Shreveport Roof Pros provides professional roof replacement in Shreveport, LA for residential and commercial properties across the Ark-La-Tex. Replacing a roof in Caddo Parish is mostly an argument about what sits under the shingles. Nearly sixty percent of the housing here went up before 1980 and close to forty percent before 1970, so the deck is the variable and the covering is the easy part.
That vintage means plank decking on a good share of houses and thin early sheathing on much of the rest. Plank moves, gaps open as the boards dry out, and a gun set for half-inch plywood drives straight through a knot without ever setting the nail. We test fastener grip in several places before quoting. Where the deck will not hold we scab half-inch CDX over the boards, at a per-sheet price agreed before anything comes off.
The covering decision follows the climate rather than the catalog. This parish sits roughly a hundred and ninety miles from the nearest Gulf shoreline and well outside the wind-borne debris region the code reserves for the coast, so the uplift package sold hard in the south of this state has no local rule standing behind it here. What does carry real evidence on Caddo Parish is hail, and impact class is where we start the conversation.
Underlayment gets specified by exposure rather than by habit. Synthetic goes across the field. Self-adhered membrane runs the valleys and the eave, and we hold it to the first course line rather than sheeting the entire deck, because nothing in this climate builds a snowpack to dam behind. That saved material does more good going into the decking we just found, or into the intake ventilation almost every older house here is missing.
Timing is a real lever in a place averaging ninety-nine days a year at or above ninety degrees. A tear-off finished between April and October gets a full season of heat to set the factory sealant strip before the median first freeze, which lands around the eighteenth of November. Anything laid in January gets its rake and ridge courses hand-sealed in roof cement, and that appears as a line on your invoice.
You get the permit taken out in our name through the Shreveport office at Government Plaza, an inspection run under Chapters 8 and 9 of the residential code, dated photographs of every plane before and after, signed lien releases, the warranty on a sheet of its own, and one booked return visit the following spring.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — Class 4 impact-rated laminate shingles tested to UL 2218, self-adhered eave membrane held to the first course line, 26-gauge painted steel drip edge lapped over the underlayment, half-inch CDX sheathing scabbed over one-by plank decking, tapered polyiso built to a quarter-inch-per-foot drain slope, gutter trough in .032 aluminum sized for a static ice load — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Shreveport and nearby communities including Bossier City, Minden, Red Chute, Springhill.

Materials, equipment and how we do roof replacement
The difference between roof replacement that lasts and roof replacement that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with Class 4 impact-rated laminate shingles tested to UL 2218, self-adhered eave membrane held to the first course line, 26-gauge painted steel drip edge lapped over the underlayment, half-inch CDX sheathing scabbed over one-by plank decking, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Shreveport job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the Ark-La-Tex means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Shreveport Chooses Shreveport Roof Pros
- ✓We quote impact class before wind class, because this parish sits nowhere near the 140 mph ultimate design wind speed the code uses to draw a wind-borne debris region.
- ✓No eave membrane runs the whole deck on a Shreveport house. Nothing here builds a snowpack to dam behind, and the plan shows you where that membrane stops paying for itself.
- ✓Winter inspections are done at the thaw rather than during the event, because a glazed roof hides every defect it just caused and walking one is how people get hurt.
- ✓Fascia is measured and priced alongside the gutter, since a trough packed with ice pulls through soft pine long before it pulls a hanger out of anything.
The standards behind roof replacement
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The roof replacement work we do in Shreveport follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
Every roof replacement project in Shreveport gets the same attention, whether it is a single room or a full commercial job. We show up on schedule, keep the site clean, and stand behind the work — the estimate is free and there is no pressure.
