At Handnail Roofing, we specialize in hand-nailed asphalt shingle installations—a technique that offers unmatched precision and reliability. In Sugarland, TX, where roofs must endure both intense heat and heavy storms, the quality of roof installation is just as important as the materials used.

Hand nailing allows our experienced local roofers to feel the resistance of each nail, ensuring it’s driven to the perfect depth and angle. This tactile control helps prevent overdriven or underdriven nails—common issues with nail guns that can compromise a roof’s integrity and shorten its lifespan. Proper nail placement also preserves manufacturer warranties, which can be voided by improper installation.

Unlike pneumatic tools, hand nailing gives local roofers the ability to make on-the-spot adjustments. If a nail hits a knot or soft spot in the decking, it can be corrected immediately. This is especially useful when working on older homes or wooden plank decks that might have subtle inconsistencies.

Though it takes more time and labor, the hand-nailing process provides a superior finish and stronger hold. We believe the added effort is worth it for the long-term protection and peace of mind it gives our customers. It’s a level of craftsmanship that’s hard to match with quicker, volume-driven methods.
