Home Improvement Contractor in Roma, TX
If your house is old brick downtown, we repair and repoint what you want kept. Outside the center, the call is usually a roof or a fence line.
Roma sits about twelve miles west of Rio Grande City, roughly fifteen minutes from our base. That puts your job inside our same day zone. Older masonry and brick near the historic district needs a different approach than newer construction. We price the work by address, not by a guess over the phone.
Local conditions02
What houses in Roma actually deal with
Roofing and exterior work carry most of the demand in Roma. Downtown we get asked to repair rather than replace, because the material is old and the owner wants it kept. Outside the center it flips, and the call is usually a full roof, a fence line or a patio cover.
- —Roma is the far west end of Starr County, right on the river. From our Rio Grande City base it is about twelve miles and fifteen minutes.
- —The historic district downtown is built of old brick and masonry. That wall does not behave like a 1990s frame wall, so repair and moisture work there gets planned differently.
- —Work on or near a historic property can carry extra review. We confirm what applies to your specific address before the estimate goes out.
- —Away from downtown, Roma follows the county pattern. Starr has a median build year of 1987, so roofs are past due and baths are usually original.
- —March through May brings hail and straight line wind to the whole Valley, Roma included. Fence posts and metal panels either get set and fastened for that or they do not last.
- —Fifteen minutes out means a punch list visit is a short drive. If your street is not listed below, call and tell us the cross street.

Questions we get05
What people in Roma ask us
Does working near the historic downtown change anything?
It changes the method and it can change the paperwork. Old masonry wants repair, repointing and drainage before anything is covered up. It can also trigger extra review depending on the property, and we confirm that for your address before quoting.
How long is the drive from Rio Grande City to Roma?
About fifteen minutes on US-83, roughly twelve miles. Roma is in zone 1 with the rest of Starr County. Scheduling here works the same as scheduling in town. Escobares sits between us, so we often run both in one morning.
Can you repair older brick and masonry instead of tearing it out?
Often yes, and in Roma that is usually the better call. We match by sample rather than by catalog, and an exact match on old brick is rare. The estimate says plainly which units get replaced and which get repointed.
Does a job in Roma cost more because it is farther west?
No. Roma is zone 1, the same as Rio Grande City. The travel rule we apply starts out toward the mid Valley and the coast. We tell any customer about it before they commit. Nothing about it applies to Starr County.
