Roofing and fencing for Harlingen homes
From a leaking shingle roof to a new privacy fence, we handle the work from the first estimate to the finished job.
What Harlingen weather does to a roof
Harlingen sits about 30 miles from the Gulf of Mexico, so roofs here deal with long humid summers, heavy rain, and the occasional hurricane. When Hurricane Hanna came through in July 2020, Harlingen recorded a 63 mph gust, between 8 and 15 inches of rain fell across the area, and the National Weather Service reported hundreds of poorly built homes and structures damaged, mostly roofs. A roof that is installed correctly is the best protection a Harlingen home has.
Permits, insurance, and inspections in Cameron County
Roofing in Cameron County is not the same as roofing in Hidalgo County. Harlingen sits inside the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association coverage area, so many roof jobs need extra steps, such as a city permit, a windstorm inspection certificate, or an engineer's sign off required by the insurance company. Homes with a mortgage often have lender requirements too. Not every roof needs all of it, and a simple repair on an older home may need none. We go over which steps apply to your roof before the job starts. Texas Contractors, Inc. is General Liability Insured, so the homeowner is covered while the work is going on. In Harlingen, building permits go through the City of Harlingen Building Inspections Department.
The products on the roof matter too. In the windstorm area, roofing products and installation methods have to meet Texas Department of Insurance windstorm standards, and not every product on the shelf qualifies. The wrong product can hold up an inspection and leave a homeowner without the windstorm certificate the insurance company or the lender asks for. We install to those requirements.

What Harlingen homeowners say
“Built a 600 linear foot privacy fence for me — beautiful design. Solid construction, blocks a busy highway and provides security. Price was fair and the crew worked fast. I would highly recommend them for fencing needs and will use this company again.”
“Fence work was completed as requested. Very happy with the final result.”

Harlingen roofing and fencing questions
Do you serve Harlingen?
Yes. Harlingen is our home base. Jobs are supervised by the owner and his son.
How do I know if my roof needs repair or replacement?
Common signs are missing or curling shingles, granules in the gutters, stains on the ceiling, and daylight in the attic. We offer no obligation roof inspections, so you get a straight answer on repair or replacement.
Should I get my roof checked after a storm?
Yes. Wind and heavy rain can loosen shingles and break seals without leaving damage you can see from the ground. Request an inspection before small damage turns into a leak.
Does my Harlingen roof need a permit or an engineer?
It depends on the home. Some jobs need a city permit, and some need a windstorm inspection or an engineer's sign off because of the insurance company or the lender. An older home with a basic repair may need none of it. We will tell you what applies to your roof.
Do the roofing products matter for windstorm insurance?
Yes. In the windstorm area, roofing products and the way they are installed have to meet Texas Department of Insurance standards. We install to those requirements, so the roof is ready for the inspection the insurance company or the lender may ask for.
What shingles do you install?
Texas Contractors, Inc. is a CertainTeed ShingleMaster Certified Installer and installs architectural shingles.

Yes. The owner of Texas Contractors, Inc. has built fences since 1987, including cedar privacy fences, and we handle roofing and fencing under one roof.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. We offer financing through third party lenders, HFS Financial and Synchrony. Checking if you prequalify is free, takes a couple of minutes, and uses a soft credit check, so it does not affect your credit score. Financing is subject to credit approval. The lender decides approval, rates, and terms based on your credit and other factors, and we do not set or guarantee them. Cash or financed, no deposit is needed, and you pay nothing until the job is done and you are satisfied.
Do you accept credit cards?
Yes. We accept all major credit cards. A flat 1.75% card fee is added to credit card payments to cover processing costs. There is no fee for cash, check, or debit card. Card payments are made when the job is done, and no deposit is needed.
