Lytle, TX
Roof replacement, shingle and metal roofs and 24/7 emergency repair for Lytle homes and properties. Free estimates and same-day replies from a roofer one exit down I-35.
Lytle sits right on I-35 between Devine and San Antonio, and it is one of the few towns in Texas that reaches into three counties: Atascosa, Medina and Bexar. For homeowners, that means a mix of in-town neighborhoods, newer homes built as the San Antonio area grows south, and rural acreage on the edges of town.
Most homes in Lytle are single-story brick or frame houses with shingle roofs, and many properties outside town have metal roofs on the house, a shop or a barn. All of them face the same South Texas conditions: extreme summer heat, strong sun, spring hail and wind, and short, heavy rains.
Alanis Roofing is based in Devine, the next town down I-35. Andres Alanis has 26 years in roofing and 13 years with his own crew, and he gives free estimates, same-day replies and 24/7 emergency help, in English or Spanish.
Most Lytle roofs are shingle, and in this climate shingles usually wear out from the sun before anything else. Edges curl, granules wash into the gutters, and the roof starts to look patchy. Hail speeds that up by bruising shingles in spots you cannot see from the ground.
A replacement with Alanis Roofing includes full tear-off, deck check, new drip edge and pipe boots, ventilation with ridge vents or turbines, and 30-year shingles. The crew cleans up nails and debris every day, which matters on a family property with kids and pets.
Storms that move across South Texas often roll right along the I-35 corridor, bringing wind, hail and short bursts of heavy rain. Wind can lift shingle tabs and peel back ridge caps, and once that happens the next rain finds its way inside.
Because Lytle is so close to our base, we can usually get to an emergency fast. Call the 24/7 line, we help stop the leak, and then Andres gives you a clear plan and a free estimate for the permanent fix.
Metal is a strong choice on the open land around Lytle. Standing seam panels with hidden fasteners give a home a clean, modern look, and R-panel is a durable, practical option for shops and barns.
Metal reflects more heat than dark shingles, handles wind well and sheds heavy rain quickly. It costs more up front, so we price both shingle and metal options during your free estimate.
Why Alanis in Lytle
Lytle is roughly a 15 minute drive up I-35 from Devine, where Andres lives. That makes it easy to come out for an estimate the same day and to respond fast when a storm causes a leak.
You deal with the owner from start to finish, in English or Spanish. The estimate is free with no visit fee, the job site is kept clean and orderly, and payment is cash, check or Zelle.
