Professional roof replacement for McAllen homes
Baccaro Roofing replaces roofs across every McAllen ZIP — 78501 downtown and the older 1960s-80s housing stock around 17th Street and Pecan where partial plank-decking replacement is almost always part of the scope, 78503 covering Las Brisas and east McAllen with its mid-size 90s-00s tract homes, 78504 from Trenton Crossing through the Bicentennial Boulevard corridor and North McAllen where newer construction means simpler decking and faster turnarounds, and 78505 for outlying delivery addresses. Every replacement is permitted through the McAllen Development Center on Pecan Boulevard — permit fees run $250-$450 depending on square footage, and the inspector pulls both a tear-off inspection and a final. Hidalgo County sits in a 130 mph wind design speed zone under the 2021 IRC, which means 6-nail patterns on every shingle and engineered fastening on metal panels. Real 2026 McAllen pricing: $7-$12/sqft for asphalt shingle, $9-$18/sqft for metal, $14-$25/sqft for tile — a typical 2,200 sqft McAllen home runs $17,000-$26,000 turn-key for shingle. We install GAF Timberline HDZ, Owens Corning Duration, and CertainTeed Landmark product lines. Free inspections, owner-operated by Ronnie Baccaro, no Assignment of Benefits.

What roof replacement involves in McAllen
A typical McAllen roof replacement happens in five clear stages over 1 to 3 days. Day one starts with crew arrival around 7am, full property protection (tarps over landscaping, plywood over windows where needed, dump trailer staged), then complete tear-off of the existing shingles, underlayment, and old flashing down to bare decking. We inspect every square foot of the deck for rot, water damage, or weakened OSB; any compromised wood is replaced at the price quoted in your written estimate, not added later as a surprise. Synthetic underlayment goes down next (lighter, stronger, and more weather-resistant than felt), followed by ice and water shield in valleys, around penetrations, and at eaves. Day two installs the new shingles or metal panels using the manufacturer's exact fastening pattern — 6 nails per shingle for hurricane-rated installation, ring-shank nails into the deck, sealed flashing at chimneys, skylights, and walls. Ridge vent or static vents go in for proper attic airflow. Day three (or end of day two for smaller roofs) is final inspection, magnetic nail sweep across the entire yard and driveway, gutter cleaning, and a written project completion record. Then we register the manufacturer warranty in your name.
Common McAllen roof replacement scenarios
Four replacement scenarios come up constantly in McAllen. First, post-2024-hail claims in the 78504 corridor north of Trenton — the May 2024 hail event dropped 1.5-2 inch stones across North McAllen, and Texas insurance carriers generally hold the claim window open for two years from date of loss, meaning homeowners still have a narrow runway in 2026 to file before forfeiture. Second, pre-2026 Hurricane season prep on roofs that are 18+ years old with visible granule loss in the gutters — replacing before the named-storm window opens means homeowners avoid post-storm deductible spikes and the 3-6 month contractor backlog that follows every Gulf landfall. Third, Sharyland and UTRGV McAllen Teaching Site area HOA premium upgrades — homeowners replacing 25-year architectural asphalt with standing-seam metal or stone-coated steel inside the approved ARC color palette, often paired with a Class 4 impact rating for the insurance discount. Fourth, 78501 older-housing on the 1960s-70s plank-decking blocks — partial decking replacement combined with a 3-tab to Class 4 impact-rated shingle upgrade, which typically qualifies the homeowner for a 10-30% Texas wind and hail insurance discount with most carriers.
Timeline, cost, and what's included in McAllen
Most full residential replacements in McAllen run $7,000 to $18,000 for Class 4 architectural shingles, $14,000 to $35,000+ for standing-seam metal. The price you see in our written estimate is the price you pay — line-item by material, labor, decking allowance, permit, and disposal, with no hidden surprise charges. Timeline: 1 day for roofs under 18 squares (1,800 sq ft) with no decking issues; 2 days for 18-30 squares or partial decking replacement; 3 days for larger homes, complex pitches, or full re-deck. Every replacement includes complete tear-off, full property tarping, decking inspection and replacement of any compromised wood, synthetic underlayment plus ice-and-water shield at valleys and eaves, new drip edge, new flashing at every penetration, new shingles or metal with 6-nail hurricane-spec fastening, ridge ventilation, magnetic nail sweep, gutter cleaning, and full property cleanup. Our 5-year workmanship guarantee starts the day we hand you the project completion record.
