Schwertner is a small unincorporated community in northern Williamson County, settled by Czech and German farmers in the late 1800s and still mostly farmland and a few houses around FM 1105. Population sits near 120. Roofs out here take the full Central Texas weather load. Long hot summers with July highs near 96°F. Big spring hailstorms rolling east out of the Hill Country. Wind events that move through the I-35 corridor between Bartlett and Granger.
SkyeVantage coordinates asphalt shingle roof replacements in Schwertner end to end. Materials at wholesale cost. Synthetic underlayment, self-adhered membrane at the eaves and valleys, drip edge, ridge cap, and balanced intake and exhaust ventilation so the shingles you paid for actually last 25-plus years in this heat. A Preferred Roofing Network crew handles the tear-off and install. Axium inspects.
One flat fee covers the coordination, the labor, the materials setup, and the dumpster. Everything else is at cost. You see the receipt.
Schwertner has a humid subtropical climate (Köppen Cfa), same as the rest of Williamson County and the Austin metro to the south. NOAA 30-year normals for the area:
- Annual precipitation: ~35 inches of rain, concentrated in spring storms. Water management at valleys, step flashings, and chimney saddles is non-negotiable.
- Summer temps: July average high near 96°F with extended runs over 100°F. UV exposure and deck heat accelerate granule loss and dry out sealants on south and west slopes.
- Winter temps: Mild winters with occasional freezes. No appreciable snow accumulation. Thermal cycling between hot days and cold fronts is the wear pattern, not freeze-thaw.
- Severe weather window: April through June is peak hail and wind. Schwertner sits at the eastern edge of the Central Texas hail belt. Most homeowner claims in the area trace back to this window.
