Exposed metal corrodes first
Nail heads, drip edge, pipe-boot collars, vent caps and gutter hangers take the salt before the shingles show a thing.
La Porte is one of more than 50 Greater Houston communities served by Triple G Roofing & Construction, a family-owned father-and-son team based in Humble, TX, in business since 1973. Roof replacement and repair, storm damage, siding, gutters, patio covers and fences for bayside homes — with a free inspection and a written estimate before any work starts.
Sylvan Beach to Lomax to Fairmont Park — each part of town tells us what to look for.
La Porte sits where the Houston Ship Channel opens into Galveston Bay, and that address decides how a roof ages. Sylvan Beach takes the bay wind head-on. Lomax, a separate town until it consolidated with La Porte in 1980, kept its older, more spread-out streets. Fairmont Park and the subdivisions along Fairmont Parkway filled in through the 1970s and 80s, which is why the typical house in La Porte dates to the early 1980s and is now on its second or third roof.
The San Jacinto Monument stands at the north edge of town — the Battleship Texas left its berth beside it for Galveston in 2022 — and the Fred Hartman Bridge carries SH 146 over the channel to Baytown. When Ike came ashore in 2008, its surge ran up this shoreline; Shoreacres next door saw most of its homes flood. Roofing in La Porte means planning for the salt, the wind and the water, not just the sun.

Inland roofs mostly wear out from the top down. Near Galveston Bay they fail from the edges and the fasteners first. Here is the order we check things in.
Nail heads, drip edge, pipe-boot collars, vent caps and gutter hangers take the salt before the shingles show a thing.
Steady southeast wind off the bay works at rakes, eaves and ridge caps until the seal strip lets go — then one gust takes a row.
Bay humidity plus a Texas summer means attics that never dry out, curling shingles and algae streaking on the north slope.
A roof already loosened by salt and wind is the one that loses decking in a hurricane or a spring hail cell.
Roofs are the heart of the business, but the same crew that replaces your shingles also builds the patio cover, hangs the gutters, replaces the rotted fascia and sets the cedar fence. One estimate, one schedule, and Tim on site.
Hurricane season on Galveston Bay is not hypothetical. When a storm comes through La Porte, the paperwork can be as stressful as the damage. We take that part from your plate to ours — documenting, meeting the adjuster, and explaining the policy in plain English.
Whether a claim is approved, and for how much, is the insurance carrier's decision. Our job is to make sure the damage is documented properly and that you understand your options before you sign anything.

Tim and the great crew of Triple G Roofing & Construction just finished replacing my roof, damaged from Beryl. Tim took his time and explained everything regarding my policy so I could understand it. He was also thorough with an incomparable work ethic. He explained all the little extras that he included with his work. His crew covered all vegetation, showed up just before daylight and got to work immediately and stayed until almost dark. The next morning they completed the job in just a few hours. They did a great cleanup job of the whole work area, and to top it off, Tim, himself, actually trimmed some branches from my overgrown front tree to prevent future damage to my new roof.
I am thankful my daughter saw Triple G's signs and I called them. My insurance had said my roof was NOT covered. I called Triple G, and after meeting I asked Tim to see what he could do. He went to bat with pictures and phone calls and my insurance reversed their decision. On top of that I got a great quality, beautiful new roof. A friend owns a roofing company in CC, TX. He had me ask for certain things to assure I was getting the best quality underlayment, drip edge and shingles. Tim's company was already doing all of those things. The crew was hard working, took care of my property and did a great cleanup. I will recommend them to anyone. Thanks Tim, your dad and the guys!
Tim and his crew did a great job. He found more damage and helped with the insurance claim. I felt safe and taken care of. Thanks Tim!

Salt-laden air attacks exposed metal first: nail heads, flashing, drip edge, vent caps and gutter hangers corrode years before the shingles themselves wear out, and a rusted fastener is a loose shingle waiting for the next bay wind. On a bayside inspection we check every piece of exposed metal and every shingle edge for uplift, photograph what we find and put it in writing.
We can. Triple G Roofing & Construction brings more than 50 years of claims-handling and adjuster experience to every storm job: we document the damage, meet the adjuster on the roof and explain the paperwork in plain English. Whether a claim is approved, and for how much, is the insurance carrier's decision — our job is to make sure the damage is documented properly and you understand your options.
Baytown is across the Fred Hartman Bridge, Deer Park and Pasadena are up the highway, and the rest of Greater Houston is a short drive. We cover more than 50 communities in all.
