Invictus Exterior is a Houston-based roofing and exterior contractor with active job sites in River Oaks every week of the year. We handle storm damage repair, full roof replacement, hail and wind insurance claims, siding, windows, gutters, and attic insulation across inner-loop Houston. Active jobs across River Oaks proper, Tanglewood, Afton Oaks, and Highland Village. Every estimate is free, written, and itemized. Every install is run by a project manager who lives within 20 miles of your home.
- Do you specialize in slate?
- Yes. We keep a dedicated slate and tile crew, work in copper and stainless rather than galvanized, and match underlayment to the service life of the roof covering above it.
- How do you schedule around our household?
- Around your calendar. Deliveries off peak, crew hours set with you, staging positioned for minimum street presence, and full cleanup at the end of every day.
- Who will be my point of contact?
- One senior project manager from inspection through final walk, reachable directly, not a call center.

01 // The River Oaks climate problem
River Oaks roofs are predominantly slate, clay tile, and premium architectural shingle on custom homes built between 1920 and present. Tropical systems are the primary risk, with wind-driven rain regularly exposing slate slip and tile breakage that requires specialized repair.
02 // Slate and clay tile specialization
River Oaks holds one of the densest concentrations of natural slate and clay tile roofs in Texas. These systems require slate-trained labor, copper or stainless flashings, and underlayment systems matched to a 75 to 100 year service life. We maintain a dedicated slate and tile crew and stock common Ludowici and Vande Hey Raleigh tile profiles for fast repair.
03 // Custom architectural rooflines
River Oaks custom homes routinely have 9/12 to 14/12 pitches, 8 to 15 valleys, multiple chimneys, and integrated copper or zinc accents. Every project is bid bespoke from a full on-site drone survey and physical inspection. Standard square pricing does not apply.
04 // Discreet scheduling and white-glove project management
River Oaks projects are run by a senior project manager with a single point of contact, scheduled around household, staff, and event calendars. Material deliveries are coordinated for off-peak hours, dumpsters are positioned for minimum street disruption, and daily cleanup is non-negotiable.
05 // City of Houston permits and tree protection
Roof replacements over the dollar threshold require City of Houston permits. River Oaks is also subject to strict protected-tree rules around dumpster and lift placement. We pull permits, file tree-protection plans, and handle all close-out inspections.
06 // High-value carrier coordination
River Oaks insurance is typically written by Chubb, AIG Private Client, PURE, and similar high-value carriers. Their adjusters are senior, detail-oriented, and expect drone imagery, strike-density maps, and Xactimate-aligned scopes. Our documentation is built to this standard.
07 // How a River Oaks project runs
Every River Oaks project is bid bespoke off a full drone survey and a physical inspection, because square pricing means nothing on a 12/12 roof with a dozen valleys and integrated copper. Once scope is set, we work backward from your calendar to build the schedule. Permits and protected tree plans are filed before mobilization. During the work, one senior project manager holds the whole file, and documentation for high value carriers is assembled as we go rather than reconstructed afterward.
