Hunter's Air, Heat & Roofing, Inc. repairs, replaces and inspects roofs in Sargent, Texas, the fishing and boating community in the eastern corner of Matagorda County, about five miles from the Gulf of Mexico. Few places in our service area are harder on a roof: salt air, constant humidity, relentless summer sun and a direct line to the tropical storms and hurricanes coming in off the water.
Whether you need a leak found on a waterfront home along Caney Creek, wind damage repaired on a fishing camp that only sees you on holiday weekends, a full roof replacement before the next hurricane season, or a metal roof on a barn or equipment building on one of the rice and cattle operations inland, our crews handle it with a free written estimate up front and TAMKO material warranties plus our own workmanship warranty behind the finished job. We also provide heating and air conditioning service in Sargent, so storm recovery can be handled by one contractor.
Every roofing job starts with an inspection and a written estimate, so you know what you are paying for before work begins.
Leaks, wind-lifted or missing shingles, corroded flashing and fasteners, and storm damage confined to one slope. We find the cause, not just the drip.
New architectural shingle and metal roofs with fresh underlayment, corrected decking and fastening chosen for an exposed coastal site.
A systematic look at the roof surface, attic and interior, with a written report. Recommended yearly and after any major weather event.
Photo documentation, measurement in roofing squares and a scope of loss your adjuster can act on after a hurricane, tropical storm, hail or wind.
Most of Sargent's roofs sit on waterfront lots along Caney Creek, the Intracoastal Waterway and East Matagorda Bay, in developments laid out on canals after Hurricane Carla in 1961. Many started as fishing camps and have since become permanent homes with private piers and docks, and many owners are only here on weekends. A roof that fails in a storm on a Tuesday may not be discovered until Friday night, so the roof has to be built to hold on its own.
We work with materials suited to that exposure. We install architectural asphalt shingles from GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning and TAMKO, along with durable metal roofing options, and we start every replacement with a fresh underlayment layer and corrected decking. Fastening and flashing get particular attention on the coast: wind-driven rain finds its way in at chimneys, vents, valleys and wall intersections long before the shingle field fails, and salt air shortens the life of any metal that is not up to the job.
As a TAMKO Platinum Pro certified contractor we can offer enhanced TAMKO warranty coverage that most local contractors cannot. Your new roof is protected by the manufacturer's warranty on materials and by our own workmanship warranty on the installation. Ask about TAMKO warranty options when you schedule your free estimate.
Inland from the water, Sargent is surrounded by the rice farms and cattle operations that define this part of Matagorda County. Barns, equipment buildings, livestock facilities and grain storage structures need roofing that handles both the weather and the demands of the work going on underneath it.
Metal roofing is the usual answer for these buildings because of its durability, fire resistance and long service life, and we size the ventilation to control the moisture that livestock and stored grain produce.
For the bait shops, marinas and other businesses that serve Sargent's boating and fishing traffic, we provide the same inspection, repair and replacement services with scheduling built around your hours of operation. If your building also needs commercial HVAC service, the same company can handle both.
Five miles from the Gulf, the question is not whether a tropical system will test your roof, but when.
Sargent's exposure to hurricanes and tropical storms is a matter of record; the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers built a granite breakwater here in the early 1990s to hold back storm surge and erosion. After a storm we prioritize getting a crew on the roof to assess the damage, secure the property and begin storm damage roof repair before the next rain turns a shingle problem into an interior problem. Ask about same-day inspections after any major weather event.
Not every storm-damaged roof needs replacing. If the damage is confined to one slope, a few shingles have lifted, or a section of ridge cap is gone from an otherwise sound roof, a repair that matches the new material to your existing roof is often the right answer. Once damage is widespread, the decking is soft, or the roof is near the end of its service life, a full replacement is the better long-term investment. We tell you which one you are looking at.
Most homeowner's insurance policies cover roof damage caused by sudden events like hail, wind or fire, but the claim is only as good as the documentation behind it. We photograph the damage, measure the loss by the roofing square (a 10-foot by 10-foot, 100-square-foot area of roof surface), and prepare a scope of loss the adjuster can act on.
We work with insurance companies regularly and understand what they need to see. Our storm damage insurance claims guide walks through the steps from first inspection to final repair. Because Hunter's also runs a full HVAC operation, one visit can cover the roof and any storm damage to the outdoor air conditioning unit.
Our office is in Boling-Iago, up the road from the coast. We have served the area since 2000 and we are still here after the storm chasers leave.
One of the higher certification levels TAMKO awards to roofing contractors, which unlocks enhanced material warranties for your roof.
Every job is quoted in writing by the roofing square, so you can compare bids on an apples-to-apples basis instead of a lump sum.
A new roof is a major purchase. Financing options are available for qualified buyers.
