Your One-Stop Roofing Company in Cypress

Cypress is not an incorporated city. It is an unincorporated area of Harris County, so this page uses data for its two ZIP codes, 77429 and 77433, from the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey 2020-2024. They tell different stories. Half of the homes in ZIP 77429 were built before 2003, which puts many roofs at about 23 years old. Half of the homes in ZIP 77433 were built before 2011, so a typical roof there is about 15 years old.

That gap changes the conversation. In 77429, many homeowners are weighing repair against replacement, since asphalt shingles usually last 20 to 30 years. In 77433, more roofs are still on their original shingles, and the goal is catching storm damage early so it does not shorten their life. In both ZIP codes, about 81 percent of homes are owner occupied.

Storms hit both. NOAA's Storm Prediction Center logged 31 hail reports within 10 miles of central Cypress from 2015 through 2024. Seven were 1.75 inches or larger, in 2015, 2019 and 2023, and the largest stone measured 2.75 inches on April 19, 2015. Heavy rain and strong wind from Gulf storms add their own wear, with lifted shingles and failed flashing among the most common leak points.
