Roofing companies in San Antonio

HomeGuide's state table puts an average Texas roof replacement at $5,600 to $15,800, against $5,700 to $16,000 nationally, or $3 to $6 per square foot installed. Nationally, repairs run $150 to $1,000 for minor problems and $1,000 to $3,000 for moderate ones, and most roofers charge a $150 to $300 minimum call-out. An inspection costs $100 to $400. None of these figures is specific to San Antonio, so use them to sanity-check a quote rather than to set one.

On a claim, the price that matters is the insurer's scope plus your deductible. With replacement cost coverage, TDI says the insurer pays in two checks: a partial payment first, then the rest after repairs start. The insurer can hold back that second check until you show reasonable proof that you paid the deductible, such as a canceled check or card statement. The full Texas guide is on our roofers hub.

The deductible rules for roofing claims

Since September 1, 2019, a Texas contractor paid from an insurance claim may not waive, absorb, rebate or credit your deductible without the insurer's consent. It's a Class B misdemeanor, and TDI says violators face up to a $2,000 fine and six months in jail. Any contract of $1,000 or more expected to be paid from a claim must carry a notice in 12-point bold type saying you must pay the deductible. If a roofer offers to cover it, TDI says to talk to your insurer and report it to the Attorney General's hotline at 800-621-0508.

Storm-chaser roofing crews

After a declared disaster, an out-of-area disaster remediation contractor can't require any payment before work starts, and partial payments must track the work done. TDI suggests at least three bids on company letterhead with a phone number and address, never signing a contract with blanks, and refusing any contract that hands the roofer the value of your insurance proceeds. Texas recorded 902 major hail events in 2025, more than any other state, according to NOAA data cited by Triple-I, so check any roofer who knocks after a storm the same way.

The Legislature's 2025 bill analysis says Texas doesn't currently require a state license for reroofing contractors. A 2025 bill to have TDLR license them (HB 3344) got no further than a House committee report on May 8, 2025. A roofer who mentions a license may mean the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas's voluntary Licensed Roofing Contractor program, which requires industry exams.

The city layer is where you can check something. San Antonio registers Home Improvement Contractors for non-structural remodeling, and Development Services takes permit requests through BuildSA. Ask Development Services whether your reroof needs a permit and whether the roofer needs a city registration, then get both numbers from the roofer. Bexar County isn't one of the 14 first-tier coastal counties, the counties at the center of TDI's coastal windstorm rules, where the WPI-8 certificate comes up for TWIA coverage.

Two local tasks: if you're replacing the roof anyway, ask your insurer about its discount for a UL 2218 Class 4 impact-resistant roof, since each company sets its own. And the city's twice-yearly brush and bulky pickup won't take roofing material, so the contract should say the roofer hauls off the tear-off.

Trees over the roof are the other storm risk: see tree service in San Antonio. The city's other rules are on the San Antonio guide, and you can compare roofers in New Braunfels.
