How to judge roofing work

A roof is the one system that protects every other part of a building, which is why the way a contractor inspects matters more than the brochure. A thorough look covers flashing, penetrations, valleys and decking — not just the field of shingles — because that is where water actually finds its way in.

Roof lifespan depends more on installation quality and attic ventilation than on the material alone. Poor ventilation cooks shingles from underneath, and incorrect nailing patterns void many manufacturer warranties. The useful questions to ask any roofer are about process and sequence, not only price.

Typical lifespan ranges by roofing material (industry averages; actual life depends on climate, ventilation and installation quality)
Material	Typical lifespan	Notes
Asphalt shingle	15–30 years	Most common; ventilation strongly affects service life
Metal	40–70 years	Standing seam generally outlasts exposed-fastener panels
Clay or concrete tile	50–100 years	Underlayment usually needs renewal sooner than the tile
Slate	75–150 years	Weight requires adequate framing capacity
Single-ply membrane (flat)	20–30 years	Seams and terminations are the usual failure points

What customers say

Excellent customer service and very respectful workers while performing the roof replacement. Workers took the time to protect landscaping prior to the work started. Worked non-stop from time of arrival and completed the job before leaving in one day. All workers participated in cleaning the area around the house and left no nails or trash anywhere. Excellent pricing and easy to work with to get it scheduled and completed. Will recommend to others looking for roof replacement in the future and Thanks again Zilker Roofing!

Had an excellent experience with Zilker Roofing from start to finish. They came out promptly for a roof inspection, clearly explained what needed to be done, and completed all the necessary repairs efficiently and professionally. What impressed me most was their combination of quality work, competitive pricing, and genuinely easy communication. There was no pressure, no surprises, and they delivered exactly what they promised in the timeframe they quoted. If you need roofing work, I’d definitely recommend reaching out to Zilker Roofing. Great team all around.

Zilker roofing did a great job replacing my roof! The crew showed up at 7am and finished up right around 5pm. The roofers were quick, the project managers (Will and Billy) were thorough and overall Im happy with how everything turned out. They replaced the bad fascia, old decking and repainted with matching color where needed. Everything came out looking really good.❤️
