Roofing in Selma, TX
Selma amended its residential code to require Class A, B or C roofing on every job. That is a material classification requirement written into a local ordinance, and Texas House Bill 2439 restricts what a city may demand by product or material. It probably survives because it tracks the national model code, but it is worth knowing it is a local amendment.
The permit itself is simple and cheap: a flat $100 covers foundation repair, roofing or a retaining wall on a residential property. Selma adopted the 2021 building and residential codes by Ordinance 120921-04 on December 9, 2021, along with the 2018 existing building code and the 2020 electrical code. It is not aligned with San Antonio and should not be assumed to be.
Registration is free here, and the city says so with a caveat. Its own guidance states that at this time no registration fee is required, although the city reserves the right to assess one in the future. What is not optional is the insurance: $300,000 of general liability under $50,000 of project value, and a million dollars at or above it.
That certificate must name the City of Selma as certificate holder at its Corporate Drive address, not just list a policy number. Every roofer we compete against here has been asked for it, and the ones who cannot produce it on the day are the ones whose bids look inexplicably low. Ask to see it before you sign.
Skipping the permit is expensive in an unusual way. Work started or completed without one is charged at two and a half times the standard permit fee or $800, whichever is less. Reinspections run $100, then $120, then $140 per trade. Water will not be turned on for residential construction without a certificate of occupancy.
Selma sits across three counties, Bexar, Comal and Guadalupe, which means an insurance adjuster's county-level hail history can miss your street entirely. Only five storm events of any kind are on the decade record here, topped by 1.25-inch hail on June 8, 2023. The Retama Park and Olympia Parkway corridors have a genuinely quiet weather file.
The housing is new and rented in unusual proportion for a town this size: 4,387 units with a median build year of 2010, no mobile homes counted, and only 2,700 of 4,221 occupied units owner-occupied. Newer roofs, shorter ownership, and a lot of decisions being made by people who will not be living under the result.
Roofing work we do in Selma, TX
New Braunfels Roof Pros covers the same range of work in Selma that we do in New Braunfels — nothing is carved out because the address is a few miles up the road:
- Emergency Roof Tarping — Tarping is triage. The point is to keep tonight's water out of the building without creating damage that has to be repaired tomorrow, and on a metal roof that second half is harder than most people expect.
- Commercial Roofing — Commercial work on this corridor is mostly metal buildings. Distribution and light manufacturing off the interstate, equipment dealers, event venues along the river, churches and school buildings, and the older shops behind downtown that have been re-purposed twice.
- Insurance Claim Support — We do not adjust claims and we are not public adjusters. What we do is document a roof accurately enough that whoever does adjust it can see what we saw, and explain the parts of a metal roof policy that surprise owners after a storm.
- Roof Replacement — Replacement here starts with a question most quotes skip: what is already on the deck. Roughly half the homes we look at wear asphalt shingles, and a growing share wear exposed-fastener metal panels that are nowhere near finished.
- Roof Leak Repair — If water is coming in right now, move what is under it, set a bucket down and photograph the ceiling before it dries. Then call.
- Storm Damage Roof Restoration — A cell crossing the escarpment can hit one subdivision hard and leave the next street untouched. Restoration starts by establishing what this storm actually did to this building, separately from everything that was already wrong with it.

About Selma, TX — and why local matters here
Selma sits in Bexar County with a population of roughly 10,952, close enough to New Braunfels that crews move between the two constantly. Local landmarks and corridors residents know well include Retama Park, The Forum at Olympia Parkway.
Local knowledge is not a marketing line here. Selma properties share soil, weather, permit rules and construction eras with the rest of Bexar County, and a roofing contractor who works the area weekly already knows what fails locally and what holds up. That is the difference between a bid and an accurate bid.
