The housing stock across Plano
Neighborhoods closer to the older parts of the city tend to have lower pitched roofs with three tab shingles that have already been replaced once or twice, and attics with less ventilation than a modern build would have. Heat builds up in those attics through the summer, and shingles cook from underneath faster than the surface alone would suggest to a passerby.
The subdivisions further north, closer to the Dallas North Tollway and out toward the newer development around Legacy West, have steeper architectural shingle roofs and better attic ventilation, but they take more wind exposure since the lots tend to be more open.
Commercial work near Legacy West
The office and retail growth around Legacy West has brought a steady stream of flat and low slope commercial roofs into our schedule, along with the interior build outs that go with a growing business district. We work around business hours on these projects and keep the work area contained so tenants and customers are not disrupted.
Storm patterns in Plano
Spring storm fronts moving through Collin County bring straight line wind and hail more often than tornadoes, and Plano sits squarely in that path most years. Roofs here take repeated small hits over a decade rather than one dramatic event, which is why an inspection after a storm often finds damage that would go unnoticed until a leak shows up months later.
Older neighborhoods and mature tree cover
Parts of Plano with mature trees bring their own set of gutter and roof problems, since heavy leaf drop in autumn and seed pods in spring clog gutters faster than a newer subdivision with young trees. We schedule extra gutter checks for these areas around both of those seasons rather than waiting for a homeowner to notice standing water.
