IKO Cambridge architectural shingles with SureNail technology for enhanced wind resistance, and Atlas StormMaster Slate where homeowners want Class 4 impact protection with a dimensional look. We stock common accessories locally and maintain supplier relationships in San Antonio, which means we don’t leave your roof open overnight waiting for drip edge or ridge vent. Fast turnaround matters in spring storm season, and we plan our material orders so work proceeds without weather holds.

Common Roof Replacement & Installation Problems We See in Converse Homes

• Hidden rotted OSB decking in rental properties. Converse’s military-adjacent rental stock means slow leaks go unreported by short-rotation tenants. We routinely find deck replacement needs that weren’t visible from the attic - 4 to 12 sheets is typical, occasionally more. We inspect thoroughly and quote decking replacement upfront when we can, with a clear change-order process if we find more.
• Brittle 3-tab shingles past service life. Original shingles from the 1980s and 1990s have lost granule protection after decades of 100°F+ summers. They crack underfoot during inspection and lift in moderate wind. These roofs don’t need repair; they need replacement before the next storm.
• Failed flashing at low-slope patio cover connections. The add-on room extensions common in Converse’s housing stock create secondary leak points where the main roof meets a lower slope. Inadequate wind-rated flashing at these transitions lets wind-driven rain penetrate during spring storms. We rebuild these connections with proper step flashing, counterflashing, and sealant.
• Insufficient wind uplift resistance. Older Converse homes were built to earlier wind codes. We upgrade fastening patterns - six nails per shingle in wind zones, proper starter strip installation, and reinforced hip and ridge caps - to meet current Bexar County requirements and perform better in actual storms.
