Roofing in Flint, Texas
Flint is an unincorporated community in southern Smith County, sitting along FM 2493 (Old Jacksonville Highway) between Tyler and Bullard and a few minutes from the eastern shore of Lake Palestine. It has grown from a small crossroads into one of the most popular places to build a home in the Tyler area, with newer subdivisions, larger acreage lots and lake-access properties sharing the same ZIP code (75762) as older ranch houses and farm homes.
That mix matters for roofing. Newer homes around Flint and Gresham were mostly built with architectural asphalt shingles, and many are now reaching the age where a hail claim or a first replacement comes up. Older homes and outbuildings often carry original three-tab shingles or aging metal, and lakeside properties deal with more wind exposure than homes tucked into the pines.
Flint shares Tyler’s weather. Summers run long and hot, spring brings severe thunderstorms with hail and straight-line wind, and winter occasionally delivers an ice storm. The National Severe Storms Laboratory classifies hail of one inch or larger as severe, and that size stone is enough to bruise shingles and dent soft metal. Because Flint is unincorporated, most roofing work here falls under Smith County rather than a city permit office, but building materials should still meet the same standards we use inside the Tyler city limits.
Smith County as a whole is growing fast. The U.S. Census Bureau estimates the county at more than 252,000 residents and about 102,000 housing units as of 2025, with roughly 69 percent of homes owner-occupied. Much of that growth has been in the southern part of the county, which is why Flint has become one of our busiest service areas.
Residential Roofing in Flint, TX
Our residential roofing crews handle every type of home in the Flint area: subdivision homes, custom builds on acreage, lake houses, manufactured homes with pitched roofs, and barns and shops. We install architectural and Class 4 impact-resistant asphalt shingles, standing seam and exposed-fastener metal, and we can walk you through shingle and metal color options before you commit.
Flint homeowners ask about Class 4 shingles more than almost any other area we serve, usually after a hail claim. The Texas Department of Insurance publishes an Impact-Resistant Roofing Installation Form that your installer completes and you send to your insurer to request any discount your policy offers. We fill that form out for every Class 4 roof we install.
Roof Repair in Flint, TX
Most roof repair calls from Flint fall into a few categories: leaks around chimneys and pipe boots, shingles lifted by wind off the lake, hail bruising after a spring storm, and rotted decking at the eaves where gutters overflowed. Our roof repair team finds the actual source of the leak (which is often not where the stain is), fixes it correctly, and tells you honestly whether the rest of the roof has years left.
Roof Replacement in Flint, TX
When a roof is past repair, our roof replacement process starts with a free inspection and a written scope, not a sales pitch. We tear off to the deck, replace any soft plywood, install ice-and-water shield in the valleys and at penetrations, synthetic underlayment, new drip edge and flashing, and then the roofing system you chose. Most single-family homes in Flint are completed in one to two days by our own crews.
For homeowners who want the strongest available roof, we can build to the IBHS FORTIFIED Roof standard, which adds a sealed roof deck, ring-shank nails and stronger edge details to a conventional installation.
Metal Roofing in Flint, TX
Metal roofing is a natural fit for the acreage homes, barns and lake houses around Flint. Standing seam panels handle wind well, shed pine needles better than shingles, and last decades with little maintenance. We are certified for MBCI panel systems and install both standing seam and exposed-fastener panels on homes and outbuildings. See our metal roofing page for panel types and finishes.
Commercial Roofing in Flint, TX
The commercial corridor along FM 2493 has grown with the community: churches, retail, medical offices, storage facilities and metal shop buildings. Our commercial roofing crews install TPO, PVC, modified bitumen and metal systems, and we repair and maintain all of them. Property owners in Flint get the same written scopes and project leads as our Tyler commercial customers.
Storm Damage Repair and Insurance Claims in Flint
After a hail or wind event, call us before you call your insurance company if you are unsure whether you have damage. We will inspect the roof for free, photograph what we find, and tell you honestly whether it is worth filing a claim. If it is, our insurance claim assistance team meets the adjuster on the roof and provides the documentation the claim needs. Our storm damage repair crews handle emergency tarping as well as permanent repairs.
A note on who you hire after a storm: Texas has no state roofing license, so anyone can put a magnet on a truck and knock on doors in Flint after hail. The Better Business Bureau warns that roofing scams often occur after a storm when a roofer “just happens” to be on your street. Ask for proof of insurance, a local office address and references before you sign anything. Ours are at the bottom of this page.
Free Roof Inspections in Flint, TX
Every job we do starts with a free roof inspection: a walk on the roof, a look in the attic where possible, and a written report with photos. There is no charge and no obligation. Flint homeowners use these for storm claims, before listing a house for sale, and before buying a lake property.
Roof Maintenance for Flint Homes
The pines and oaks around Flint fill gutters fast, and a clogged gutter is the most common cause of rotted fascia and eave decking we see here. Our roof maintenance visits clear debris, reseal pipe boots and flashing, check for lifted shingles and catch small problems before the next storm turns them into claims.

Flint, TX Roofing FAQs
Do you serve Flint even though it is unincorporated?
Yes. Flint is one of our busiest areas in southern Smith County. Our Tyler office is about ten minutes away, and our crews are on FM 2493 nearly every day.
Do I need a permit for a roof replacement in Flint?
Flint is outside the Tyler city limits, so roofing permits are generally not required the way they are inside the city. We follow the same installation standards on every roof regardless of jurisdiction, and we will confirm any requirements that apply to your specific property.
Does homeowners insurance cover hail damage in Flint?
Most Texas homeowners policies cover sudden wind and hail damage, subject to your deductible. Coverage details vary by policy, so we inspect first, document what we find, and help you decide whether a claim makes sense.
How long do I have to file a storm damage claim in Texas?
Policies set their own deadlines, and many require prompt notice. Check your policy and call your insurer soon after a storm. We can inspect quickly so you have documentation in hand.
What roofing materials do you install in Flint?
Architectural and Class 4 impact-resistant asphalt shingles, standing seam and exposed-fastener metal, and TPO, PVC and modified bitumen on commercial and flat roofs.
Are Class 4 shingles worth it in Flint?
For many homeowners, yes. They resist hail bruising far better than standard shingles, and Texas insurers may offer a premium credit when you submit the TDI installation form. Discounts vary by company, so ask your agent.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most Flint homes are completed in one to two days. Larger or steeper roofs, or metal installations, can take longer, and we give you the schedule in writing.
Do you offer free roof inspections near Flint?
Yes. Every inspection includes a written report with photos at no charge and no obligation.
Do you install metal roofs on barns and shops in Flint?
Yes. Metal roofing on outbuildings, barns and shops is a regular part of our work around Flint, Gresham and Bullard.
Is Redline Roofing licensed and insured in Texas?
Texas does not issue a state roofing license, so “licensed” in our industry refers to local business licensing and voluntary programs. We are licensed, bonded and insured, we carry general liability and workers compensation on every crew, and we provide certificates on request.
