Selma, TX Roofing and Exterior Services

A free, photographed roof inspection first. A written recommendation second. Work only if you decide it is worth doing.

Serving Selma

Serving Selma, Start to Finish

Selma is not just inside the service area — it is where the shop is. The address on our paperwork and the town on this page are the same place.

Joshua Holmes personally oversees every job, which is the short version of why the recommendation and the work stay accountable to the same person.

Whether it ends up being a single repair or a full tear-off, the workmanship warranty is the same: 15 years on shingle, 20 on metal, plus free annual inspections for up to ten years.

Getting To You

How We Cover Selma

Our shop is in Selma, so a Selma job is the shortest drive we make. That matters less for the inspection than for everything after it — being this close means coming back out to look at one flashing detail does not turn into a scheduling problem. For reference, Selma sits about 15 miles northeast of San Antonio.

Response time is the part we hold ourselves to regardless of distance: a call gets an inspection coordinated inside 24 hours, and a same-day check when the weather makes it urgent.

Source: NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information, Storm Events Database (hail reports, 2020–2026). Reports are point observations logged by spotters and trained observers, so they show where hail was recorded — not the full footprint of any storm, and not a substitute for looking at your own roof. NOAA also revises recent months, so the last stretch of any year tends to undercount.

Local Detail

Selma at a Glance

Geography and county lines from the U.S. Census Bureau; hail counts from NOAA’s Storm Events Database. We would rather publish four facts we can source than a page of local color we cannot.

Where it is

Selma’s city limits reach into Comal and Guadalupe counties as well as Bexar. Selma is where our own shop is — the address on our paperwork, not a pin on a service-area map.

Jurisdiction

An incorporated city in Bexar County. Permit rules are set locally and they change, so we confirm the current requirement for your job rather than working from memory.

Recorded hail

NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information, Storm Events Database (hail reports, 2020–2026) lists 34 hail reports within about ten miles of Selma across 6 of the last seven years, 6 of them an inch and a half or larger. The largest measured 2.00 inches.

What We Handle

Work We Take On in Selma

Roof Inspections

The inspection is free whether it ends in work or not — buying, selling, or just after a bad night of weather.

What We Check →

Roof Replacement

Tear-off, decking check, new underlayment, and the shingle tier you pick — under a 15-year workmanship warranty, 20 on metal.

Replacement Options →

Hail & Storm Damage

After a storm we photograph and write up the damage so you hold the evidence. What you do with it, including whether to open a claim, stays your decision and your carrier’s.

Storm Damage Help →

Roof Repair

Leaks usually start at a detail rather than out in the open field of a roof — flashing, a boot, a few damaged courses. We trace the actual source instead of blanketing the roof in sealant.

Repair Details →

Gutters

An undersized or badly hung gutter is a foundation problem waiting to happen. We size and install to the roof’s actual runoff.

Storm & Insurance

What Hail Does to a Selma Roof

The expensive version of storm damage is the version nobody looked at. Water gets under the shingle, sits on the decking, and turns a flashing repair into a deck replacement over a couple of seasons.

For Selma specifically: The federal storm record lists 34 hail reports inside a ten-mile radius around Selma across 6 of the last seven years, 6 of them an inch and a half or larger. The largest measured 2.00 inches. Those are reported events near the city, not damage estimates for any particular house — only getting on your roof answers that.

Storm or hail damage often qualifies for an insurance claim. Our part is the roofing part: we document what we find in a written, photographed report and give you our repair estimate. We are not public adjusters and we do not represent you to your insurer — the claim itself stays yours.

Selma Roofing FAQ

Questions We Get From Selma

Answers from Joshua Holmes, Owner — 20+ years in roofing and contracting.

Does Selma actually get enough hail to worry about?

Public storm records log 34 hail reports in the immediate Selma area across 6 of the last seven years, 6 of them an inch and a half or larger. The largest measured 2.00 inches. That is the public record for the area, and it is the reason we treat a post-storm inspection as routine here rather than optional.

Which county is Selma in?

More than one. Selma’s city limits reach into Comal and Guadalupe counties as well as Bexar. It does not change how we inspect or what we charge, but it is worth knowing when paperwork asks.

What does your workmanship warranty actually cover?

It covers our installation — 15 years on shingle roofs and 20 on metal — and it sits on top of whatever the manufacturer covers on the materials themselves.

How soon can you start once I approve the estimate?

It depends on material lead times and the weather more than on our calendar. You get a real start window in writing, not a vague promise.

Can you look at a roof before I buy the house?

Yes, and it is free. A written roof report before closing is a lot cheaper than finding out afterward.

Do you offer financing?

Yes. Synchrony financing is available for larger roofing and exterior projects. Ask during the inspection and we will lay out the options.

Do you do decks and fences as well?

Yes — custom decks, deck repair and staining, and cedar fence work all run through the same shop.

My roof is not leaking. Is there any reason to have it looked at?

Usually yes, after hail or high wind. Damage that has not started leaking yet is easier to address, and easier to document while it is fresh.

Will my insurance cover the repair?

Storm and hail damage often qualifies, but every policy differs. We document what we find with photos and a written report; the decision to file, and the claim itself, stay yours.

Do you clean up afterward?

Yes — cleanup is part of the job, not a line item you get billed for afterwards.

Do you handle siding and gutters too, or only roofs?

Both. Siding, gutters, decks, and fences run through the same shop as the roofing, which is why the transitions at the roofline come out right.

How much does a roof replacement cost?

Age, pitch, material, decking condition, and the extent of the damage all move the number, so we do not quote roofs over the phone. The free inspection produces a written estimate for your actual roof.

Do you install metal roofs on houses, or only commercial?

Both. Residential metal is a real part of what we install, and it carries the longer 20-year workmanship warranty rather than the 15-year shingle term.

Who is actually on my roof?

Joshua Holmes personally oversees every job. This is an owner-operated shop, so the person accountable for the recommendation is the person accountable for the work.

Do you handle chimney flashing?

Yes — the roofing side of a chimney: flashing, crown and cap work, and the siding on a chimney chase.

Do you charge for the written estimate?

No. The inspection and the written estimate are both free, whether or not you go ahead.
