Roofing Contractor in Lubbock, TX

What NWS Lubbock has recorded on the South Plains

Lubbock roofs wear down under a string of storms, and the National Weather Service office in Lubbock has documented the big ones:

• April 29, 2012: baseball-size hail in southern Lubbock County damaged hundreds of mobile homes.
• May 19, 2018: baseball-size and larger hail hit the southwest side.
• June 24, 2019: quarter to golf-ball hail around Lubbock, with baseball to softball-size stones in Slaton, Wilson and east of New Deal.
• May 20, 2020: large hail damaged many roofs, vehicles and plants.
• June 23, 2023: golf-ball to baseball-size hail in south Lubbock, plus a grapefruit-size stone reported near 98th Street & Upland Avenue (NWS Lubbock storm summary).
• June 5, 2025: a supercell produced significant wind-driven hail across the western and central South Plains.

Severe hail on the South Plains is most common in spring and early summer, but damaging storms have hit as late as October. Our hail damage roof repair in Lubbock starts with a photo-documented inspection, and the guide to signs of hail damage on a roof shows what you can spot from the ground.

Haboobs, wind and sun at 3,250 feet

On Oct 17, 2011, a haboob swept the South Plains. Visibility dropped near zero in Lubbock, power went out, and trees and structures were damaged, with gusts measured near 76 mph by NWS staff. Wind like that breaks shingle seals and packs grit under flashing.

The sun works more slowly. At about 3,250 feet, it dries asphalt shingles out year after year, which is why how long a roof lasts in West Texas has a different answer here than in milder places.

Do you need a permit to replace a roof in Lubbock?

Yes. The City of Lubbock requires a roofing permit to tear off and replace shingles, lists a $75 residential roofing permit fee, and requires a final inspection once the work is done. If the framing or roof pitch changes, a separate remodeling permit applies, so confirm the scope before tear-off begins.

A contractor working for a homeowner must also be registered with the City, which requires a $20,000 compliance bond or $100,000 in general liability insurance. Ask to see that registration before you sign. The rules are posted on the City of Lubbock residential permitting page.

Which parts of Lubbock does Texas Roof Pros cover?

Texas Roof Pros covers homes across Lubbock, from Tech Terrace, Maxey Park, Wheelock & Monterey and Kelsey Park to the newer neighborhoods south and southwest of Loop 289 toward 114th Street. Call between 7 AM and 7 PM CT, seven days a week, and a locally owned roofer works to respond the same day.

Established neighborhoods near Texas Tech, such as Tech Terrace, have mature trees over many roofs, so we look for limb scrapes and debris-packed valleys. Farther south, around 98th Street and Upland Avenue and out toward 114th Street, homes sit where NWS logged the 2018 and 2023 hail.
