We called after noticing a small leak on the ceiling. Our roof is 23 years old and I was dreading the "you need a new roof" diagnosis. They came out and I expressed my concern about age and they immediately said that likely wasn't an issue. They said it could be something localized, which was a small $300 repair but that it could also be due to solar panels installed close by. They sent a tech out to make the repair and it ended up being the solar panels. The tech inspected the roof while he was up there, said the roof was old but still rocking it. No charge for their two visits. They could have easily said we needed a new roof, but in the end, they came out twice, alleviated a concern, diagnosed the real problem, and made a recommendation. They'll be my first call again when we do need a roof.

Like so many others leaving reviews here, my experience with Clear Choice was seamless. Drew provided an accurate assessment and helped me liaise with the insurance company. Danielle made scheduling and invoicing super easy. The crew that installed our roof worked incredibly efficiently, did quality work, and cleaned everything up really well. Our new roof looks great and keeps all the water out! Highly recommend!

Steiner Ranch, a master-planned community located in northwest Austin near Lake Travis, experiences a humid subtropical climate with hot summers and mild winters. The area receives an average of 33 inches of rainfall annually, with the heaviest precipitation occurring during the spring and fall months. Steiner Ranch is also prone to severe weather events, such as thunderstorms, hail, and strong winds, which can cause damage to roofing systems. The neighborhood's proximity to the lake and its hilly terrain can result in micro-climates that may slightly differ from other parts of Austin.
Steiner Ranch's humid climate and proximity to Lake Travis can lead to moisture-related problems, such as mold, mildew, and algae growth on roofs. I've seen numerous cases where poor ventilation or drainage has contributed to the premature deterioration of roofing materials in the area.
The neighborhood's exposure to severe weather events can result in damage to roofing materials, including cracked or missing shingles, dented metal roofing, and damaged flashing. As a roofing contractor, I've responded to many calls from Steiner Ranch homeowners seeking repairs after major storms.
The intense Texas sun can cause roofing materials to break down and deteriorate more quickly, leading to issues like cracking, curling, and granule loss. This is a common problem in Steiner Ranch, particularly for older roofs or those with insufficient ventilation.
Many homes in Steiner Ranch feature unique architectural styles and complex roof designs, which can pose challenges for proper installation and maintenance. As a roofing professional, I've worked on several projects in the area that required specialized techniques and materials to ensure a long-lasting, watertight roof.
Given Steiner Ranch's climate and risk of severe weather, I often recommend high-quality asphalt shingles with good wind and impact resistance ratings. Products like the Owens Corning ones we use can provide excellent protection against the elements while enhancing the home's curb appeal.
Metal roofs are becoming increasingly popular in Steiner Ranch due to their durability, energy efficiency, and low maintenance requirements. I've installed several standing seam metal roofs in the area, which have proven to be highly resistant to wind, hail, and fire.
For homeowners looking to achieve a natural, high-end look while maintaining the benefits of modern materials, synthetic shake or slate roofing can be an excellent option. These products, like the ones from Owens Corning that we always use, mimic the appearance of wood shake or natural slate while offering superior durability and resistance to moisture, insects, and fire.
As Steiner Ranch enters its storm season, homeowners should schedule a professional roof inspection to identify any damage that may have occurred over the winter. It's also essential to clean gutters and downspouts to ensure proper drainage during heavy rainfall events.
With temperatures often climbing into the high 90s, Steiner Ranch homeowners should take steps to maximize their roof's energy efficiency. This can include installing reflective coatings or opting for lighter-colored roofing materials to reduce heat absorption and keep the home cooler.
As temperatures begin to cool and rainfall increases, it's crucial to check for any signs of moisture damage or algae growth and address these issues promptly. Homeowners should also trim back any overhanging tree branches to minimize the risk of damage during storms.
While Steiner Ranch winters are generally mild, the occasional cold front can bring strong winds and heavy rainfall. Homeowners should monitor their roofs for any signs of damage and ensure that their attics are properly insulated to prevent heat loss and moisture buildup. If any issues arise, it's best to contact a professional roofing contractor to address them safely.
