We were in need of a new roof and I took charge of hiring a roofer since my husband was not available. I decided to call several roofers to get an estimate. I called Presidio first based on the positive reviews I found online. They sent Cliffton Solis to talk to me. After speaking to Cliff and having him explain the whole process, I felt good knowing that he would be the point person on my project so I hired him right away and didn't call any other roofers. Cliff made me feel so comfortable that I could trust him. He was courteous and professional and quickly responded to my questions and texts. On the day of the install, his crew arrived early and promptly got to work laying out numerous tarps around the perimeter of the house to protect landscaping and catch any debris that might fall from the roof. They were very efficient while working and were impeccable at cleaning up the area after the roof was installed. I highly recommend Cliffton Solis and his crew at Presidio Roofing.

This experience was excellent. There was a very short notice and limited time to execute a roof replacemet. Presidio roofing stepped up, educated us kn the process was able to bring in a crew within a few days with materials on hand and complete the job in one day. Key things to note: I've asked for updates and images of the work and they were committed to comply. No mess left behind is very welcoming because we were in the process of selling our home. Being thorough, having excellent quality work, and keeping it clean and tidy is what most if not all customers value when the costs are determined. I would definitely recommend Presidio Roofing. Thank you Robbie.

I will never go anywhere else for roofing needs. Everyone at Presidio was very professional from the very beginning and actually helped me save a lot of money on my project by guiding me to the best solution that I didn’t even think was possible. I appreciate them looking out for me and for them taking pride in what they do.

Why Choose a Tilcor Roof?

There are many reasons to consider a Tilcor stone coated steel roof for your home or business. As the best Tilcor roofing company in San Antonio we consider these to be the primary reasons to think about switching to a Tilcor roofing system:

Hail Resistance

Stone Coated Steel roofs have a Class 4 hail rating. Both Decra and Tilcor have this rating and it means they will hold up to 2” hailstones. Both products have hail specific warranties for hail up to 2.5” which would completely total your average roof including metal or clay tile. This allows home and business owners to qualify for reduction in their property insurance premiums. In Texas there is a specific Class 4 TDI form that you can send to your insurance agent to have your premium reduced by often more than 25%.

Wind Resistance

A properly installed Tilcor roof can withstand hurricane force winds. Tilcor roofs have wind warranties up to 120 mph.

Warranty

Stone Coated Steel roofs are meant to the kind of roofs that last on your home or business for your entire life. In all likelihood you will never need to replace your Tilcor roof and their lifetime warranties attest to that fact. As the top Tilcor roofer in San Antonio we love installing these roofs because we know that every client will no longer have to worry about their roof.

Fire Resistance

Tilcor Roofs have the highest possible “Class A” fire rating. This makes them perfect for dry and hot environments like San Antonio where fires can start easily. This also means if a fire starts in your home your property will not explode in flames like if you had an asphalt shingle product.

Lightweight

A Tilcor roofing panel system weighs only about 150 pounds per 100 square feet when installed. This is about half the weight of standard architectural shingle and about 15% the weight of a larger concrete or clay tile roofing system. This means less force is applied to your property’s rafters, framing, walls, etc which is better for the life of your property in the long term. This also means that you do not need to work about the product being too heavy for a viable replacement. For example, if you wanted to upgrade a shingle roof to a tile roof you would likely need to get additional bracing support installed in your attic to handle the new weight load.

Sustainable and Energy Efficient

Stone coated steel roofs are recyclable, they qualify as “Cool Roofs” due to their thermal reflective efficiency, and they are elevated above the roof decking thus providing “above sheathing ventilation” which greatly reduces the heat of your attic. One of the coolest sustainable facts about a Tilcor stone coated steel roof is that they lend themselves well to water catchment systems. Water flowing off a Tilcor roof is qualified per the standards set by the world health organization as potable drinking water, whereas water flowing off an old asphalt roof would be toxic. All-in-all a stone coated steel roof is extremely environmentally friendly and will save you money on your electricity bill every month.

Long-term Cost Savings

A Tilcor roof will save you money in the long-term by reducing your insurance premiums, saving you money on your electric bill, and preventing the need to replace your roof every 6-10 years from due to hail damage.

Cost of a Tilcor Roof?

A Tilcor roof is generally going to cost about 3x what a traditional asphalt shingle roof would cost to replace. Depending on the type of roof it will usually cost 25-50% less than a tile roof and roughly the same as a standing seam metal roof. To replace a Tilcor roof, including tear off, you will find yourself in the range of $9 to $20 per square foot. Some factors that can drastically affect the cost of a new Tilcor roof include the amount of valleys and hips your roof has, whether you elect for a batten or direct-to-deck installation, the amount of wall and chimney flashings on your home, and the steepness and height of the roof. In general a Tilcor roofing system will cost slightly less than a similar system in the Decra brand.

When considering whether it makes sense to install a Tilcor roof in San Antonio it is always best to obtain a free estimate from one of our qualified project managers. They will help you analyze the cost-benefit ratio in the long term of a new stone coated steel roof when factoring in considerations such as insurance premium reductions, reduce energy costs each month, and not having to replace your roof every 6-10 years due to a hailstorm. Overall, in the long term, installing a new Tilcor roof on your home is almost always the best financial decision and we can help provide you with the facts needed to make that decision.
