Many Collin County neighborhoods, including much of Plano and Frisco, have HOAs with architectural rules for roofs. Homeowners often assume “metal roof” means standing seam or corrugated panels, which HOAs frequently turn down. Stone-coated steel is different. This FAQ explains how TEK Industries’ profiles are designed to pass HOA review and what to bring to your architectural committee.

# Why HOAs reject some metal roofs, and what is different here

TEK says most HOAs reject standard metal systems such as standing seam and corrugated metal. TEK’s stone-coated steel comes in metal shingle, metal shake and metal tile profiles in a range of colors, so the roof can match the look your covenants call for. The metal shingle profile is made to resemble traditional asphalt shingles.

# What you get beyond the look

Class 4 impact rating (UL 2218), the highest hail rating for residential roofing, which matters in DFW hail season
CAT-5 wind performance: 140 mph sustained winds
50-year lifespan, with a 50-year Lifetime Limited Warranty on materials
A foam insulation insert that adds R-value and absorbs rain sound

# How to get HOA approval

Read your HOA’s CC&Rs and architectural guidelines for roof material, color and profile
Ask TEK or your TEK-authorized dealer for manufacturer spec sheets, a sample board and color options. TEK provides this documentation for HOA submissions.
Submit the application with the profile and color you chose, and wait for written approval before work starts
Keep the approval letter with your warranty documents

TEK can’t guarantee any particular HOA’s decision; approval depends on your covenants. TEK says its systems are typically HOA-compliant.

# Questions to ask your architectural committee

Which roof materials, profiles and colors are pre-approved, and is stone-coated steel on that list?
Do you need a physical sample board, a color chip, or a manufacturer spec sheet?
How long does review take, and does the committee meet monthly?
Are there rules about ridge caps, trim color or visible fasteners?

In both Plano and Frisco, roof replacements may also need a city building permit; your TEK-authorized dealer can tell you what applies to your address. Asking these questions before you choose a color keeps the approval to a single round.

# Frequently asked questions

# Will my Plano or Frisco HOA approve a metal roof?

It depends on your CC&Rs. TEK says its stone-coated steel profiles, which look like shingle, shake or tile, are typically HOA-compliant, unlike standing seam or corrugated metal.

# What metal roof looks most like asphalt shingles?

TEK’s stone-coated metal shingle is designed to mimic traditional asphalt shingles.

# What documents does my HOA need?

Usually product spec sheets, a sample or color selection, and the material description. TEK provides spec sheets and sample boards for HOA submissions.

# Do TEK roofs come in different colors?

Yes. TEK offers several styles and colors across its metal shingle, shake and tile lines.

# Can I install a metal roof without HOA approval?

Don’t. Most HOAs require written approval before exterior changes, and unapproved work can lead to fines or forced changes. Submit first and keep the approval letter.

# Is a metal roof a good idea for DFW hail?

TEK’s roofs carry a Class 4 impact rating, the highest available, which is why many DFW homeowners consider them.
