  1. Step 01

    Inspect the roof

    • Tell us where the property is, what happened and when it started.
    • We inspect the affected area and surrounding roof.
    • We explain whether a repair or replacement fits the condition.
  2. Step 02

    Agree on the scope

    • Review the materials, work and written estimate together.
    • Confirm access, scheduling and how hidden damage will be handled.
    • Ask about Acorn Finance or Wisetack if needed.
  3. Step 03

    Carry out the agreed work

    • We prepare the work area and complete the approved roofing scope.
    • Any newly exposed conditions that change the scope are discussed with you.
  4. Step 04

    Review the finished roof

    • Review the completed work and clean up the work area.
    • Discuss applicable warranties, care and any required registration.
    • Keep these details with your estimate and project records.

Frequently Asked Questions

About our team and approach

Who owns Barnes N’ Roofs?

Nicholas Barnes owns Barnes N’ Roofs. The company serves Central Texas homeowners and commercial property owners from its New Braunfels base.

What experience does Nicholas bring to roofing?

Nicholas studied environmental science at Baylor University and managed a metrology lab for a Fortune 500 company before following his family into roofing. That background is part of his approach to assessing a roof and explaining the work.

How do you develop a roofing recommendation?

We start with the property, the concern you describe and the roof conditions we can assess. We explain the findings and the proposed scope so you understand why a repair or larger project is being recommended.

How will I know what work I am agreeing to?

We discuss the materials, affected areas and written estimate before the work starts. Ask about access, scheduling, exclusions and how newly exposed conditions would be handled.

What happens if the roof needs work beyond the agreed scope?

Newly exposed conditions that change the scope are discussed with you. The proposal should explain how additional work will be addressed, so ask about that process before the project begins.

What do we review when the roofing work is finished?

We review the completed work, cleanup and applicable care or warranty information. Keep the written project details and any required manufacturer registration with your records.
