What Shapes Your Plan
In Georgetown a reroof takes a city permit, and the roofer has to be registered with the city. Past that, the price rides on the roof's size and pitch and the shingle you want. Storm damage may be a claim, and we talk it over before you file.
After the Visit You Will Know
What the roof needs, if anything, and what that costs, on paper. When the roof is fine, Jake tells you so, and nobody sends you a bill for his time.
Your Roof's Year in Georgetown
April has brought more hail reports at Georgetown than any other month, 21 of the 65 logged since 2000.
Fall
September has brought 9 of Georgetown's hail reports since 2000, so a fall storm deserves a look too. Look for: dark grit piling up at the downspouts.
Winter
The 2021 winter storm dropped 5.2 inches of snow on Georgetown, the Weather Service logged. Look for: a fresh water spot once the ice melts off.
Spring
On April 22, 2025, Georgetown logged 11 hail reports, the biggest stone 2.5 inches. Look for: dark bruised spots where the granules came off.
Summer
Long Georgetown summers bake the shingles, and in that heat our crew wraps up by noon. Look for: shingle corners that curl up or split open.
Why Georgetown Homeowners Call Us
Georgetown homeowners get a family shop: Frank on the phone, Jake on the roof, and one crew lead since 2014.
A Person Picks Up
Your call goes to Frank, the owner, not a phone tree. One customer found us after a bigger roofer switched to an automated line that nobody answered.
Father and Son
Frank's son Jake does the roof check and runs the crew on your job. Every hail strike he finds gets a chalk circle, so you can see it.
No Storm Chasers
We do not chase storms from state to state. Our main crew does the work, led by the same man since 2014, the year Frank opened.

Georgetown Roof Questions
Does Georgetown Require a Permit to Reroof?
Yes, Georgetown requires a city permit for a residential reroof inside the city limits. The roofer has to be registered with the City of Georgetown first. If the house sits in the Old Town or Downtown overlay and the material is changing, a Certificate of Appropriateness may be needed too. Round Rock and Leander, by contrast, ask for no permit to reroof.
How Far Is Ruddy's Roofing From Georgetown?
Our shop at 1510 Merrell Cove in Round Rock is 10.1 miles from Georgetown City Hall by road. With no traffic, the drive takes about 15 minutes. Frank answers the phone himself, and Jake drives up to look at the roof at no charge to you.
How Big Was the 2025 Hail Storm in Georgetown?
The largest stone was 2.5 inches, about three miles south-southeast of Georgetown, on April 22, 2025. The federal storm record logged 11 hail reports at Georgetown that day. The biggest stone at Georgetown since 2000 was 2.75 inches, reported in 2007 and again in 2020. Hail that size can bruise a shingle in ways you cannot see from the yard.
When Does Georgetown Get the Most Hail?
April is the busiest hail month in Georgetown, with 21 of the 65 reports logged since 2000. March and May come next, with 12 each. Spring is when to keep an eye on the roof, and a look after any storm costs you nothing.
Are Most Georgetown Homes Newer?
About 45 percent of Georgetown's homes were built in 2010 or later, per the Census Bureau. The median home in town was built in 2008. A newer roof still takes hail. One storm can bruise the shingles on a roof of any age, which is why Jake walks every slope when he comes out.
