Local roofing considerations

Heat and humidity

Friendswood summers are long and hot, and humidity stays high for much of the year. Heat speeds up the aging of asphalt shingles, and a poorly ventilated attic makes it worse. Humidity also encourages the dark algae streaks often seen on shingle roofs in the region. We pay close attention to attic ventilation and material choice for that reason.

Heavy rain and drainage

Clear Creek runs through Friendswood, and the area is known for heavy rain events. Intense rainfall tests flashing, valleys and gutters. Making sure water leaves the roof quickly and is carried away from the house is a key part of every repair and replacement.

Storms and hurricane season

Friendswood is close enough to the Gulf that strong thunderstorms and tropical systems are a regular concern during the Atlantic hurricane season, from June 1 to November 30. Wind resistance, secure edges and protecting an open roof during a project all matter here. See our storm damage roof repair page for what to do after severe weather.

Two counties, one city

Friendswood lies in both Galveston County and Harris County. Homes on the Galveston County side are within the Texas Department of Insurance designated catastrophe area for windstorm insurance. If your home is insured, or might be insured, through the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association (TWIA), roofing work may require a windstorm inspection. Check with your insurer or agent before work begins, and see the Texas Department of Insurance windstorm information.

Permits and HOAs

Permit requirements for roofing work are set locally. Contact the City of Friendswood with permit questions. Many Friendswood neighborhoods have homeowners associations, which may have rules about roofing materials and colors, so check yours before choosing a new roof.
