Arlington homes, up close
Lake Arlington, on the west side, is a city water source. Many neighborhoods were built from the 1970s through the 1990s on slab foundations.
Viridian is a newer master-planned neighborhood on the north side. Many mid-century homes have asphalt shingle roofs on their second or third replacement. Spring storms can bring large hail.
Strong sun and summer heat age shingles and sealants faster on south and west faces. Arlington sits between Dallas and Fort Worth.
Permits, licenses and your utility
Texas has no statewide roofing license, so ask for references and check with your city about permits. If storm damage is involved, take photos before repairs for any insurance claim. Ask how the roofer will protect gutters, plantings and walkways while work is underway.
Permit questions go to the City of Arlington Planning and Development Services department. Arlington Water Utilities treats water from Lake Arlington and other reservoirs supplied by the Tarrant Regional Water District. The University of Texas at Arlington is next to downtown. Six Flags Over Texas opened in Arlington in 1961.

Quick answers
How long does a roof last?
It depends on the material. Asphalt shingles often last around 20 to 30 years, while metal, tile and slate can last much longer with care.

What causes roof leaks?
Worn flashing around chimneys, vents and skylights is a common cause, along with missing shingles and clogged gutters.
What is flashing?
Metal or other material that seals joints around chimneys, vents and walls. Failed flashing is a common leak source. Rusty, bent or lifted flashing is a common reason for leaks around chimneys and skylights.
What should I tell the roofer?
Describe where you see water, when it happens and the roof type if you know it. If you can, note which rooms are affected and whether leaks follow wind from one direction.
Write down any error codes, noises or smells. Details like that speed things up.
