We focus on energy efficiency and impact resistance through high-performance materials. Our installations reduce cooling costs, extend roof life, and reduce downtime during upgrades or repairs. Expect clear scopes and honest recommendations every time.

We install common and specialty systems, including TPO for reflective performance, metal for longevity, asphalt for cost-effective coverage, and composite options for architectural appearance. Each choice suits different budgets, slopes, and maintenance expectations for your building.

Our team evaluates existing roof decks, insulation, and drainage to choose systems that work together. Good installation requires planning, correct fastening patterns, and attention to flashings and seams to avoid common failure points.

Routine maintenance keeps roofs performing longer and reduces emergency work. We offer scheduled inspections, membrane cleaning, seam checks, and targeted repairs that extend service life and improve performance without the cost of full replacement.

Maintenance also protects warranties and preserves building value. We provide written maintenance plans and service logs, so managers and owners see the work performed and the condition trends over time.

Commercial Expertise and Project Management

Swordsmen Roofing combines seasoned project managers with local crews to keep projects on schedule and on budget. We use data-driven methods to monitor progress, control waste, and coordinate subcontractors, ensuring consistent quality from start to finish.

Communication is a priority: we share daily updates, photos, and milestone reports. That means fewer surprises for building owners and managers, and a faster path to a fully functional, watertight roof that protects business operations.

Large roofing projects require careful staging and coordination with site operations. We plan deliveries, traffic flow, and safety zones so your business can continue operating while crews work. Good planning reduces downtime and improves worker safety.

We also create weather contingency plans and communicate any schedule shifts in real time so owners and managers can adjust operations with minimal disruption and clear expectations.

Materials, Technology, and Energy Savings

We partner with American-made manufacturers to install high-performance systems. That focus delivers better materials, faster warranty support, and products designed for Texas weather. Reflective roofs can significantly cut cooling costs for warehouses, retail centers, and offices.

Energy-saving systems often pay back initial investment through lower electric bills. We model projected savings and estimate payback periods so owners can make data-driven decisions about upgrades like reflective membranes and extra insulation.

Reflective roof systems reduce rooftop heat gain and lower HVAC loads. When combined with proper insulation, reflective membranes yield measurable energy savings in warm climates and increase occupant comfort while reducing roof surface temperatures and stress.

We provide modeled savings and life-cycle cost estimates so property owners understand the trade-offs. These analyses show how upgrades can reduce operating costs and improve building performance over time.

Selecting the right system matters in areas prone to hail and high winds. We recommend and install membranes and metal systems rated for impact resistance and high-wind uplift control, giving owners robust protection against common Texas weather risks.

Our installations use proper fastening patterns, edge details, and certified attachments that meet manufacturer guidelines. Proper attachment is essential to keep roofs intact during severe weather events and to comply with local roofing codes.

Have questions about the best material for your building? Call 972-979-6197 to reach a materials specialist who can explain differences, trade-offs, and warranty impacts. We help you choose options that match your budget and performance goals.

We also offer samples and mock-ups so you can see finishes and test compatibility with drain systems, rooftop equipment, and architectural needs before committing to a full replacement.

Roof Repairs, Replacements, and Rejuvenation

From small leaks to full system replacements, our teams deliver fast, reliable work. We start each job with a detailed inspection, clear pictures, and a written scope that outlines repair steps, materials, and estimated timelines so you know what to expect.

For aging roofs, rejuvenation and targeted repairs can extend life at a lower cost than full replacement. We assess membranes, seams, flashing, and roof drainage to recommend a cost-effective plan that meets your long-term goals.

When leaks threaten operations, rapid response matters. Our crews are available for emergency repairs and will stabilize leaks while assessing whether a patch, reseal, or replacement is the best long-term solution to prevent repeat problems.

We document emergency repairs and follow up with a permanent plan, including recommended timing, cost estimates, and any needed maintenance to keep your roof performing reliably after the emergency fix.

Replacing a roof on a large facility can be phased to match budget cycles and minimize disruption. We offer phased replacement plans, tenant coordination, and scheduling strategies that let you protect assets without halting operations or compromising safety.

We also provide cost projections for replacement versus continued repair, so owners can decide when to invest in a new system to reduce long-term costs and risks associated with aging roofs.

Need help planning capital projects? Our team provides reserve study input and cost forecasting to help owners budget for roofing work. We outline expected life spans, maintenance needs, and replacement year estimates so reserves align with real roof performance.

To discuss a reserve study or a phased replacement plan, call 972-979-6197. We'll share options and help you build a practical, long-term budget that keeps your buildings protected and financially sound.

Understanding Roofing Codes & Wind Uplift Requirements in Texas is essential. Local codes and building standards dictate fastening patterns, attachment types, and uplift testing criteria. We ensure every installation complies with these rules to protect property and meet insurer expectations.

We stay updated on local amendments, manufacturer requirements, and industry best practices so your project avoids non-compliance that can cost time and money. A properly attached roof meets both safety and performance goals.

Permits and inspections are part of every commercial job. We handle permit applications, coordinate inspections, and ensure installations meet municipal requirements. This reduces risk and speeds approvals, so your roof replacement or repair moves smoothly to completion.

Our teams document attachments, fasteners, and installation methods to provide clear evidence during inspections and to support warranty claims and insurance reviews when needed.

Wind uplift is a primary concern in Texas. We use tested attachment patterns, certified fasteners, and manufacturer-approved edge details to mitigate uplift risk. These methods are proven to reduce the chance of roofing failure during high-wind events.

We also recommend systems with high-wind endorsements where appropriate, and we can model wind loads for specific sites to guide the right attachment strategy and material selection.

If you need a code review or wind uplift assessment, call our compliance team at 972-979-6197. We will evaluate your roof, review local requirements, and provide a written plan that meets code and helps secure insurance underwriting.

Our code review reports are practical, clear, and designed to support permit submissions and insurance discussions, giving owners confidence their roofs meet legal and safety expectations.
