Why Brennan Roofing Co Dallas Is University Park’s Preferred Roof Repair Company
University Park homeowners don’t call us for the cheapest bid. They call because they’ve seen what happens when a storm-chaser tears off original slate and slaps down architectural shingles that don’t match the house. Our Roof Repair team has worked on Tudor, Colonial Revival, and Spanish Eclectic homes throughout University Park, and we understand that the roof is part of the architecture, not just a cover over it. Travis Oakley runs our crews to a standard most roofers won’t put in writing.
Every technician who steps onto a University Park roof is background-checked and arrives in uniform. You know exactly who’s on your property. The price goes on paper before any work starts, and that number does not move at the door. If a repair fails within one year, we come back and make it right at no charge. That’s the 365-Day Done Right Promise, and it’s in writing on every job we do in University Park.
This is what separates us. Most roofing companies compete on speed and volume. We compete on discipline. The Garrison Standard means written line-item pricing, a live person on the phone around the clock, and a full-year guarantee that actually gets honored.
Styles & brands we work with






Commercial Roof Repair in University Park
Commercial Roof Repair in University Park runs into a different set of problems than residential work. Flat or low-slope roofs on office buildings, churches, and the retail properties along Hillcrest Avenue take standing water after heavy rain and develop membrane splits at seams and penetrations. We repair TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen systems, and we don’t patch over rot. If the decking under a soft spot is compromised, you’ll see it in the written scope before we order materials.
Commercial repair costs in University Park generally run $900 – $4,500 depending on membrane type, the size of the affected area, and whether the insulation board underneath has absorbed water. A small TPO seam repair might run $900 – $1,400. A larger tear-out of wet insulation and re-membrane runs $2,500 and up. The price is fixed in writing before any work starts.
Low-Slope Membrane Patching
Flat roofs fail at transitions: parapet walls, HVAC curbs, vent stacks, and drains. We identify every penetration on the roof, test the seams with a moisture probe where needed, and patch with matching membrane material. On older University Park commercial buildings, we often find multiple failed repairs layered on top of each other. We cut those out and start clean.
Parapet and Edge Metal Repair
Parapet caps and edge metal on commercial buildings take the brunt of wind and hail. When the metal pulls away, water gets behind the wall and into the building. We custom-fabricate replacement edge metal to match the existing profile and seal it properly against the membrane. This is not a caulk-and-pray fix. It’s a permanent repair.
Roof Leak Repair in University Park
Roof Leak Repair in University Park usually starts with a water stain on a ceiling or a drip in an upstairs bedroom after a hard rain. The leak source is often nowhere near the stain. Water travels along rafters, under decking, and down wall cavities before it shows up inside. Our approach is systematic: we trace the water path from the inside, then confirm the entry point on the roof before we write the scope.
Leak repair in University Park runs $450 – $1,800 for most residential jobs. A simple vent boot replacement or a small flashing repair at a pipe penetration is on the lower end. A leak at a valley, dormer, or chimney with damaged decking runs higher. The price includes tearing off the affected area, inspecting the decking underneath, replacing any rotten wood, and reinstalling matching materials.
Chimney and Step Flashing Leaks
Chimney flashing is the most common leak point on University Park’s older homes. The original copper or galvanized flashing has been there since the 1920s or 1950s, and decades of thermal expansion have cracked or separated it. We remove the old flashing, inspect the masonry, and install new step and counter flashing with proper ice and water shield at the base. We don’t reuse flashing on a repair. That’s how leaks come back.
Valley and Dormer Leak Repair
Steep gables and complex dormers look beautiful, but every valley where two roof planes meet is a potential leak. On a 1930s Tudor on University Boulevard, our crew opened up a leak at a valley where original slate met copper flashing that had torn away at the drip edge. We salvaged and re-set the existing slate, replaced the flashing with proper ice and water shield underlayment at the eaves, and rebuilt a ridge vent to match the original profile. The roof looked untouched and the owner avoided a full replacement that a storm-chaser had quoted.
Trusted Brands We Service in University Park
University Park homes carry a range of roofing materials: original slate, clay tile, wood shake, and modern architectural shingles. We install and repair materials from IKO, Atlas, and Tamko, and we keep common repair stock on hand for University Park jobs so a shingle patch or a small tile repair doesn’t wait on a distributor’s schedule. When a homeowner wants a second opinion on materials, we walk them through the differences in plain language: what holds up to North Texas hail, what matches a 1930s Colonial Revival profile, and what’s going to last longest on a steep University Park pitch. The choice is yours. We just make sure you understand what you’re buying before you sign.

AfterCommon Roof Repair Problems We See in University Park Homes
- Original slate that doesn’t need replacement. True slate from the 1920s lasts 75 – 100 years. A roof that looks old often has decades left and only needs a few slates re-hung at a penetration or valley. Inexperienced contractors push replacement because it’s a bigger check. We repair slate, not tear it off.
- Storm damage that breaks architectural character. After a hail storm, the insurance check often covers architectural shingles. But on a Spanish Eclectic or Tudor home on Stanford Avenue, those shingles look wrong. We help homeowners work with their insurance to get materials that match the original character, whether that’s clay tile, slate, or heavy shake.
- Failed flashing at complex gables and dormers. A contractor reuses existing flashing because custom-fabricating new copper or lead-coated pieces costs money and time. The repair leaks at the first heavy storm. We fabricate new flashing for every repair. No exceptions.
- Vent boot and pipe penetration failures. The rubber boot around a vent pipe degrades in North Texas heat and cracks. Water follows the pipe into the attic. It’s a small repair, $450 – $700 in most University Park homes, and it’s one we can usually complete the same day it’s scheduled.

FAQs About Roof Repair in University Park
If your slate roof is shedding individual slates or leaking at a penetration, valley, or flashing line, it can almost always be repaired by a contractor who works with slate. Original 1920s slate from quarries like Buckingham or Peach Bottom regularly lasts 75 – 100 years, and University Park homes were built with some of the best slate available at the time. The real question is whether the decking underneath is sound. We inspect the decking from the attic and the roof before we write a scope. If the underlayment is shot but the decking is solid, we re-lay the affected area. Full replacement is only warranted when the decking has rotted or the slate field has delaminated beyond salvage. Call (903) 499-4441 and we’ll give you an honest read, not a replacement pitch.
Repairs that match existing materials and profiles generally do not require preservation board review, but any change to the visible roofing material on a home within a University Park historic district may trigger a certificate of appropriateness. If you’re repairing with matching slate or tile, you’re typically fine. If an insurance claim is pushing you toward architectural shingles, that’s where review comes in. We can document the existing roof, write a scope that specifies matching materials, and provide photos for any city review process. We’ve worked around preservation requirements on multiple University Park homes and know what the board asks for before we start.
Lead times, not labor, set the calendar on high-end University Park roof repairs. A slate repair needs matching slate from a specific quarry or salvaged source. A clay tile repair needs tile fired to match the existing profile. Custom copper flashing for a 1930s Tudor gable has to be fabricated, not pulled off a shelf. These materials don’t sit in a supplier’s warehouse waiting for our crew. They’re ordered, fabricated, or sourced after the scope is written. Our labor is scheduled around the materials. The price is fixed in writing before any materials are ordered, so the lead time doesn’t become a price-change excuse. We tell you the timeline upfront and hit it.
Yes. Hail fractures individual tiles, and fractured tiles are replaced tile-by-tile. The key is matching the new tile to the existing profile and color, which on a 1920s or 1930s University Park home means sourcing from salvage yards or ordering custom-fired tile. We also inspect the underlayment beneath the damaged tiles, because hail that cracks tile often damages the substrate underneath. The repair is surgical: remove the broken tile, replace the underlayment if needed, re-set matching tile, and re-point any mortar at the hips and ridges. The whole tile field does not come off for a hail repair.
Original 1930s wood shake is usually red cedar, heavy split, with a specific thickness and exposure. We source matching shake from specialty mills that still produce heavy hand-split cedar to historical dimensions. The new shake is weathered or stained to blend with the existing field, then installed with the same exposure and same fastener pattern as the original. On University Park homes with original shake, we never patch with a different material or a different profile. The repair should be invisible from the street. Call (903) 499-4441 for a written scope and an exact timeline.
