Why Ridgeline Roofing Co. of Dallas Is Highland Village’s Preferred Specialty Roofing Company
We’ve worked on Highland Village homes for over 42 years, long before the shops at The Shops at Highland Village went up. Our crews know the difference between a roof that faces the open lake and one tucked inland near Doubletree Ranch Road, and we price accordingly, not with a blanket estimate that ignores what your specific elevation faces.
Highland Village homeowners call us back. We’ve earned a strong local reputation through repeat work in the same neighborhoods, neighbors recommending us to neighbors, and our 90-Day Done Right Promise - if it’s not right, we come back and make it right, no paperwork, no arguing. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and photo-document every inspection from your actual roof, not the driveway.
Response time to Highland Village is typically same-day or next-morning. We’re based in Dallas but run crews regularly through Denton County, and we know the permit requirements for Highland Village’s 75077 ZIP code. When lake wind has driven rain under your flashing and you’ve got water staining the ceiling, that speed matters. Live phones around the clock mean you’re never waiting on a callback window while the damage spreads.
Our Specialty Roofing Services in Highland Village
Built-Up Roofing (BUR)
Built-up roofing was the standard for flat and low-slope sections on 1980s Highland Village homes, especially the lakefront builds along Lake Lewisville Drive. The system layers asphalt and reinforcing felts, then tops them with gravel or a cap sheet. After 35-40 years, Highland Village’s BUR roofs are failing in a specific pattern we see nowhere else in DFW: lake wind drives rain under flashings and gravel surfacing, moisture gets trapped between plies, and the base layers delaminate from the deck. We replaced a failing built-up roof on a Lake Lewisville Drive home where decades of accumulated gravel had compacted and trapped moisture, causing the base plies to delaminate. The homeowner chose a full tear-off to a modified bitumen system, which performs better against the lake’s wind-driven rain. Patch repairs on these systems rarely last; the moisture’s already spread beyond the visible blister.

Modified Bitumen Roofing
Modified bitumen is what we most often recommend for Highland Village BUR replacements, particularly on lake-facing homes. The APP or SBS-modified sheets flex with temperature swings better than the organic felts used in 1980s builds, and heat-welded or torch-applied seams resist the lateral rain push that comes off Lake Lewisville. On homes near the water, we specify reinforced cap sheets with factory-applied granules for UV resistance. The material costs more upfront than another layer of BUR, but in Highland Village’s lake microclimate, it outlasts repairs by a decade or more. A typical modified bitumen installation on a Highland Village residential flat roof runs $12,000-$18,000 for tear-off and replacement.

TPO Roofing
TPO - thermoplastic polyolefin - works well for larger flat sections on Highland Village homes with modern additions or detached structures. The white reflective surface cuts cooling loads, which matters in Texas summers, and heat-welded seams create a monolithic barrier against wind-driven rain. We install TPO from authorized manufacturer lines including Atlas and Tamko, with full warranty registration. For Highland Village’s older housing stock, TPO makes sense when the roof deck is sound and the homeowner wants a 20-year solution with minimal maintenance. Expect $10,000-$16,000 for a typical residential TPO installation in 75077.

EPDM Roofing
EPDM rubber roofing has its place on Highland Village’s low-slope applications, particularly where cost is a tighter constraint and the roof geometry is simple. The black membrane absorbs heat, which can be managed with a white acrylic coating in our climate. We see fewer EPDM installations on lakefront homes because the adhesive-seamed construction doesn’t hold up as well against sustained moisture exposure at flashing details. For inland Highland Village properties with good drainage and standard wind exposure, EPDM remains a viable option at $8,500-$14,000 installed.

Solar Ready Roofing
Highland Village’s mature tree canopy and south-facing lakefront lots make solar increasingly practical for homeowners planning to stay long-term. Our solar-ready installations integrate standing-seam metal or specialized composite underlayment with structural reinforcement for future panel mounting. We coordinate with your solar contractor on penetration flashing and load paths, so you’re not cutting into a new roof two years later. Solar-ready prep adds $2,000-$4,500 to a standard replacement but protects your roof warranty and eliminates the leak risk of retrofitted mounts.

Green Roofing
Green roofs - vegetated assemblies with drainage mats, growing media, and drought-tolerant plantings - suit select Highland Village homes with flat sections visible from upper floors or neighboring properties. The Lake Lewisville-adjacent humidity helps establish plantings, though wind exposure requires steeper media berms at edges. We engineer these systems with root barriers and redundant drainage to prevent the exact moisture-trapping problem that kills conventional flat roofs in this climate. Green roof assemblies in Highland Village typically start at $22,000 and require structural verification for load capacity.

Trusted Brands We Service in Highland Village
We’re authorized installers for seven manufacturer lines, and for Highland Village’s specialty roofing needs, we draw most heavily on Atlas, Tamko, and Boral. Atlas supplies the modified bitumen and TPO systems we specify for lakefront moisture resistance. Tamko’s heritage in composite and low-slope products gives us reliable lead times on reinforcement fabrics and cap sheets. Boral covers our clay and concrete tile needs for the occasional Highland Village home with Mediterranean or Spanish Colonial styling. We stock common Highland Village repair items locally, so a flashing failure or seam separation doesn’t wait on a Dallas warehouse pull. The brands are proper, no substitutions, and every installation carries full manufacturer warranty registration plus our own 90-Day Done Right Promise.
Common Specialty Roofing Problems We See in Highland Village Homes
- Concealed moisture blisters in gravel-surfaced BUR. Lake wind pushes rain under the gravel surface on lakefront homes, and the trapped moisture forms blisters that rupture suddenly during the next thermal cycle. By the time you see staining inside, the base plies are compromised across a wide area.
- Accelerated edge peeling at modified bitumen flashings. Even newer modified bitumen roofs near Lake Lewisville experience this when sustained moisture under the base ply prevents proper adhesion at terminations. The membrane lifts, wind gets under it, and the failure propagates inward.
- Brittle organic felts cracking at laps. Older BUR systems with organic felts, common in 1980s Highland Village builds, become brittle and crack at the laps under lake-exacerbated thermal cycling. Each crack is a potential leak path that patch repairs cannot reliably seal.
- Failed sealant at skylight and vent penetrations. The lateral rain push off Lake Lewisville works sealant loose faster than inland exposure. We inspect these points with thermal imaging on every lake-facing elevation, because the damage starts small and spreads fast.

What moves you within these ranges: roof size and accessibility, number of penetrations to flash, whether the existing deck needs replacement, and how far your home sits from Lake Lewisville’s wind exposure. A lakefront home on Lake Lewisville Drive with a failed BUR and saturated decking runs toward the higher end. An inland property near FM 407 with sound decking and simple geometry falls lower. We give you the full number before work starts - the price we quote is the price you pay. Estimates are free, and our $89 seasonal tune-up catches problems before they become tear-offs.

FAQs - Specialty Roofing in Highland Village
Lake-generated wind gusts during storm cells push rain laterally under flashing and ridge caps in ways not seen even a few miles inland toward Lewisville or Corinth. On gravel-surfaced BUR, this moisture gets trapped between asphalt plies, causing delamination and blistering that inland roofs of the same age and construction simply don’t experience. The lake effect is real, and it takes about 5-7 years off a BUR’s useful life. If you’re seeing interior staining on a lake-facing home, call (888) 309-8379 - we offer free estimates and same-day inspection.
Occasionally, if the blister is small, isolated, and the surrounding plies test dry with a moisture probe. More often, the blister indicates systemic moisture entrapment, especially on lakefront homes where wind-driven rain has been working under the surface for years. We document the full condition with photos from your roof and give you straight guidance: patch if it makes sense, replace if it doesn’t. The 90-Day Done Right Promise applies either way. Call (888) 309-8379 for an honest assessment.
Yes - it’s what we recommend most often for these exact conditions. Modified bitumen’s elastomeric content flexes with thermal cycling better than 1980s organic felts, and the factory-applied granule surface resists UV and wind scouring. Heat-welded seams create a continuous barrier against the lateral rain push that comes off Lake Lewisville. For Highland Village’s lakefront BUR tear-offs, modified bitumen outperforms another BUR layer by a significant margin. Typical cost is $12,000-$18,000 installed. Call for a free estimate.
They test flashings harder than any other element. Lake wind doesn’t just blow rain against the roof; it drives it upward and sideways, working under step flashing, counterflashing, and termination bars that would stay dry in inland conditions. On our Highland Village inspections, we probe these details first, because the field membrane can look fine while the flashings have been leaking for two seasons. Thermal imaging helps us find the moisture before it shows on your ceiling. Our $89 seasonal tune-up includes full flashing inspection.
We install Atlas modified bitumen and TPO systems, Tamko reinforcement and cap-sheet products, and Boral tile where architectural style calls for it. All are authorized manufacturer lines with full warranty registration - no substitutions, no gray-market materials. We match the brand and system to your roof’s exposure, not to what’s cheapest or in stock. For Highland Village’s lakefront moisture challenges, we typically specify Atlas modified bitumen for its combination of flexibility and seam integrity. Call (888) 309-8379 to discuss what’s right for your roof.
