Most roofing calls start with a homeowner who already suspects something and wants a straight answer about it. A stain on a ceiling, a shingle in the yard after a storm, a roof that came with the house and has never been checked. What happens next should not depend on what is easiest to sell.
Petrus works across the greater Houston area on residential roofs first and foremost, with commercial work alongside it. Every job starts the same way: a free inspection, documented in detail, followed by a plain-language explanation of what the roof needs. Sometimes that is a repair. Sometimes it is a replacement. Sometimes it is nothing at all for another few years, and we will say so.
Six services cover almost everything a Houston-area roof asks for. Each one has its own page with the detail, and if you are not sure which one you need, the inspection sorts that out first.
A free 7-point inspection covering the roof, the attic, and the places where water gets in without announcing itself, documented with more than 50 photos and videos. You see what we see, in plain language, along with an honest recommendation.

For roofs that have reached the end rather than developed a problem. Age, storm damage across several slopes, or leaks that keep reappearing somewhere new all point the same direction, and a full replacement is the honest answer when patching has stopped being economical.

The majority of what we see is repairable. Failed flashing, worn valleys, lifted or missing shingles, brittle pipe boots, damage from a limb. We find where water is actually entering rather than where the stain appeared, and fix that.

Roofs fail gradually and quietly, which is what makes routine attention worth the money. Maintenance clears debris out of valleys and gutters, keeps sealant and flashing sound, and finds small problems while they are still cheap.

When a storm opens up a roof, the priority is stopping water getting into the house. We tarp the exposed area quickly so the damage is contained while the permanent repair gets planned properly.

Petrus handles commercial roofs as well as homes, from shops and offices to light industrial buildings. Commercial systems and schedules work differently enough to deserve their own explanation.

Houston roofs work in heat, humidity, hail, and hurricane-season wind, often under heavy tree cover. Three systems handle that well, and which one suits your house depends on its structure, its roofline, and what you want out of the next twenty years.
Asphalt shingles cover most homes across the region, and modern architectural shingles carry solid wind ratings in a wide range of colors and prices. They work around complicated rooflines without difficulty. On a shingle roof the underlayment, ventilation, and flashing decide how long it lasts, which is why installation quality matters more than the brand on the bundle.

Metal handles wind and hail better than shingle, sheds debris instead of holding it, and reflects a good deal of summer heat. Properly installed, it outlasts a shingle roof by a wide margin. It suits simpler roof geometry best, so it is worth a conversation before it is worth a quote.

Tile gives a distinctive roofline and a very long service life, and it turns up on larger homes across the area. Weight is the deciding factor, so the question is always whether the structure underneath can carry it before anything else gets discussed.



Roofs rarely fail at a convenient moment, and paying for one over time is often what makes the right repair possible now instead of next year. Petrus will take you through the financing options available so you can pick something that fits your budget.


Materials come with manufacturer warranties. The installation is on us, and that is the part most homeowners have no way to judge from the ground. Alongside the applicable manufacturer warranties, every roof Petrus installs or repairs carries our Rock-Solid, 5-Year Workmanship Warranty.
A roof can look sound from the driveway and be failing at three flashing points. It can also look rough and have years left in it. Neither judgment can be made from the ground, which is why we do not price work before someone has been up there.
The inspection covers the whole system rather than the complaint: shingles, flashing, underlayment, decking, ventilation, gutters, and how tree cover is affecting all of it. Everything gets photographed, so the conversation afterwards is about evidence rather than opinion. If the roof needs less than you feared, that is what the report will say. Roofing companies that make their money on volume have an incentive to find replacements everywhere they look, and we would rather be the company you call back in five years.
Age, how widespread the damage is, and whether leaks keep appearing in new places. One failed area on an otherwise sound roof is a repair. Worn shingles across several slopes, repeated leaks in different spots, or soft decking point toward replacement. The inspection is what settles it, and you get photographs either way.
Yes. The 7-point inspection covers your roof, attic, and more, documented with over 50 photos and videos, at no cost and with no obligation. You get our honest recommendation: repair, replacement, or no action needed.
Most residential roofs are a single-day job once materials are on site, though larger or more complicated rooflines can run longer. We will tell you what to expect for your specific roof before work starts, including what happens if weather interrupts.
We inspect the roof, document what we find with photographs and video, and explain the damage in plain language so you have a clear record. Your insurer decides coverage. What we can do is make sure the condition of the roof is thoroughly documented.
In addition to applicable manufacturer warranties, Petrus offers a Rock-Solid, 5-Year Workmanship Warranty on our roofing work. We stand behind the finished roof.
Yes. A new roof is a serious investment, and we will walk you through the available financing options so you can pick a plan that fits your budget.
Petrus works throughout the greater Houston area from an office at 5447 FM 1488 in Magnolia, which puts us close to the Montgomery County and northwest Houston markets where most of our work is. Each area we cover has its own page with local detail, because a roof in Katy is dealing with different conditions than one in Montgomery.
North and west of Houston we work across The Woodlands, Conroe, Magnolia, Spring, Tomball, and Cypress. South and west we cover Sugar Land and the surrounding communities. The full list is on our service areas page.
