Roofing Contractor near me in the Houston, Richmond and Katy Texas area!

Looking for a Roofing Contractor?



The Texas area is saturated with many roofing contractors and when there's a major storm you'll find our state creates a gravitational pull for all of the roofers in the U.S.  It can be a very difficult task choosing a roofing contractor especially since many homeowners aren't educated with the roofing process and contractors can be hungry as ever after recently "robbing Peter."  These situations have created a lot of distrust in the roofing business and has knocked our industry down closer to the automobile sales profession.  This is one of the contributing factors that consumers have been led to lean their trust in organizations like Yelp, Google, Facebook and Nextdoor.

At Kingdom Roof and Fence, we have been roofing for a decade and make sure every client is informed and educated regarding the "good, better and best" products in our marketplace.  Starting with the vortex of air circulation in your roofing system to the synthetic underlayment of your shingles.  Later in the process we discuss the different shingle quality options available from wind/hail ratings to designer color sequences and high profile ridge caps.  This whole process can be very confusing and most homeowners here in our Richmond, Houston and Katy Texas area will only have this done once during the ownership of their home. You can rest assured that we are on your side and will help you every step of the way with professional recommendations and expert options.

Most of the greater Houston Texas area thinks that getting your roof approved for replacement by your insurance company is reserved for properties that have been a landing spot for large hail.  This actually isn't exactly the only criteria for approval as we at Kingdom Roof and Fence have helped our clients get many roofs bought from wind damage over the years and minimal hail every few years.  The truth is, most roofing systems that were installed by a builder are only expected to last for a maximum of 20 years.  This means, if you have a roof that's already seen 10 Texas summers, you really need to take advantage of our free inspection by our pros.  Once you can see water damage inside of your home, the leak will have already forged a significant trail behind the scenes.

We try to make it as easy as possible for our clients to do business with us.  Simply give us a call at 346-291-4492 to set up your free roof inspection and allow us to give your home a clean bill of health.  It's important to also remember that your roofing system should be caulked and sealed every three years. If you haven't done this or just would like to have us come out and take a look, we'd love to!  Do you have a steep roof?  No Problem!  Just need a simple roof repair?  Check out our $199 special!  Once again, give us a call at our office or visit us online at kingdomroofandfence.com for more information.  We will be looking forward to hearing from you.

Richmond Fence Contractor / Richmond Fence Company / 346-291-4492


Kingdom Roof and Fence is a roofing and fencing contractor in the Houston area located in Richmond, TX.  It's been an amazing experience helping our clients get the best available fence fit into their budget. Our continued goal is to keep providing the best fence solutions for our clients and their friends and family.  Here's a few things that you should consider before making a decision on replacing your fence.

Fence Posts

Choosing what type of fence posts is very important because without a post, your fence will be laying on the ground.  The two typical fence post selections on wood fencing are wood posts and metal posts.  Builder grade fences are installed with wood posts which require the concrete to come up to your ground level.  Often times these wood 4x4 fence posts have two distinct flaws.  The first is that the water from a rain saturates the bottom of the posts and begins the rotting process. This is the number one cause of a wooden fence post breaking at the bottom.  Secondly, the wooden fence post do not make a very good support for a gate which is a pain and an embarrassment to open for you or your guests after less than a year.

We would like to recommend that your fence is built with metal fence posts. These posts will have the most important structure of your fence secure for life!  This includes windstorms, flooding, freezing, animal abuse and children's horseplay.  With your metal post installation, you can rest easy that your next home project will not be a fence repair.  We also would like to point out the benefits of using metal fence posts for your gate construction.  Metal brackets that hold up your gate are much stronger and can easily be adjusted to the post compared to a traditional wood post.

Next we would like to highlight a quality issue that our potential clients are often unaware of, the removal of existing posts and the installation of the new ones.  Most contractors make the predictable corner cutting or sawing off the existing posts and then setting the new posts a few inches to a foot away.  This process will leave uneven sections and wasted materials in addition to unsupported corners.  Another area of interest is the application of the concrete.  You'll see many fly by night contractors pour concrete mix inside of a hole and then pour water into the same hole for mixing.  This will NEVER set correctly and no matter how much you attempt to mix it up with a stick.

Kingdom Roof and Fence removes all of the concrete from each existing post, set's the 6' fence posts at exactly 8' apart and the 8' fence posts at exactly 6' apart.  The difference is very noticeable once you can see the final product and it's too expensive to do it again.  We also mix our concrete in a bucket or wheel barrel correctly before pouring it into the holes to set the posts.  These are two steps of the fence building process that will separate your fence from the competition and leave you feeling proud at the conclusion of the project.

Fence Options

Here's the cosmetic appearances that serve multiple purposes to your new fence.  We're going to highlight both the options and their structural significance to your new fence.  Below you'll see a detailed description of pickets, kick board, trim pieces and gates.

Pickets - Pressure treated pine is a great option but the cedar pickets are the obvious upgrade.  The harder wood (pine) will prevent moisture from saturating into it but it cracks easily after an extended period of time for the same reasons.  The cedar fence pickets is a softer wood and doesn't warp or deteriorate as easy.  This softer wood is a better choice for your fence and when protected by a stain or sealant will last much longer and look much better.  We also offer clean cedar which has no imperfections

Kick Board - This option is (also referred to as the rot board) a pressure treated pine 2x6 that is installed at the bottom of your fence.  This option elevates your pickets 3'' off of the ground and prevents "wicking."  Like a candle wick, your fence pickets start grabbing water from the bottom and then the rotting process begins.  Take a look at any old fence picket and this evidence will become apparent.  Another great feature of installing the kick board, it will prevent your pickets from being damaged by weed eaters.  Consider this option which will protect your fence long term more than any other addition.

Trim Pieces - Most fences have a 1x4 trim piece at the top that covers up your pickets and makes your fence look beautiful.  This top trim board is essential for a straight fence and protects the top of your pickets from splitting and warping. A 1x2 trim piece in addition to the 1x4 at the top of your fence is known as "double trim."  This looks great and is typically used with a "top cap" which is a 2x6 or 2x8 cedar board.  These modifications can be made later after the fence is built or will be added at the time of your new fence installation.

Gates - This is the gateway into your property and the focal point of most fences.  When it comes to gates, they really separate the men from the boys besides the division of your front and back yard.  Our pride and joy are 6' gates cut out of 8' fences.  Gates should be constructed with a 3 hinge system and on a supporting post or posts that are less than two feet apart.  Kingdom Roof and Fence build every fence and guarantee them for 3 years.  This means that they will open and close like the day they were made years later.

Insurance Claim Assistance

One of the most important aspects of the roofing process is insurance claim assistance.  The first step is to make sure if calling a claim in on your insurance is actually a good idea.  If you call a claim in on your insurance and the damage on your doesn't get approve while the other less expensive items do, you will be in worst shape than before you filed your claim.  This is because the items that will be approved for replacement will be under your deductible and then you'll have to replace them out of pocket before your insurance company will insure them again.  This is one reason that you need a professional to look at your project and make sure you're making the right decision.

After the decision of whether or not to file a claim with your insurance has been made, the next step is for your professional roofing contractor to meet the insurance adjuster at your property.  The insurance adjuster works for the insurance company and his employer makes sure that their adjuster is concerned about their bottom line.  It's important for you to remember that you need someone who's knowledgeable with the insurance process that works for you and has your best interests in mind.  That's where Kingdom Roof and Fence comes into to play.
