Roofing and Siding in Clear Lake Shores, TX

Clear Lake Shores is its own small city, separate from League City and Kemah, on the water at the mouth of Clear Lake. Small lots, a lot of raised houses and a lot of open water around them. It is Galveston County, so re-roofs are inspected.

Clear Lake Shores is in Galveston County, a TWIA first-tier county. A re-roof here, or a repair to a significant portion of the roof, is built to the windstorm code the Texas Department of Insurance has adopted and inspected for a certificate of compliance.

A Small City With Its Own Rules

Clear Lake Shores has its own city government, so its permit process is its own, not League City’s or Kemah’s. This site has not researched it. Ask the City before work starts.

Exposure on Every Side

With water close on several sides, wind reaches these houses without much in the way. Upper slopes, gable trim and soffits are the first things to check after a storm.

Siding on Raised Houses

Siding on a house above a parking level runs taller and catches more wind than on a slab house. Re-siding a significant portion of a wall needs a certificate here, per TWIA.
