Roofing Contractor in Preston Hollow, Dallas

Preston Hollow has changed dramatically over the decades. In the early post-war years, what is now one of Dallas’s most established neighborhoods still sat near the edge of the city. Northwest Highway—today a major arterial—once marked the outskirts of town and later became the southern boundary of Preston Hollow, separating it from University Park as Dallas expanded north.

Bert Roofing has been working in this part of Dallas long enough to have seen that evolution firsthand. That long view matters when you’re working on homes that were built to last—and expect the same from the people who work on them.

Roofing in Preston Hollow: Older Homes, Higher Standards

Many Preston Hollow homes sit on original or early subdivision lots, with construction details that predate modern roofing shortcuts. We’ve recently worked on one of the original properties in the neighborhood, where the original deed even restricted the owner to a single mule—an early attempt at shaping how the area would develop.

That history shows up today in:

Larger roof systems
Steeper slopes and complex lines
Older decking and framing that require careful evaluation
A higher expectation for workmanship and discretion

This is not production roofing. Mistakes are expensive, and details matter.

Established Work in Preston Hollow

Over the years, we’ve completed roofing projects for a range of Preston Hollow properties, including high-visibility and architect-driven work.

One example is Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church, located at the northeast corner of Walnut Hill Lane and Preston Road. Institutional properties like this demand planning, coordination, and a contractor who understands long timelines and accountability.

We’ve also completed multiple projects for Duane Landry, a Dallas architect known for custom residential design in Preston Hollow. That work included projects for his clients as well as roofing work on his own personal residence in the neighborhood. Repeat work from an architect is never accidental—it’s earned.

Storm Damage and the October 2019 Tornado

On October 20, 2019, an EF-3 tornado tore through North Dallas, impacting areas along the Walnut Hill and Royal Lane corridor near St. Mark’s School and Central Market. Streets such as Orchid Lane and Tulip Lane were close to the heaviest damage.

In the aftermath of that storm, we helped homeowners throughout Preston Hollow stabilize, repair, and replace roofs damaged by high winds and debris. In many cases, this involved coordinating with insurance adjusters, addressing hidden structural issues, and sequencing work alongside broader property repairs.
