We check your roof and show you what we find. See what the inspection covers. If hail or wind damaged your roof, our insurance claims page explains how we help.

Northeast metro at I-35 / 1604

Selma sits where Bexar, Guadalupe, and Comal counties meet, near I-35 and Loop 1604. Newer subdivisions and commercial corridors mix with established streets. Most homes wear architectural shingles; a few use metal or tile accents.

County lines matter for paperwork more than for weather — the same hail that hits Live Oak and Schertz hits Selma. We confirm which city or county office covers your parcel before we pull a permit.

Rattler Roofing is family-owned and based in San Antonio. Mike Bailey named the company after the Rattlers at Reagan High School and St. Mary’s University. About 70% of our work is roofing; about 30% is remodeling. Call or text (210) 418-ROOF, 7 AM to 7 PM.

Corridor hail and ridge wind

Wind peeling tabs along the ridge is a common call after spring storms. Hail bruising can be house-wide on newer builder-grade shingles. We photograph every slope and explain repair versus replacement with the evidence in hand.

Architectural shingles from brands such as GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, and Malarkey are what most homes here wear and what we replace most often, including Class 3 and Class 4 impact-rated options. Every full replacement includes our 10-year workmanship warranty. See Roof Replacement.

See Metal Roofing and Roof Ventilation.

Repair, replacement, insurance

Targeted roof repair often fixes a few wind-torn tabs, a failed pipe boot, or a localized leak. When the field is brittle or hail-bruised across slopes, we recommend replacement, tear off to the deck, replace soft wood we document with photos, and install synthetic underlayment with ice-and-water shield in valleys. Every full replacement includes our 10-year workmanship warranty.

After a storm, stay off the roof. We document damage and can meet your adjuster. You file the claim; Texas law does not allow a contractor to waive or rebate your deductible. See Hail Damage Roof Repair, Wind Damage Roof Repair, and Insurance Claims.

Permits in Selma

The City of Selma publishes residential building and re-roof processes and registers contractors. Because parcels can sit near county lines, we verify the exact authority for your address. Local city registration is what we follow — not a Texas statewide roofing license claim.

How a job usually runs

Every job starts with a free on-roof inspection. We get up on the roof, photograph problem areas, and go over the photos with you before anyone orders materials. You get a written estimate. If a repair will protect the house, we say so. If the roof is past that point, we show you why. On tear-offs we remove the old roofing down to the deck, replace soft wood we find and document with photos, and install synthetic underlayment with ice-and-water shield in valleys. Debris is hauled away. Licensed with the City of San Antonio and other municipalities where permits are required, and insured. Hours are 7 AM to 7 PM, every day — call or text.

Builder-grade roofs and HOA colors

Newer Selma subdivisions often have builder-grade architectural shingles that look fine from the street until hail season hits. We check for manufacturer requirements on underlayment and ventilation when we replace. If an HOA controls color or profile, we note that in the estimate so material orders match the architectural committee — not just the cheapest pallet at the yard.

Paying for the work

Financing through outside lenders (credit approval required), or cash / check / card. See Financing.

What we look for on a Selma roof

On a typical Selma inspection we check every slope, ridge, hip, valley, pipe boot, wall flashing, and chimney counterflashing. Soft decking underfoot gets marked and photographed. Granule loss, bruise marks that show as dark spots when shingles are flexed, and creased tabs along the windward edge all go into the report. On metal we look for fastener back-out, open seams, dent patterns from hail, and failed sealant at transitions. You get the photos with the written estimate so you can see what we saw — not a generic pitch. If a small repair will keep water out for years, we say so. If the roof is at the end of its life in Bexar / Guadalupe / Comal’s hail climate, we show you why a full tear-off is the better spend.
