A Small Interstate Town in the National Forest
New Waverly is a small town on I-45 south of Huntsville, surrounded by the Sam Houston National Forest. Life here is spread out over wooded lots, and the typical property has more than one roof on it: the house, maybe a manufactured home for family, and a metal shop or barn out back. The pines are close to everything. What you see after a big storm is often a limb through a shop roof or shingles torn where a branch scraped across. What it usually means is a temporary cover now and a proper repair once the tree is off.

- From Huntsville: south on I-45, toward Conroe

New Waverly Roofs
Pine country means needles in valleys and gutters on the house, and drips at the screws on metal outbuildings. Both are cheaper to keep up with than to repair after a winter of leaks.
Calling From New Waverly
A call from New Waverly to (936) 249-1840 reaches an independent roofing company that already works this stretch of East Texas, on houses, rentals, shops, barns and manufactured homes. They take on leak repair, hail and storm damage, replacements, metal roofs and new installations.
