Windcrest, Texas
Metal costs more up front and outlives two or three shingle roofs. Whether that math works for your Windcrest house depends on how long you are staying, what your insurer allows for impact resistance, and which system gets installed. We will walk you through all three before you commit.
No obligation. No pressure. Most inspections booked within 48 hours.

If you are here, one of these is probably true
Exposed-fastener panel over an unvented deck with no clips costs a fraction of a standing seam system and behaves nothing like it. The word “metal” on a bid tells you almost nothing — the panel profile and the attachment method do.
Panels expand and contract with every hot afternoon. A system fastened straight through the panel instead of on concealed clips works those holes loose over years, which is why so many exposed-fastener roofs leak at the screws long before the metal fails.
Windcrest’s mature tree cover is its best feature and its roofs’ worst enemy. Debris in the valleys holds water exactly where the roof is least able to shed it.
The 1960s and 1970s profiles here shed water slowly. On a low pitch, a detail that would be forgiving on a steep roof becomes a leak.
Overhanging branches take granules off a little at a time, every windy day, for years. By the time it is obvious the mat is already exposed.
North faces under permanent shade stay damp. Algae streaking is the cosmetic symptom; shortened shingle life is the real one.
Metal fails at the fasteners and the details, not the panel. Clips, closures and flashing decide whether you get forty years or fifteen — so those are the lines we put in writing.

Hands down the best ever service I have ever experienced with a San Antonio business! Mike was excellent! Mike explained the process of repair on my roof, followed up with an email addressing who would do the repairs and 3 days later a technician showed up!

Hail country
Windcrest sits on the northeast side, the other half of the area that took the worst of the 12 April 2016 hailstorm — the costliest hail event in Texas history at roughly $1.4 billion in insured losses, with stones up to four and a half inches. That storm and the wider 2016 season, which pushed statewide Texas hail losses past $5 billion, put new roofs on a very large share of the housing out here. Many of those roofs are now approaching a decade old.

Our process
Four steps, the same way every time — so you always know what happens next.
STEP 1
Standing seam or exposed fastener, and the honest answer on whether metal earns its cost given how long you plan to stay in the house.
→ A free inspection and a straight answer
STEP 2
Metal is unforgiving of a wavy deck — every plane telegraphs through the panel. We correct the substrate before anything is ordered.
→ Application filed before the 3:30 pm cut-off for next-day processing
STEP 3
Panels cut to your roof so runs are continuous, with profile, gauge and finish confirmed with you in writing before fabrication.
→ Cleaned up and magnet-swept before we leave
STEP 4
Clips, closures, valleys and penetrations detailed to allow thermal movement — the details that decide whether a metal roof lasts 40 years.
→ We walk the finished roof with you
On the ground
Every part of this metro has its own failure pattern. These are the ones that come up again and again on this side of town.
Heavy mature tree canopy dropping constant debris into valleys and gutters
1960s–1970s ranch profiles with long, low-pitch runs that hold water
Overhanging limbs abrading shingle granules along whole roof planes
Trapped moisture and algae streaking on the shaded north elevations
Windcrest homes from the 1960s and 1970s are on their second or third roof. Under heavy canopy, each of those roofs has aged faster than its rating suggested.
Serving Windcrest
Windcrest sits in Bexar County, and we work across ZIP codes 78239, 78218. Our crews are in Windcrest regularly — we are a San Antonio company, not an out-of-state outfit that showed up after the last hail event.
Windcrest was incorporated in 1959 and much of its housing is 1960s and 1970s ranch-style, often with mature tree cover. Overhanging limbs and older decking are the two things we check first here.
We regularly work in Windcrest Village, Crownhill, Fair Oaks, Midcrown and the surrounding neighbourhoods.
Permits & inspections
Windcrest handles permits through MyGovernmentOnline, and applications must be received by 3:30 pm Monday–Friday to be processed the next business day. The Building Services office is at 8601 Midcrown Drive.

Before you call anyone
Over a solid deck with underlayment — which is how we install it — the difference is far smaller than people expect and much quieter than metal over open purlins on a barn, which is where the reputation comes from.

It can, if the system carries a Class 4 impact rating and your carrier offers the discount. Texas insurers commonly do, but the amount varies. Ask for the discount in writing from your carrier before you count it toward the cost.
Most Windcrest inspections are booked within 48 hours. Emergency and storm response is available 24/7 — if water is actively coming into the house, call (210) 896-3209 rather than filling in the form.
Yes. We document every impact point with photographs, meet your adjuster on the roof, and scope the repair or replacement to what the claim actually covers. Storm work is a large part of what we do in this market.
At Bondoc Roofing, we only hire fully trained, licensed, and insured roofing contractors, so you can rest assured that your roof repairs are being handled by experts. Our roofing technicians will arrive on time, ready to assess your roof, and plan on working on it as soon as possible.
Many neighbourhoods here have architectural rules covering shingle colour and material, and some require approval before work starts. We will tell you whether yours does and work to the approved colour list — it is a common reason a roof has to be redone at the contractor’s expense.
Texas policies generally give you a limited window from the date of loss, and the exact deadline is in your policy — not something a roofer should guess at. The practical advice is not to wait: the longer the gap between the storm and the inspection, the harder the claim is to substantiate.
Roofing runs year-round here. The busiest stretch is the weeks after a spring hail event, when every crew in the metro is booked and out-of-state crews arrive. Late autumn and winter usually mean shorter lead times and the same workmanship.

No obligation, no pressure, and no push toward a replacement you do not need. If a repair is the right call, that is what we will quote.
