Roofing a Rock Home in Tuscola, Texas
When Bunton Roofing Company was called to work on an older rock home in Tuscola, Texas, we knew this would be a project that required both craftsmanship and care. Even though the roof was only 11 years old, recent storm damage led to an insurance claim and a full roof replacement.
Older homes often have unique construction details that can present challenges during roof repair or replacement. Our team was ready to handle those challenges while ensuring the new roof enhanced both protection and curb appeal.
The Project: A Durable Upgrade with CertainTeed Landmark ClimateFlex
For this project, we installed CertainTeed Landmark ClimateFlex IR AR shingles—a premium, impact-resistant (IR) and algae-resistant (AR) shingle designed to perform well in Texas weather.
These shingles are part of CertainTeed’s Lifetime series, offering the perfect combination of strength, beauty, and long-term protection. The homeowners now have a roof that not only looks great on their classic stone home but is also built to withstand hail, wind, and heat across the Big Country.
Solving the Challenges of an Older Home
While the home wasn’t historic, it still had features typical of older construction that required extra attention.
1. Improving Attic Ventilation
We installed new attic ventilation to help regulate attic temperatures and extend the life of the roof. Proper airflow prevents heat buildup, reduces moisture, and improves overall energy efficiency.
2. Upgrading Exhaust and Furnace Vents
We replaced all furnace vents and Broan exhaust vents, ensuring they were up to code and properly integrated with the new roofing system. This helps prevent leaks and improves the home’s ventilation performance.
3. Working with Existing Structure
Older homes can have uneven decking or framing differences compared to modern builds. Our crew inspected the roof structure thoroughly and made the necessary adjustments for a smooth, secure installation.
A Roof That’s Ready for the Texas Climate
The finished result is a beautiful, high-performance roof that fits perfectly with the home’s stone exterior and rustic charm. With the CertainTeed Landmark ClimateFlex system, the homeowners now have a durable, weather-resistant roof backed by a lifetime warranty.
