What's different about roofs in San Antonio
San Antonio's 35" of annual rainfall creates real conditions for moss and algae growth, especially on north-facing or shaded roof sections — algae-resistant shingles and more frequent inspections are worth considering here.
With summer highs this intense in San Antonio, extreme heat can soften roofing materials during installation and make working conditions difficult for crews — many contractors here prefer scheduling major work outside the peak of summer when possible.
Algae-resistant architectural shingles or standing seam metal (metal typically lasting 40-70 years in Texas) tend to outperform standard 3-tab asphalt given San Antonio's 35" of annual rainfall, since both shed water well and resist moss/algae growth better. Lighter-colored or reflective materials — metal roofing in particular — hold up better than dark asphalt under San Antonio's sustained heat, since dark asphalt absorbs more heat and tends to degrade faster under intense UV exposure, and metal here typically lasts 40-70 years versus asphalt's 18-25.
