Katy Townsite
RTU – Houston’s First Choice for Dependable Roofing & Solar Solutions

Last month, I helped a family in Katy Townsite whose 1950s home took a beating from quarter-sized hail. What looked like minor damage from the ground turned out to be significant granule loss and micro-fractures that would’ve led to major leaks within a year. Like many homeowners around here, they were worried about choosing the wrong contractor and losing their hard-earned money on such a major investment. That’s why families in this area need a roofing contractor who understands both these older homes and the stress that comes with protecting your family’s safety.
Roofing Technologies Unlimited has been serving Katy Townsite for over five years, and we’ve learned that these older homes require a different approach than the newer construction you’ll find in places like Cinco Ranch or Grand Lakes.
Katy Townsite Homes Need Expert Care
Katy Townsite sits in the heart of what locals call “Old Town Katy,” near the historic MKT Railroad Depot and Heritage Park. Most homes here were built around the 1950s era. These homes typically range from about 1,200 to 1,500 square feet and have plenty of character, but their roofing systems weren’t designed for the severe weather we see today.
I’ve noticed that many properties in this area show their age when it comes to roofing. The neighborhood’s location in historic Katy means these homes have weathered decades of Gulf Coast humidity, sudden thunderstorms, and increasingly intense hail events. The smaller lots and mature trees also create unique drainage challenges that newer developments in areas like Westgreen don’t typically face.
When it comes to roofing materials, homeowners here often feel overwhelmed by all the choices. Should you stick with traditional architectural shingles to match your neighbors, or upgrade to impact-resistant options? We help families understand the differences between asphalt shingles, modified bitumen roofing for any flat areas, and newer materials designed specifically for Texas weather patterns.
Emergency Roofing Services You Need
As your trusted roofing contractor in Katy Townsite, we provide 24/7 emergency roofing services because storms don’t wait for business hours. We often help homeowners with complete roof replacement when their aging systems finally give way to time and weather. Our emergency roof repairs are especially common after the hail storms that seem to target this part of Fort Bend County every few years.
Our roof inspection services have saved several families from major headaches and unexpected expenses. We frequently discover storm damage that isn’t visible from ground level, preventing water damage that could cost thousands more than the original roof repair. Whether you need new roof installation, roof damage repair from fallen branches, or help with leaky roof issues that keep you up at night, we handle it all.
For families concerned about disrupting their daily routine, we coordinate roof replacement projects to minimize impact on school schedules and work-from-home arrangements. Our team gets it, your home is your sanctuary, especially when you’ve got kids who need consistency.
Common Problems We Solve Here
Around here, we see several main issues that keep us busy. First, older homes often have flashing around chimneys and vents that wasn’t installed with today’s standards, so we provide comprehensive flashing repairs and updates. Second, the mature oak trees that make this neighborhood so appealing also drop branches during storms, leading to emergency roofing calls and roof repair for storm damage.
Third, the combination of age and our intense summer heat causes shingles to become brittle faster than you’d expect. We handle everything from minor roof leak repairs to complete reroofing projects, always with an eye toward long-term value rather than quick fixes.
We’ve also helped several families navigate insurance claims after hail damage, which is particularly important since many homes in this area have been in the same families for decades. Our team documents damage thoroughly and works directly with insurance adjusters to make sure you get the coverage you deserve.
