STX Roofing Experts Serving Southeast Texas for Decades
Choosing a residential roofing contractor in Houston is harder than it should be. Texas doesn’t license roofers at the state level, so anyone with a truck and a ladder can call themselves a roofing company — and after every major storm, plenty of them do.
STX Roofing is the opposite of that. We’re a veteran-owned, family-run company headquartered in Huffman, TX, led by owner Russell Mullin, a U.S. Air Force veteran. We carry GAF Master Elite and CertainTeed ShingleMaster credentials, hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau, and back our residential work with a lifetime labor warranty.
Whether you need a full roof replacement, a repair, or a free inspection before a real estate transaction, we handle the project from the first phone call to final cleanup — and we tell you the truth about what your roof actually needs.

Our Residential Roofing Services in Houston
Roof Replacement
Full residential roof replacements with no surprise change orders. We inspect your decking before we sign anything, and we replace pipe jacks, vents, and flashing as part of the project — we don't reuse old components to lower the bid. Backed by our lifetime labor warranty.
Roof Repair
Leak repair, shingle replacement, flashing fixes, storm damage repair, and pipe-boot replacements. Repairs carry a 2-year warranty — most local contractors offer 30 to 90 days. Same-day response in most cases for emergencies within roughly 25 miles of Huffman.
Free Roof Inspections
On-site inspection with a documented photo report you keep — whether or not you hire us. Useful for storm damage, insurance renewals, or routine roof-age checks. A small inspection fee applies on real estate transactions, and it goes toward any repair work we complete.
Residential Gutters
Custom-fit gutter installation, repair, replacement, and Leaf Blaster Pro gutter guards. Pricing starts at $7.50 per linear foot. We treat gutters as part of your roof system — not a bolt-on — because in Houston's clay soil, poor drainage damages foundations.
Residential Metal Roofing
Standing seam metal, exposed-fastener panels, and stone-coated steel options. Metal reflects heat — meaningful in Houston summers — and stands up to wind better than asphalt.
Storm Damage Repair
Houston roofs take a beating. After Hurricane Beryl in July 2024, the entire region was reassessing roof condition. We document storm damage the way insurance carriers expect to see it — which matters, because our owner Russell spent years as an insurance adjuster before founding STX.
Roof Maintenance
Proactive roof maintenance services that extend roof life and prevent costly repairs.
Soft Washing
Gentle soft washing that safely removes stains, algae, and buildup without damaging your roof.

Why Choose STX for Residential Roofing
A U.S. Air Force veteran runs this company
STX Roofing is led by owner Russell Mullin, a U.S. Air Force veteran. After his military service, Russell moved into insurance work and then roofing — a path that gives him a rare understanding of how claims, coverage, and roofs actually intersect. He sets the standards everyone else on the crew operates by.
Credentialing that actually matters
Texas doesn’t license roofers at the state level. That makes credentialing your only meaningful filter. We hold:
- GAF Master Elite — held by roughly 2% of roofing contractors nationally
- CertainTeed Shingle Master
- A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau
- Bondable to $750,000
- Labor backed by third-party Directorii.com
Lifetime labor warranty on residential roofs
Most Houston roofers warranty their labor for 5 to 10 years. Ours is lifetime. If we install something, we stand behind it for as long as you own the home.
We don’t reuse old components to lower the bid
Houston has roughly 50 inches of rainfall a year, which means hidden decking rot is endemic. A common pattern in this market is a contractor coming in with a low bid, then adding thousands in change orders once the tear-off starts. We inspect your decking before we sign anything, and we replace pipe jacks, vents, and flashing as part of every replacement. What’s in the estimate is what you pay.
Insurance experience most contractors don’t have
Texas insurance carriers have changed the rules on homeowners hard in the past few years — RCV policies shifting to ACV, deductibles climbing to 1–2% of the dwelling value, and roof-age non-renewals at the 15-year mark. Russell’s adjusting background means we can read your policy and tell you what’s actually covered, not what we wish was covered. We don’t waive deductibles either — that’s been illegal in Texas since 2019 under HB 2102, and any contractor who offers to is breaking the law.

Residential Roofing Materials We Install
Most Houston homes are asphalt shingle, and that’s the bulk of what we install. We also handle metal, tile, slate, and synthetic composites. The right material depends on the home’s design, your budget, and how long you plan to be there.
Asphalt shingles
Architectural and 3-tab options. We’re a GAF Master Elite contractor, so we can install GAF’s strongest shingle systems with the longest warranties. Impact-resistant Class 4 shingles are worth considering in Houston — some carriers discount premiums for them.
Metal roofing
Standing seam, exposed-fastener, and stone-coated steel. Reflects heat, handles wind, lasts 40+ years.
Tile and slate
Clay or concrete tile and natural slate for the right architectural fit. Heavier roofing systems require structural verification — we’ll tell you upfront if your existing structure supports the load.
Synthetic and composite
DaVinci, Brava, and similar products. Look of slate or shake with lower weight and modern impact ratings.
How We Work
- Free initial inspection. We come out, look at the roof, document what we find with photos. You get the report whether or not you hire us.
- Detailed written estimate. Every component itemized — no vague ‘roof replacement’ lump sums, no language hiding change orders.
- Project scheduling. Most residential replacements complete in one day. Complex layouts may take two.
- Insurance coordination when applicable. We attend the adjuster meeting, document supplements properly, then transition the project to the retail side once the claim is settled.
- Clean job site. Crews clean as they go. Final magnetic sweep for nails. No debris left behind.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to replace a roof in Houston?
A typical Houston residential replacement runs roughly $7,000 to $13,000 depending on the home’s square footage, roof complexity, and the materials you choose. We give you a detailed written estimate before we start so there are no surprise change orders mid-project.
What’s the best roofing material for Houston?
Architectural asphalt shingles remain the best fit for most Houston homes — they balance cost, durability, and storm performance. Class 4 impact-resistant shingles are worth considering, since some Texas insurance carriers discount premiums for them. Metal is the next step up for longevity and heat reflection.
How long does a roof last in Houston?
Most asphalt shingle roofs in Houston last 15 to 20 years. Heat, humidity, and storm exposure cut into the manufacturer’s stated lifespan. Texas insurance carriers commonly reassess policies once a roof passes 15 years, which is one reason planning ahead matters.
Are roof inspections free?
Yes, for most situations — including storm-damage checks, insurance renewal documentation, and homeowner peace-of-mind inspections. We charge a small fee for inspections tied to real estate transactions, and that fee goes toward any repair work we complete.
Does Texas require a license to be a roofer?
No. Texas doesn’t license roofers at the state level. That’s why credentialing matters — GAF Master Elite, CertainTeed Shingle Master, BBB accreditation, and bond status are the meaningful filters when you’re vetting a contractor.
Do you work with insurance claims?
Yes. We use a hybrid approach: we do the initial inspection, attend the adjuster meeting, then transition to the retail side once your claim is settled. Russell, our owner, spent years as an insurance adjuster — so we read policies for what they actually say. We do not waive deductibles (that’s illegal in Texas).
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most residential replacements complete in one day. Larger or more complex homes may take two. Weather can push the schedule, and we’ll tell you the moment we know it has to move.
