Here’s the Truth About Hiring a Roofer in Simonton TX, and How Holden Roofing Changes It
Thousands of roofing companies chase work around greater Houston, and when a Gulf storm passes, a share of them drive straight out FM 1093 to Simonton. After Beryl knocked down trees across this town in July 2024, unfamiliar trucks were parked on driveways before the power crews finished.
A town of a few hundred homes does not see many roofers twice. Who answers the phone when the barn roof leaks next spring?
Some of those visitors did honest work. Others left with a deposit, a half-finished patch and a phone number that no longer rings.
Below are the three roofing problems Simonton homeowners run into most, the one question that exposes each, and how Holden Roofing answers it. Then come the seven questions callers from Simonton put to us before they book.
Problem One: The Roofer Who Grades a Wind-Beaten Roof From the Gravel Drive
In Simonton, wind and falling limbs do more damage than hail, and wind damage is the hardest kind to see from the ground. A gust breaks the adhesive seal under a shingle, the tab settles back down, and the roof looks normal from the yard.
The leak shows up months later, usually after the claim deadline has gotten closer. By then the storm date is harder to prove.
“Can You Show Me, Slope by Slope, Where the Wind Got Under My Shingles?”
A weak answer sounds like “it looks fine from here” or a printout of an aerial photo. Nobody can judge a broken seal strip without climbing up and gently testing the tabs by hand.
How Holden Roofing Answers It
We climb every slope, test the seals along the windward edges, and hand you a photo for each problem we mark. The attic gets checked too, because daylight through the decking tells a story the shingles hide.
If the roof came through the storm fine, the photos say that just as clearly, and you owe us nothing.
“Just a fabulous experience with Holden Roofing. We had several roofing companies providing quotes but Maynard with Holden was the only contractor to walk the rook and find the wind damage. He worked with our insurance company to ensure we were covered.”
Phil Conway, 5 stars, October 2020. Read this review on Google →
Problem Two: The Roofer Who Assumes Simonton Has No Permit Office
Simonton is an incorporated city, and the city says plainly that every structure inside its limits must be permitted. Crews used to working the unincorporated county roads nearby often skip that step here.
The permit office sits on FM 1093, and an unpermitted job can stall a sale or an insurance question years later. That problem lands on the owner, not the crew.
“Are You Pulling the City of Simonton Permit, or Am I?”
If the answer is “nobody out here checks” or “you can handle that part,” the roofer has told you how much attention the rest of your project will get.
How Holden Roofing Answers It
Holden Roofing checks with the Simonton permit office on FM 1093 before any re-roof is scheduled, and the permit goes in your job file. You do not have to make the call or stand in line.
The city is writing a new development code right now. Holden Roofing confirms the current requirement on every job instead of relying on last year’s answer.
Problem Three: The Roofer Who Fixes Where the Branch Landed and Stops There
When an oak or pecan limb comes down on a Simonton roof, the hole is only the obvious part. The impact cracks decking around it, and the same storm usually loosens shingles on slopes the branch never touched.
A quick patch over the hole leaves the rest undocumented. The carrier then pays for a patch and closes the file.
“Besides the Hole, What Else Did That Storm Do to My Roof, and Will You Prove It to My Insurer?”
Listen for decking checks, full-roof photos, supplements and a plan if the carrier pushes back. A roofer who only talks about the hole is pricing a repair, not protecting your claim.
How Holden Roofing Answers It
We tarp the opening, then document the whole roof and the property so the claim covers everything the storm did. That includes cracked sheathing, lifted shingles, crushed gutters, fence sections and screens.
When the carrier lowballs the scope, Holden Roofing goes back with photos and measurements, and we tell you honestly when it is worth pushing further.
“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Miles who not only put up my roof, help me fight my insurance company who didn’t want to pay, worked with me for it to be within my budget once they finally did, but also came out before a storm to help plug up the holes caused by my trees during the storm. I cannot recommend this company and specifically Miles, enough!”

The Seven Questions Simonton Homeowners Put to Holden Roofing Before They Book
These are the questions we hear on calls from Simonton, answered the same way we answer them on the phone. If another roofer stumbles through them, keep looking.
01“Our Valley Lodge House Took on River Water in Harvey. Should We Worry About the Roof Too?”
Yes, it is worth a look. About 250 Valley Lodge homes flooded in 2017, and many were repaired in pieces. Roofs on those houses can be older than the walls below them. A free inspection sorts out what is left.
02“Can You Roof the Barn and the Shop on the Same Trip?”
Yes. Barns, shops and equipment sheds get R-panel or standing seam metal from the same Holden Roofing crews, and we can price them alongside the house so one crew schedule covers the whole property.
03“Our Home in Twinwood Is Nearly New. Why Would It Need an Inspection?”
Because new roofs get storm damage too. A documented inspection after a wind event protects a young roof, and on a custom home in Orchid Estates, that record is worth having before the next claim.
04“How Long Does It Take Your Crew to Get to Simonton?”
About 25 minutes. The trip from 2128 First Street is close to 17 miles, north on SH 36 and then up FM 1489. After a big storm, active leaks get tarped first and inspections follow in order.
05“Do We Need a Windstorm Certificate This Close to the Coast?”
No. The Texas Department of Insurance does not include Fort Bend County in its designated catastrophe area, so no WPI-8 applies to a Simonton re-roof. Holden Roofing still builds for hurricane wind.
06“Will You Tell Me Not to File if the Damage Is Too Small?”
Yes, every time. We show you the photos, count the damage, and tell you plainly whether it is likely to clear your deductible. A claim that cannot win only adds to your record.
07“The Last Guy Offered to Cover My Deductible. Can Holden Roofing Match That?”
No. Under Texas House Bill 2102, passed in 2019, a contractor who waives or eats your deductible commits a Class B misdemeanor. Your insurer may also want proof of payment before depreciation is released.
Ask every roofer who turns into your drive these same seven questions. Then call Holden Roofing at (281) 344-9083 and compare the answers.
What You Actually Need From a Simonton Roofing Contractor, and Why Holden Roofing Is Built Around It
A roof in Simonton has to ride out Gulf hurricanes, heavy bottomland humidity and the occasional falling tree, and the company that installs it has to still be answering calls years later. Here is what that takes, piece by piece.
A Manufacturer Tier You Cannot Buy Your Way Into
Holden Roofing holds Owens Corning Platinum Preferred status, an invitation-only tier reached by fewer than 7 percent of Owens Corning Preferred Contractors. There is no fee that gets a roofer in.
Owens Corning reviews the quality of a contractor’s installs, its customer feedback and its business practices before it ever extends an invitation.
What the Platinum Warranty Covers on a Simonton Roof
Materials
Qualifying Owens Corning shingles such as Duration and Duration FLEX come with a limited lifetime warranty on the material itself. Duration is also rated to hold its warranty in winds up to 130 mph.
Workmanship
The Owens Corning Platinum Protection limited lifetime warranty is available only through Platinum contractors, and it covers the labor along with the shingles. A mistake on the install becomes the manufacturer’s problem, not yours.
Roofing Since 1961, With 100,000 Texas Roofs to Show for It
The Holden family began roofing around Houston in 1961, and the company’s headquarters still sits in Fort Bend County on First Street in Rosenberg. Today Holden Roofing runs seven Texas offices, from the Houston/Rosenberg headquarters to Spring, Austin, San Antonio, San Marcos, Temple and Dallas.
Click for moreClick to close
More than 100,000 roofs later, roughly 400 installers work for Holden Roofing statewide. Many have been on roofs for ten years or more, and a few for over thirty.
Reviews That Name the Project Manager Who Showed Up
The Holden Roofing Houston listing on Google shows 4.8 stars from 957 reviews, with 902 of them at five stars. Reading through them, one pattern stands out: people remember the project manager by name.
A No-Cost Inspection, and Nothing to Sign on the Porch
Holden Roofing looks at your Simonton roof for free and leaves the photo report with you, whether or not we ever do the work. No contract is waiting in the truck. Take the pictures, think it over, and call when you are ready.
What Holden Roofing Will Not Be: The Cheapest Quote on Your Table
Somebody will almost always come in under our price, and we would rather say that up front. Six nails per shingle, fresh flashing and pipe boots, proper attic airflow and a registered Platinum warranty all cost real money, and a shortcut roof skips them.
People who compared quotes often write about why they paid a little more.
“From first inspection through job completion, Mike was on top of every detail every step of the way… Mike professionally guided me through the process and dealt with my insurance company on my behalf with sterling result.”
“The salesmen “Chance” was extremely professional and was completely upfront. None of this, add on cost after the fact or surprise extra cost…. Their quote was slightly higher than the other two quotes I received. After researching the shingles proposed and overall quote. The proposal was actually lower than the others.”
How to Reach Holden Roofing From Simonton, and What Happens Next
From 2128 First Street in Rosenberg to the middle of Simonton is about 16.9 miles, or roughly 25 minutes behind the wheel. The usual route heads north on SH 36, the 36th Division Memorial Highway, toward Wallis and Fulshear, then turns up FM 1489 into town.
Pick up the phone and dial (281) 344-9083, or text us your roof, and someone at First Street puts your inspection on the calendar. The person who answers knows where FM 1093 meets FM 1489.
The First Visit
Your project manager walks the roof, checks the attic and looks over any barn, shop or patio cover you want included. You get photos and a plain verdict before the truck leaves: fix it, replace it, or leave it alone. Storm visits also cover whether a claim makes sense.

Roofing Services in Simonton: Retail Roofing and Storm Roofing From One Team
Some Simonton roofs simply wear out after decades of Gulf sun and humidity, and others get torn up in a single storm, and Holden Roofing handles both with the same crews. We take the paid-out-of-pocket replacement just as seriously as the insurance job.
The barn, the shop and the small repair get the same attention as the main house.
Retail Roofing in Simonton
Free Roof Inspection
A Holden Roofing inspection covers the shingle field, ridge and hips, valleys, every vent and pipe boot, wall and chimney flashing, the attic side of the decking, and the gutters. On acreage, we add the outbuildings you point out.
Book one before buying or selling a Simonton property, after any wind event, or when an older roof starts dropping granules. You pay nothing, and you are not locked into anything.
Roof Replacement
Every Holden Roofing replacement goes down to bare decking, swaps out damaged sheathing, and goes back up with synthetic underlayment, ice and water shield in valleys, new drip edge and flashing, balanced attic ventilation and a full Owens Corning system.
Most single-family shingle roofs in Simonton are torn off and finished in one day.
How a Replacement Day Unfolds on a Simonton Property
The crew covers landscaping, pool equipment and AC units first. Each decking sheet gets inspected before underlayment goes on, then the shingles. Before leaving, the crew runs magnets across the yard, the drive and the pasture edge closest to the house.
Roof Repair
Repair is the right call when the roof still has years left and the problem is contained: a split pipe boot, a lifted ridge cap, a limb dent or a leaking chimney flashing.
Holden Roofing quotes repairs as repairs. A $1,200 fix stays a $1,200 fix.
Emergency Roof Repair and Tarping
When a storm tears open a Simonton roof, Holden Roofing gets a tarp on it and seals the opening before more rain falls. A fast dry-in protects insulation, ceilings and wiring, and most Texas policies expect the homeowner to prevent further damage.
The camera comes out before the tarp does, so the damage is on record for your adjuster.
★★★★★ “Made contact with Maynard Lanham through another neighbor with whom he had done a roof inspection. He was very prompt in inspecting my roof, assessing the damage, and covering up the affected area so that no further wind or water damages occured. Shortly after, once a price was agreed upon, and the materials were ordered, he returned with his team and completed the repair. So far I’m very satisfied, haven’t had any issues since.”Storm Roofing in Simonton
Hail Damage Roof Repair
Hail reports inside Simonton are rare, but storms with hail have struck a few miles east, and a cell can shift. When hail does reach a roof, it bruises the mat, strips granules and dents soft metal. Holden Roofing photographs all three with a scale reference.
Wind Damage Roof Repair
Wind is the main roof threat in Simonton, with open prairie on one side and tall bottomland trees on the other. Gusts peel back shingle edges and break the seal strips. We test seals across every slope and tie what we find to the date of the storm.
Hurricane and Tropical Storm Damage
Simonton sits well inland, but Beryl showed in 2024 that a Gulf hurricane can still drop trees, damage roofs and flood streets this far from the coast. The Holden family has roofed Houston-area homes through hurricane seasons since 1961.
What the Adjuster Looks For
Creased tabs and broken seal strips
A wind claim depends on showing a pattern of lifted or creased shingles, not a single loose one. Holden Roofing chalks and photographs each damaged tab so the adjuster sees how widespread it is.
Limb impacts and cracked decking
Where a branch struck, the decking underneath often cracks. We check from the attic side and photograph any broken sheathing so it ends up in the approved scope.
Gutters, fences, outbuildings and other collateral damage
Bent gutters, downed fence runs, torn screens and damaged barn or shop roofs all belong on the claim. Holden Roofing lists every item so nothing gets dropped from the estimate.
Storms, Hurricanes and Hail in Simonton: What Hit, When, and What It Did to Your Roof
Simonton sits roughly a mile east of the Brazos River, inside the river’s 100-year floodplain, on flat coastal prairie where Gulf moisture feeds storms almost year-round. Rainfall tops 50 inches in a typical year here, and the Atlantic hurricane season stretches from June 1 to November 30.
For eleven years in a row, Texas has topped every state in major hail events, logging 902 in 2025 alone. Here, though, the long record is mostly wind and water.
During Hurricane Harvey, the Brazos gauge at Richmond hit its all-time high, 55.19 feet, on September 1, 2017.
The Simonton Storms Holden Roofing Still Hears About
The Flood Years, 1913 Through 2016
- 1913, October 1991 and December 1995.
The Brazos flooded Simonton repeatedly. About 100 homes took water in 1991, and the 1995 flood caused an estimated $2.5 million in damage.
- May 2016.
The Brazos flooded the town again. Simonton has since put in $95,000 worth of drainage pumps.
2017: Hurricane Harvey
- August 2017.
Around 250 homes in Valley Lodge filled with water and mud from the Brazos and a nearby creek, worse than the flood of 2016.
Hail Near Simonton, 2015 to 2022
- April 19, 2015.
One-inch hail fell at Weston Lakes, the latest hail report found within 10 miles of Simonton.
- May 9, 2019.
Baseball-size hail of 2.5 inches fell at Cinco Ranch, east of Fulshear. That storm missed Simonton.
- March 15, 2022.
Hail of 1.75 inches was reported at Cinco Ranch, again east of town.
2024: Hurricane Beryl
- July 8, 2024.
Beryl made landfall by Matagorda, a Category 1 storm carrying 90 mph winds. In Simonton, it brought downed trees and limbs, roof damage, flooded streets and fallen power lines.
A tree fell onto a truck in Simonton during the storm, and the driver survived.
Fort Bend’s highest measured gust was 76 mph at Sugar Land Regional Airport, with 4 to 8 inches of rain, and county outages peaked at 353,292 customers.
2025
No Simonton hail or wind event turned up in the 2025 records we reviewed. Statewide, Texas still logged 902 major hail events that year, so an inspection after any nearby storm is worth it.
2026 So Far
- February 14, 2026.
Sugar Land Regional Airport, well southeast of Simonton, clocked a 67 mph gust.
- April 30 to May 1, 2026.
Hail up to 1.5 inches hit Sugar Land overnight. That storm stayed east of Simonton.
- May 9, 2026.
Cinco Ranch and Katy, roughly 11 miles off, took quarter-size hail.
If one of these dates lines up with a night you remember and no one has been up on your roof since, book the free inspection.
“Garrick Long and Holden Roofing went above and beyond my expectations. Garrick helped us pursue a claim for hail damage with our insurance company, and he answered all my questions in a timely manner.”
What Those Storms Did to Simonton’s Roofs, Home by Home
Valley Lodge Homes From the Late 1950s Onward
Valley Lodge began around 1957 as the first commuter subdivision built outside Houston. Many homes were repaired after the 2016 and 2017 floods, but roofs did not always get replaced with the walls. Holden Roofing checks decking age and attic moisture closely here.
Country Homes, Barns and Shops on Acreage Tracts
Deed restrictions on many Simonton tracts allow horses, and lots run from under an acre to well past three. Big trees, long eaves and metal outbuildings mean limb strikes and wind-lifted panels. We inspect every roof on the property, not just the house.
Custom Homes in Twinwood and Orchid Estates
Orchid Estates is a gated section of 25 custom homes on 100-foot lots, priced from about $1.3 million to $2.35 million. These roofs are young and steep, with complex valleys. A documented inspection after a wind event protects them before small damage turns into a denied claim.
How Holden Roofing Handles Your Simonton Insurance Claim
Simonton claims go best when a single company carries them from the first ladder climb to the last depreciation check, and that is the way Holden Roofing works. The policy is still yours.
Our job is making sure the carrier sees the full picture.
Five Steps From Storm to New Roof in Simonton
Step 1. Full Property Inspection
The project manager covers the roof, the attic and the grounds, including outbuildings, then builds a photo report showing shingle damage, limb strikes, soft metals and fence or gutter damage.
Step 2. An Honest Call on Filing
You hear straight from us whether the damage will likely clear your carrier’s threshold. When it will not, we recommend skipping the claim.
Step 3. Meeting the Adjuster on the Roof
A Holden Roofing rep is there when the adjuster arrives and walks each slope alongside them, so the scope matches the damage.
Step 4. Reviewing the Scope and Sending Supplements
If the estimate leaves out decking, drip edge, ventilation, code items or the city permit, Holden Roofing files supplements backed by photos and measurements.
Step 5. Building, Invoicing and Releasing Depreciation
The crew builds exactly what the carrier approved, the final invoice goes in, and we chase the depreciation your policy withheld until it is paid.
When a Simonton Claim Is Denied or Underpaid
A denial after Beryl or a spring windstorm is rarely the last word. Plenty of Texas policies carry an appraisal clause, and a fresh inspection backed by better photos turns around a surprising number of denials.
When the evidence supports it, Holden Roofing has stuck with Fort Bend families through second inspections, appraisal, public adjusters and lawyers.
“I first filed a claim with my insurance back in 2019, but my hail and wind damage claims were repeatedly denied. Throughout that entire process, Holden Roofing was right there to help. I finally had my roof replaced in January 2026. Stan and the team exceeded my expectations, not just in fixing the roof, but in managing every small detail involved in the process.”
HB 2102 and Your Simonton Deductible
Your deductible is yours to pay, and Texas law has said so since House Bill 2102 passed in 2019. A roofer who waives, rebates or absorbs it commits a Class B misdemeanor, punishable by up to six months in jail and a $2,000 fine.
Before depreciation is released, a carrier may ask to see proof the deductible was paid. We will never offer to skip it. Instead, you learn your exact out-of-pocket number before the crew arrives.
| Typical Simonton storm claim item | Usually paid by insurance | What the homeowner pays |
|---|---|---|
| Stripping and hauling off the storm-damaged roof | Yes | Your deductible |
| New shingles, underlayment, starter strip and ridge | Yes, per the approved scope | Any upgrade you choose |
| Decking cracked by limbs or rotted by leaks | Often, with photos | Depends on the policy |
| Drip edge, valley protection and code ventilation | Often, through a supplement | Depends on the carrier |
| Barn, shop or patio cover roofs hit by the same storm | When listed on the policy and documented | Deductible and any policy limits |
| Gutters, screens and fences damaged in the storm | Yes, when documented | Deductible only |
| Moving up to a Class 4 shingle | Sometimes, by endorsement | The price difference |
| Recoverable depreciation | After the final invoice | Nothing, if the work is done on time |
Shingle, Metal, Tile and Flat Roofing for Simonton Homes
Across Simonton, Holden Roofing puts on Owens Corning shingles, standing seam and R-panel metal, stone-coated steel, clay or concrete tile, and TPO or modified bitumen on low slopes. Houses here lean toward architectural shingles, while barns and shops lean toward metal.
The residential and commercial divisions work to one crew standard, so a shop roof gets the same care as the house.
| Roofing system | Expected life in Simonton | Storm performance | Typical installed cost | Best fit in Simonton |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Owens Corning Duration architectural shingle | 15 to 25 years | 130 mph wind warranty, StreakGuard algae resistance | $9,000 to $26,000+ | Valley Lodge homes and most acreage houses |
| Owens Corning Duration FLEX (Class 4) | 20 to 30 years | UL 2218 Class 4, SBS polymer-modified, 130 mph | $11,000 to $30,000+ | Simonton owners chasing a Class 4 insurance discount |
| Standing seam metal | 40 to 70 years | Excellent against wind, hail can leave cosmetic dents | $18,000 to $43,000+ | Country homes, long-term owners, main barns |
| R-panel and stone-coated steel | Long service life | Very good in wind | Quoted per building | Shops, equipment sheds, horse barns and lean-tos |
| Clay or concrete tile | 50+ years | Good, single tiles can crack | $25,000 to $58,000+ | Custom estate homes in Twinwood and Orchid Estates |
| TPO, modified bitumen, coatings (low slope) | 15 to 30 years | Good over proper insulation board | Quoted per project | Porch roofs, flat additions and commercial buildings |
ShingleOwens Corning Shingles on Simonton Roofs
Duration
Duration is the shingle Holden Roofing installs on most Simonton houses, and its nailing strip is the main reason. StreakGuard algae resistance helps too, since the damp air near the river grows dark streaks on shaded, north-facing slopes.
Click for moreClick to close
Inside the SureNail Strip
SureNail is a woven band built into the nailing area of each Duration shingle. It holds the fasteners tight through years of heating and cooling and supports a 130 mph wind warranty, the figure that matters most in a wind town like Simonton.
Duration FLEX
Duration FLEX is made with SBS polymer-modified asphalt, so it bends under a hailstone instead of cracking, and it carries the highest UL 2218 rating, Class 4.
What It Takes to Pass Class 4
A Class 4 shingle survives a 2-inch steel ball dropped twice from 20 feet onto the same spot with no cracking. Once that roof is on, Section 2253 of the Texas Insurance Code obliges your insurer to offer a premium discount.
Around Houston and Fort Bend, that discount commonly lands between 15 and 22 percent of the wind and hail portion. On a large country home, the savings repeat every renewal.
MetalMetal Roofing in Simonton
Metal belongs in Simonton, on the barns and shops that dot the acreage tracts and increasingly on the houses beside them. Standing seam shrugs off hurricane wind, R-panel keeps a working barn dry at a sensible price, and stone-coated steel gives a shingle look with metal strength.
Holden Roofing repairs existing metal roofs too, from loose fasteners to rusted panels and failed trim.
TileTile Roofing in Simonton
Clay and concrete tile fits the larger custom homes going up in Twinwood, and good tile usually outlives the underlayment beneath it. When a tile roof leaks, the cause is most often tired underlayment or flashing, not the tile.
Holden Roofing lifts sound tile, replaces the underlayment, swaps broken pieces and relays the roof.
Low-slopeFlat and Low-Slope Roofing in Simonton
Covered porches, flat additions, shop lean-tos and commercial buildings call for low-slope roofing, which the commercial division at Holden Roofing handles in TPO, modified bitumen and coatings. A sound but worn flat roof can often gain years from a coating instead of a tear-off.
“Holden Roofing did an amazing job repairing my metal roof. They provided a thorough quote with pricing broke out for immediate repairs needed and maintenance that could be completed at a later date. The also offered drywall repair. John Tapia was very responsive and extremely helpful. I will recommend Holden Roofing and John to anyone I know that needs a roof or repair!”
What a New Roof Costs in Simonton in 2026
Architectural shingles on a typical Simonton home run $9,000 to $26,000+ in 2026, and Class 4 Duration FLEX runs $11,000 to $30,000+. Standing seam metal comes in at $18,000 to $43,000+, and tile at $25,000 to $58,000+.
Repairs range from $1,200 to $8,500+, depending on how much area is damaged and whether decking needs replacing.
| Simonton home profile | Roof size | Asphalt shingles | Standing seam metal | Tile roofing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Older single-story home, Valley Lodge | 18 to 24 squares | $9,000 to $18,000+ | $18,000 to $31,000+ | $25,000 to $40,000+ |
| Country home on acreage off FM 1489 or FM 1093 | 26 to 34 squares | $13,000 to $24,000+ | $27,000 to $41,000+ | $36,000 to $54,000+ |
| Custom estate home, Twinwood Orchid Estates | 38 squares and up, steep | $19,000 to $26,000+ | $36,000 to $43,000+ | $46,000 to $58,000+ |
| Roof repair: limb strike, wind-lifted shingles, pipe boots, flashing | Under 1 to 3 squares | $1,200 to $8,500+ | $1,500 to $8,500+ | $1,800 to $8,500+ |
What Pushes a Simonton Estimate Higher or Lower
Roof size and pitch, layers coming off, decking condition, steep custom designs and added outbuildings all move the number. Every Holden Roofing estimate lists tear-off, decking, underlayment, ventilation and the permit.
A cheaper bid that leaves out lines usually leaves out work.

Simonton Homeowners on Holden Roofing: 957 Reviews, 4.8 Stars
Across 957 reviews on the Holden Roofing Houston listing, the same themes keep coming back: Beryl claims that got handled, windstorm damage fixed beyond the roof, and job sites left clean.
“They Coordinated Everything Beryl Broke”
“Due to Beryl we were in need of roof replacement. In addition, we had some damage to garage doors, windows, wood flooring among other things. The folks from Holden Roofing (Stephen and Chance) were both extremely helpful in helping us arrange all the repairs. They were knowledgeable in the details of coordinating all the repairs and navigating insurance claims, without which I would have been lost…. Lastly, I’ve had many many contractors through our house doing various things over the last sever years, and Holden left the job site CLEAN. It’s refreshing that I didn’t have to back through the work area to clean up after the workers, or finish little details that were missed. They cleaned and finished everything right.”
“The Wind Took More Than Shingles”
“After a windstorm our roof, fence, and garage door were damaged. Holden Roofing helped us in every stage. With Jason Clark’s professional and solution oriented approach, all the replacements and repairs were done timely and perfectly. We were extremely pleased with the entire process.”
“The Wind Took More Than Shingles”
“Wesley Lackey did an awesome job of taking care of us after we had hail damage. He took all of the worry with dealing with insurance and coordinating all the vendors. He replaced the roof, installed a new skylight, replaced some screens, roof vents, some gutters, metal patio cover, garage and shed doors, and restained the damage fence.

“Water Came In, and They Fixed Inside and Out”
“Mike Gibbons and Holden Roofing did a fantastic job replacing our wind damaged roof and interior repairs caused by water damage from the leaking roof. Mike was in constant contact and helped with every step of the process. Their crews were always on time and very professional.”
Simonton Is Served by Holden Roofing’s Rosenberg Office
The Holden Roofing office that covers Simonton is our headquarters in Rosenberg, 2128 First Street, some 16.9 miles and 25 minutes to the south. Project managers from that office cover northwest Fort Bend County.
Simonton counted 647 residents at the 2020 Census, and the latest Census estimate puts it near 914 people in 318 housing units.
James Simonton and his brother bought 4,000 acres here in the 1840s, and the town’s official founding year is 1850. The Simonton Roundup Rodeo arena went up in 1963, and Deng Xiaoping watched a rodeo there on February 2, 1979.

Roofing Permits in Simonton
The City of Simonton requires a permit for all construction, and its own page says every structure in the city must be permitted. Holden Roofing checks with the city’s permit office at 35011 FM 1093 before any re-roof begins.
The city adopted an interim Special Use Permit step in 2026 while it writes a Unified Development Code. That step targets site plans, plats and new building permits. We confirm the current rule on each job anyway.
Fort Bend County is not in the TDI designated catastrophe area, so no WPI-8 windstorm certificate is needed. Any deed restriction or property owner rules on your tract still apply, and Holden Roofing works within them.
Storm Chasers Knock in Simonton Too. Here’s How to Tell Holden Roofing From the Rest
Holden Roofing reps do knock on Simonton doors after major storms, and we would rather tell you that than pretend otherwise. Most people have no idea their roof is damaged until someone climbs up.
The difference is what you can verify after the knock.
- A real office nearby. Holden Roofing’s headquarters is at 2128 First Street in Rosenberg, in Fort Bend County. Ask whoever knocks next for a street address.
- A credential you can look up. Search the Owens Corning contractor locator for Platinum Preferred roofers near Rosenberg, and you will find Holden Roofing listed.
- Reviews from years, not weeks. 957 Google reviews gathered over many storm seasons, not a profile created last month.
- No deductible deals. Under Texas HB 2102, waiving a deductible is a crime, and an offer to do it is a warning sign.
- No contract at the door. You see a written scope first. Nobody asks you to sign a contingency agreement before the inspection.
- Crews who stay. Around 400 Holden Roofing installers work across Texas year-round, not hires who leave town with the storm.
- A permit pulled in your name. Ask any knocker whether he knows Simonton requires one. Holden Roofing does.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hiring a Roofer in Simonton TX
Call (281) 344-9083
What does a roofer in Simonton TX charge to replace a roof?
Plan on $9,000 to $26,000+ for architectural shingles on a typical Simonton house in 2026. Class 4 Duration FLEX runs $11,000 to $30,000+, standing seam metal $18,000 to $43,000+, and clay or concrete tile $25,000 to $58,000+.
Repairs run $1,200 to $8,500+. Every Holden Roofing quote starts with a free inspection and ends with a written, itemized estimate.
Do I need a city permit to re-roof in Simonton?
Yes. The City of Simonton requires permits for all construction and says every structure in the city must be permitted. Holden Roofing confirms the requirement with the permit office on FM 1093 and handles it before work starts.
Did Hurricane Beryl damage roofs in Simonton?
Yes. Beryl landed near Matagorda on July 8, 2024, as a Category 1 hurricane with 90 mph winds. Simonton saw downed trees and limbs, roof damage, flooded streets and fallen power lines.
Wind-loosened shingles from Beryl are often invisible from the yard, so an inspection is the only way to know.
Is a metal roof a good choice for a house in Simonton?
For many Simonton homes, yes. Standing seam metal lasts 40 to 70 years, stands up well to hurricane wind and matches the barns and shops on many tracts. It costs more up front, $18,000 to $43,000+, so Holden Roofing prices it beside shingles for comparison.
Should I get an inspection when a storm only hit nearby towns?
Yes, if it brought high wind or hail within a few miles. Most recent hail near Simonton landed around Cinco Ranch and Katy, and storm cells drift. A free Holden Roofing inspection tells you whether your roof caught the edge of it.
How long does a roof last in Simonton’s climate?
Count on roughly 15 to 25 years from architectural shingles in Simonton, 20 to 30 from Class 4, 40 to 70 from standing seam, and over 50 from tile. River humidity, more than 50 inches of yearly rain and hurricane wind shorten roof life compared with drier parts of Texas.
Are Class 4 shingles worth it for a Simonton home?
For most owners, yes. Insurers must offer a discount on Class 4 roofs under Section 2253 of the Texas Insurance Code, and around Houston and Fort Bend it often trims 15 to 22 percent off the wind and hail premium. Holden Roofing installs Owens Corning Duration FLEX.
How many days will my Simonton roof replacement take?
A shingle roof on a typical Simonton home is usually finished in a single day. Steep custom roofs, multi-layer tear-offs and added outbuildings can stretch it to two days. Metal and tile generally take two to five.
