Residential Roofing
Our residential roofing services combine expert craftsmanship with premium materials to protect homes across Texas. With specialized skills in historic preservation and modern installations, we address unique challenges like restoring century-old cotton gin conversions while maintaining architectural integrity. Our team delivers fast, clean replacements with transferable warranties, handling storm damage emergencies within a week of approval. From asphalt shingles to standing seam metal systems, we help homeowners make informed decisions that balance budget and longevity.
Commercial Roofing
Johnson Roofing provides comprehensive commercial solutions for facilities ranging from hospitals to military installations. Certified by top manufacturers like GAF and Firestone, we install and maintain all system types including TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen. Our 150+ equipment fleet and specialized crews handle complex projects like the Baylor Sciences Building's curved metal roof. With 25 NRCA-certified torch applicators and 23 CPR-trained personnel, we prioritize safety while meeting strict deadlines for institutions like the U.S. Federal Courthouse in Austin.
Roof Management Plans
Our Johnson Roof Management Program extends roof lifespans through preventative care. Certified Master Elite Installers conduct photo-documented inspections twice yearly, identifying issues before they escalate. We create customized plans with 5- or 10-year budget projections, including coatings, waterproofing, and warranty reviews. This proactive approach aligns with manufacturer requirements to maintain warranties, potentially delaying full replacements for years while reducing long-term costs for commercial property owners.
Emergency Roof Repair
Available for urgent roofing needs, our emergency response team addresses storm damage and critical leaks promptly. With rapid deployment capabilities demonstrated during events like Waco's historic hailstorms, we complete repairs within a week of approval while ensuring permanent solutions. Crews document all issues thoroughly and work with insurance providers, maintaining detailed records of replaced materials and structural reinforcements to prevent future problems in residential and commercial settings.
Sheet Metal Fabrication
Our UL-certified sheet metal shop produces custom components meeting the highest quality standards. Capable of fabricating rare architectural elements like the 19-foot Themis statue restoration, we serve both functional and aesthetic needs. The facility supports commercial projects requiring complex designs and residential installations seeking durable standing seam systems, applying precision manufacturing techniques that justify the prestigious UL label affixed to all finished products.

Report
Living in a 70 year old metal building that was originally a cotton gin, there are many puzzling problems that come up with not only the roof but also the windows and old metal siding. Johnson Roofings staff have so much experience that they know how to make repairs and also honor the age and history of our home. We really appreciate their expertise!
