Frequently Asked Questions

Older roofing shingles and wood shakes typically have a 15- to 30-year lifespan depending on the shingles’ quality, the location and tree cover of your home, and how well the roof was installed originally. Direct sunlight, weather/wind, and poor roof deck ventilation are rough on roofs.
Though the CertainTeed and GAF shingles we use today offer lifetime warranties, they didn’t a decade ago. We tell our customers that 12 years is a good rule of thumb to go by. At that point, check for these warning signs:
  • Curling shingles
  • Loss of the asphalt granulation (looks like bald spots)
  • Evidence of leaking on your ceilings
  • Cracked or discolored interior drywall (painted or wallpapered)
  • Decaying shingles
  • Missing shingles
  • Visible cracks
  • Wind damage
  • Broken or damaged shingles
  • Rusted or missing flashing
If a residential roof is over 15 years old, we recommend you call us out for a look. Sometimes damage isn’t visible to the untrained eye on the ground, and catching it early can avoid expensive interior repairs in the future.

This depends on whether the roofing shingles are past their prime or the original roofing contractor installed part of or the whole roof system improperly. Perfectly good roofing shingles can be repaired if the damage hasn’t affected their integrity. If your roof shingles are old and decaying, it’s economically smarter to replace the entire roof.

Several factors go into determining the cost of your new roof. They include the quality and professionalism of your roofing contractor; the brand, type and grade of roofing shingle you select; the size of your roof and the shape and slope of your roofline.
 
Don’t choose a roofing contractor on cost alone. Price is a factor, but not the only factor you should consider. Quality roofing material and contractor workmanship have value. Hiring the cheapest roofing contractor could cost more in the long run when you consider the cost to repair sub-par roofing and the damage it causes.
 
Get a roofing estimate for an accurate idea. GAL-TECH ROOFING estimates are convenient, fair, no obligation and you don’t have to be home. 

This is a roofing question where aesthetics and finances come into play. Not one roofing shingle manufacturer compensates GAL-TECH ROOFING to promote their products. Having been a roofing contractor for many years, we can recommend without hesitation CertainTeed and GAF asphalt shingles. For the vast majority of homes In Granbury, Hood County and the DFW area, these roofing shingles deliver the best value for the money and look for curb appeal.

If your gutters and downspouts are in good shape, our roofing contractors will work around them. To avoid damaging them, we don’t remove and reinstall them once your roof is complete. If your gutters are in relatively good shape, but need minor repair, we can provide this service too. GAL- TECH ROOFING is a full-service roofing contractor. 

Of course there are variables that affect all roofing projects, like weather, whether or not there is a second layer to remove, and more. But typically, GAL-TECH ROOFING contractors are completely finished with your new roof—from removing the old roof to clean up—in 1-3 days.
