Roofing and Siding Contractors for Cedar Park Houses

Tell us what the roof or the siding is doing. One independent Cedar Park-area contractor gets the details, comes out, and puts the scope in writing, which matters here because the city does not inspect a re-roof.

This site connects homeowners with contractors. It does not install roofs or siding itself.

Cedar Park, specifically

Four Local Facts Behind Every Page Here

No permit for a re-roof: The city's Do I Need a Permit? page lists “Roof Covering (non-structural)” under work that does not need one. Nobody from the city checks the finished roof.
Half the house is masonry: On April 12, 2012 the city council voted 5 to 1 to keep single-family houses at 50 percent masonry and require 75 percent on houses facing two streets. Where that leaves the siding.
May 28, 2025: Hail reports from Cedar Park that evening ran from quarter size at Park Street and U.S. 183 to “nickel to chicken egg size hail for 20 minutes.” The reports, with sources.
37 acres on Parmer Lane: The August 8, 2023 Parmer Lane Fire started in grass, reached a tree and then an apartment building. What that says about roof edges and gutters.

Twelve Jobs, One Picture Each

These images illustrate the kinds of work described on this site. They are not photographs of jobs by any particular contractor.

A gloved hand lifting a loose shingle near the top of a roof where several are missing and black felt shows, with a short stack of new shingles, a hammer and a caulk tube beside it

A hand aiming a flashlight at a tan, ring-shaped water stain with cracked paint in the corner of a bedroom ceiling, above a paint-spattered stepladder

Dark shingles with seven round bruises each ringed in white chalk, a gloved hand holding the chalk, and a metal roof vent with dents across its top

A worker kneeling on a low roof, seen from behind, fitting long gray metal panels with raised seams over underlayment on a stone house, with more panels laid on blocks in the yard

A gloved hand lifting dry oak leaves and brown cedar needles out of a white gutter packed to the shingle edge, seen from a ladder with a blue bucket

Two gloved hands nailing a cap shingle over a black vent strip along the peak of a roof, beside an open slot cut through the decking, a circular saw and a coil of nails

The back of a two-story house with stone below: old boards on the left of the upper wall, white wrap in the middle, new gray planks on the right, and a worker on a plank between two ladders

A hand working a flat bar into the swollen, flaking bottom edge of green painted siding where the wall meets a lower roof, with water streaks below the gutter end

Gloved hands holding a pale yellow plank on a small metal clip above the row below it, a nail gun in the other hand, white wrap above and a band of stone at the base of the wall

A tall chimney box covered in horizontal boards rising from a shingle roof, paint peeling off one side and a corner board split, with a pry bar and caulk gun at its base

How houses here are clad

Boards Above, Stone Below

A typical house built under Cedar Park's masonry rule has two exteriors, and they fail differently.

The siding half

Gables, second-story walls, the box around a metal fireplace flue, dormers and often the whole back wall. It is high up, it takes the afternoon sun, and it sits right above roof lines where water runs.

The masonry half

Brick, stone or block on the street side and usually the ground floor. Not a siding job. What matters to a siding contractor is the joint where boards land on top of the masonry, and the trim and soffit that tie the two to the roof.

The 50 and 75 percent figures are the city's 2012 standards for new construction as reported by Community Impact and the Mason Contractors Association of America. Individual houses and older neighborhoods differ.

Short answers

Asked Most Often

Does a roof replacement in Cedar Park need a city permit?

The City of Cedar Park's permit page lists Roof Covering (non-structural) among the work that does not need a permit. If the job changes the framing or adds structure, the same page says a permit is required. For anything in between, the city asks people to call 512-401-5100.

Who actually does the work?

An independent roofing or siding contractor. This site takes the call or the form, passes the details to one contractor, and that company inspects, prices and does the job under its own name and insurance.

Why is so little of my house covered in siding?

Cedar Park has required masonry on new buildings for years. In April 2012 the council kept single-family houses at 50 percent masonry and set 75 percent for houses that face two streets. Siding ended up on gables, upper floors, chimney chases and back walls.

Is the contractor licensed by the state?

Texas does not issue a state license for roofing or siding, so there is no license to show. Cedar Park does require every contractor working in the city to register with it, at no fee. What you can ask for is an insurance certificate and the warranty on paper.

Will this site help with my insurance claim?

No. Filing, negotiating, adjusting or settling a claim is not something this site does. A contractor can document what is on the roof and price the repair. Questions about coverage go to your insurer or agent.
