Roof Jack / Vent Cap Replacement in Round Rock, TX
When the dryer exits through the roof, the termination is a roofing detail as much as a venting one. We remove the old jack, clear the lint packed under it, and set a dryer-rated cap with a damper that swings free — never a screened termination, because a screen on a dryer exhaust is a lint trap by design. The flashing is woven into the shingle course above it and sealed so the penetration stays dry through the next storm. What the roof asks of us drives the price: a walkable composition roof is the base, while steep pitch, tile or metal, and second-story height that means rigging fall protection all cost time. That number is quoted before we climb. Serving Round Rock (6 ZIP codes, 120k residents) and surrounding neighborhoods with same-week scheduling.

Local dossier · Round Rock, TX
Round Rock sits in the awkward middle. Its oldest neighborhoods, Chisholm Valley and Forest Creek and the streets that grew with the first tech wave, are old enough that their original ducting was flexible and is now well past its useful life. The bulk of the city, though, came out of the 2000s and is at exactly the age where owners assume there is nothing to check yet. That assumption is where the worst blockages hide: not in the oldest houses, but in twenty-year-old ones whose vents have never once been opened. The city is also close to evenly divided between gas and electric service, so there is no safe default about what sits behind the appliance. And a sizable share of Round Rock lives in apartments along the I-35 corridor, where the run terminates at a roof cap several floors up and the resident has no way to see whether anything is coming out of it at all.
