Rated #1 in Rowlett & Rockwall
Emergency roof repair
Roof leaking? Call (214) 884-8346. Our phones are answered 24/7.
When hail, wind, or a hard rain opens up a roof in Rowlett, Rockwall, or Garland, our crew finds the leak, stops the water, and tarps it first. What happens after that is up to you.
What you’re dealing with
Most calls after a storm fall into one of two groups. Here’s how to tell which one you’re in.
Call now
If any of these sound like your house, it needs to be covered before the next rain.
Book an inspection
We’ll get on the roof, photograph what’s there, and tell you where it stands.
What happens when you call
Someone picks up around the clock and asks a few quick questions so the crew shows up ready.
The Riddle team gets your answers right away and lines up who’s coming out.
If it’s leaking, the crew finds the leak and tarps it before anything else. Every crew carries tarping gear.
Once the water’s stopped, we show you what we found. If you want it repaired, it becomes a regular project from there.

Roof leaking in the rain
A wet, storm-damaged roof is not the place to be. Let our crew handle the tarp.
Pull furniture, electronics, and rugs out from under the leak, and put something down to catch the water.
Ceiling stains, wet floors, shingles in the yard. Pictures taken the day of the storm are the most useful ones later.
Why the tarp comes first
The Texas Department of Insurance advises homeowners to make only temporary repairs after a storm, like putting a tarp over a damaged roof, until an adjuster has seen the damage.
Post-storm inspections
After hail or high wind, plenty of roofs look worse from the street than they are. We get on the roof, photograph what’s there, and tell you where it stands, even when the answer is that you don’t need us. Some of our reviews come from homeowners we told to keep the roof they have.

“I had a great experience with Riddle Brothers Roofing and Construction after our home sustained damage from a previous hail storm. From the initial inspection through project completion, everything was handled professionally and efficiently. … I worked directly with David Sutton from beginning to end, and he was amazing.”

“After several storms last year I reached out to their company after many others told me they were coming and didn’t. David came to inspect my roof asap and to my surprise he said everything looked good. … Trust is the most important thing to have when working with people.”

“I still haven’t found a single nail on my property after their final cleanup. That is a level of detail and quality focus you will never get from the storm chasing roofers that flood the neighborhoods every time a big storm hits.”

One call handles it all
We bring in the tree removal company we work with to get it off the house, then we tarp the opening and handle the repair.
Hail rarely stops at the shingles. When a storm also takes out your gutters, siding, or windows, one call covers all of it, with one crew and one standard from start to finish.
Where we respond
Our crews live in the same neighborhoods we work in. With 6,000+ projects done across Dallas-Fort Worth, you’ve probably driven past one of our roofs.

Frequently asked questions
Stay off the roof, move what you can out from under the leak, take a few photos, and call us at (214) 884-8346. If water is coming in, the crew that comes out stops it and tarps it first.
Yes. Our phones are answered 24/7. Whoever picks up takes down a few details and gets them to our team right away.
Some of it shows from the ground: shingles or pieces of shingle in the yard, dents in the gutters, downspouts, or AC unit, or neighbors getting roofs replaced after the same storm. A lot of it doesn’t show until someone is on the roof. We’ll get up there, photograph what’s there, and tell you where it stands.
As soon as you can. Hail damage takes time to show up inside the house, and pictures taken close to the storm are the most useful ones later. The inspection is free.
We’d rather you didn’t. A wet, storm-damaged roof is not the place to be. Move what you can out from under the leak, put something down to catch the water, and call (214) 884-8346. Every crew carries tarping gear.

If water is coming in, call a roofer first so the opening gets covered. The Texas Department of Insurance advises making only temporary repairs, like a tarp, until an adjuster has seen the damage. If nothing is leaking, either order works. An inspection tells you what the storm did, with photos you can share with your insurance company.
Most Texas homeowner policies give you one year from the date of the storm, but the deadline is set by your policy, so check it or ask your agent. Either way, the sooner the roof is looked at, the easier the damage is to show.
They show up at your door right after a big storm and move on to the next one. Check for a local office, read the reviews, and ask how long the company has been in business. We’ve been in Rowlett since 2013, and our crews live in the neighborhoods we work in.
