Kaufman County · Scurry, Texas
Scurry Roofing for Acreage Homes and Metal Barns
Settled in the 1840s and incorporated in 2003, Scurry is a small rural town on SH 34, seven miles southwest of Kaufman, where acreage parcels mix older homes, metal-roofed barns and newer custom builds. Architectural Metal Panels serves Scurry with metal roofing for homes and outbuildings, seamless gutters, siding, custom sheet metal, and soffit and fascia. We measure every structure on one visit and price each separately, so you can roof the house now and the barn later, or do everything at once.

What Scurry Homes Need From Their Exterior
Scurry’s housing is mostly 1950s-90s frame and brick homes on acreage parcels along the SH 34 corridor and near the Scurry-Rosser school area, plus newer custom builds. Older homes are often on their third or fourth roof, with board or plank decking, weathered wood fascia and few gutters. Metal-roofed barns, many with exposed fasteners, may be due for screw and washer replacement or new panels. New custom homes typically arrive with composition roofs that can be upgraded at the first replacement. Standing seam suits the older homes and custom builds, while R-panel or PBR handles barns and shops economically.
We serve Scurry homeowners along the SH 34 corridor and around the Scurry-Rosser school area, plus acreage properties throughout the Scurry-Rosser ISD area.
How Scurry Weather Treats a Roof
Southwestern Kaufman County saw quarter- to ping-pong-size hail south of Kemp in May 2025, and the May 28, 2024 derecho brought damaging winds across the area. Open acreage leaves homes and barns exposed to both. Hail in that range bruises composition roofs and dents light-gauge metal, and derecho winds peel panels from barn eaves first. We recommend roofing tested to UL 2218 Class 4 for homes and properly fastened, heavier panels on outbuildings. Ask your carrier about impact-resistant credits. We inspect every structure after a storm.
- Class 4 (UL 2218) impact-rated roofing options, with the certificate your insurer asks for
- Free post-storm inspections with dated photos and measurements
- Adjuster meetings on site so the claim scope is complete

What We Install for Scurry Homeowners
Metal roofing across the whole property leads in Scurry: standing seam or metal shingles on homes and R-panel or PBR on barns and shops. Re-screwing aging exposed-fastener barn roofs is a common repair. Older homes often need soffit and fascia replacement and new seamless gutters, and new custom builds benefit from early gutter upgrades.

HOA Approval and Permits in Scurry
Scurry has no HOA presence, so owners choose roofing profile and color freely, whether for the house, barn or shop. Texas Property Code §202.011, which generally prevents HOAs from prohibiting wind- and hail-resistant or energy-efficient roofing that resembles approved products, does not typically apply here. We confirm whether your parcel is inside city limits and pull the city permit where required.

Scurry Roofing and Exterior FAQs
How long does an exposed-fastener barn roof last in Scurry?
The panels themselves can last decades, but the rubber washers on exposed screws typically break down in 10 to 15 years under Texas sun and heat cycling, letting water in at each screw. Replacing fasteners extends the roof’s life if the panels are sound. Rusted or hail-damaged panels are better replaced.
Can you roof a new custom home and an older barn on the same Scurry property?
Yes. We often pair standing seam on the home with exposed-fastener panels on the barn, matched in color so the property looks consistent. Each structure gets its own line in the estimate, so you can decide what to do now. Combining them in one project usually means fewer trips and a simpler schedule.
Do Scurry homes need gutters on acreage lots?
Usually, yes. Even on open acreage, roof water dumping at the foundation erodes soil and can cause uneven moisture under slabs and piers, especially on clay. Seamless gutters with downspouts and long extensions move water away from the house. On barns, gutters protect doorways and keep runoff away from stored equipment.
How soon can you inspect my roof in Scurry?
Most Scurry inspections are scheduled within a few business days, and active leaks and fresh storm damage go to the front of the line. If water is coming in, call (469) 569-3956 and we will help you protect the home first.
