Full Roof Replacement at Mt. Horeb Missionary Baptist Church in Houston

Mt. Horeb Missionary Baptist Church needed a full roof replacement - and this was not a small job. The existing roof was well past its useful life. Old shingles were cracked, breaking apart, and coming off in chunks. There were areas where the decking underneath was already exposed, and temporary tarps had been thrown over sections just to keep water out in the meantime.

Here's what we were working with - decades worth of deteriorated shingles, failing underlayment, and a roof that had simply reached the end of the road. Before any new materials could go on, everything had to come off. Full tear-off down to the wood decking. That's the only way to do a replacement right. You can't just layer new shingles over a damaged base and expect them to hold up, especially with Houston weather in the mix.

Once the decking was clean and prepped, we laid down new underlayment and installed fresh architectural shingles across the entire roof. Multiple ridge vents and turbine vents were installed to keep airflow moving through the building - something that matters a lot in the Houston heat. Every course of shingles was laid tight and uniform, ridge to eave.

The finished roof sits right in the shadow of downtown Houston. The new charcoal shingles look sharp and the whole system is built to handle whatever comes - heavy rain, wind, summer heat. For a building that serves its community every week, that kind of reliability isn't optional.

Commercial and institutional roofing jobs like this one take real coordination. The scope is bigger, the stakes are higher, and the community depending on that building deserves a crew that takes it seriously. We're proud of the work we put into this one.
