Roofing in Uvalde
Uvalde is the seat of Uvalde County, on US 90 and US 83 west of Hondo. Between the Nueces and Frio rivers, with Garner State Park and the Concan area to the north, it is the gateway between the brush country of South Texas and the southern edge of the Hill Country.
In town you find brick ranch homes and older frame houses with shingle roofs, while the ranches and river properties around Uvalde lean heavily on metal. Summers here are long and very hot, the sun is intense, and storms coming off the Hill Country can bring hail, strong wind and heavy rain in a short time.
Alanis Roofing is based in Devine that serves San Antonio and the rest of South Texas. Andres Alanis has 26 years in roofing and 13 years with his own crew, with more than 500 jobs completed. Estimates are free and emergency calls are answered 24/7, in English or Spanish.

01
Heat and sun: the main roof problem in Uvalde
Uvalde summers are some of the hottest in the region, and that heat is hard on asphalt shingles. They dry out, crack and shed granules, and the sealant that holds the tabs down gets weaker, so the next strong wind lifts them.
Good attic ventilation (ridge vents or turbines) helps a shingle roof last longer, and a lighter colored metal roof reflects more of that heat. During a free estimate, Andres will check your attic ventilation and explain which option fits your home and budget.
02
Metal roofing for ranches and river properties
Ranches, barns and river homes around Uvalde have used metal roofing for generations. It holds up to wind, sheds heavy rain fast and needs very little upkeep, which matters on property you do not visit every day.
Alanis Roofing installs standing seam metal on homes and cabins and R-panel on barns and shops, in colors such as bronze, charcoal, red, blue and silver galvalume. Details like ridge caps, valleys and pipe boots are sealed carefully so the roof stays dry in a hard rain.
03
Storms off the Hill Country
Storms can build over the Hill Country north of Uvalde and move south fast, with hail, gusty wind and intense rain. After a storm, check for missing shingles, dents in vents and turbines, and water stains on ceilings.
For an active leak, call the 24/7 emergency line. Uvalde is a longer drive from our base, so if water is coming in, we will help you protect the home first and then schedule the repair or replacement with a clear, free estimate.
