Do you cover Amity and Clark County?
Yes. Amity sits on Highway 8 in northwestern Clark County, about an hour from our shop at 207 Albert Pike Rd. Our Hot Springs crews run down that way, and Clark County is real service territory for us.
You get the same free inspection, the same crews, and the same written price a Hot Springs homeowner gets.
Do rural jobs cost more out here?
No. Free inspections and free estimates apply in Amity the same as in town. The drive down Highway 8 is ours to cover, not something we tack onto your bill.
One thing helps. When you call, tell us what the road in is like. A long gravel grade, a low branch over the lane, or a locked gate all change which truck and trailer we load. Say so up front and we roll in ready the first trip, not the second.
What wears out a roof around Amity?
Weather and the woods, mostly. Clark County catches the same spring hail and straight-line wind as the rest of central Arkansas, and the Caddo bottoms and the Ouachita National Forest do the slow damage the rest of the year.
| Around Amity | What it does to a roof |
|---|---|
| Spring hail off the Ouachitas | Bruises shingles, strips the granules |
| Caddo River bottom humidity | Keeps decking damp, rots the edges |
| Pine litter from the forest | Packs the valleys, holds water on the roof |
| Straight-line wind | Peels ridge caps and lifts shingles |
If a storm hits, call 501-359-5550. We get up there fast and tarp anything letting water in.
What roof works best around Amity?
For a lot of homes out here, metal. Lots near the forest sit under hardwood and pine, and the limbs and litter never let up on a shingle roof.
A metal roof sheds all of that and runs 40 to 70 years before you think about it again. Out here that means fewer crews coming back down Highway 8.
When a shingle roof fits your house and budget better, we will say so and install that instead.
Do you work on places near the Caddo River and DeGray Lake?
Yes. The Caddo River runs just north of Amity and feeds DeGray Lake, and the water draws cabins and second homes. A lot of those owners live in Little Rock or Dallas and only get out on weekends.
So we work by photo. We shoot the roof before and after and send it, and you decide on your own time without driving down.

Amity roofing questions
Do you drive out to Amity?
Yes. Amity sits on Highway 8 in northwestern Clark County, about 27 miles up the road from Arkadelphia and roughly an hour from our shop at 207 Albert Pike Rd in Hot Springs. Plenty of roofers will not make the drive out to Clark County for a rural job. We will, and the inspection and estimate are still free.
Do you charge extra for a rural job in Amity?
No. Inspections and estimates are free in Amity the same as they are in town. The drive is our problem, not something we add to your bill. It helps if you tell us about your driveway and gate when you call, so we bring the right truck the first time.
Does Amity get enough storms to worry about my roof?
Yes. Clark County sits in the same severe weather belt as the rest of central Arkansas, and hail and straight-line wind roll through every spring. Most of the damage we find here is wind and hail, not a direct hit. Both can end a roof, and both are often covered by insurance.
Is a metal roof a good idea out here?
Often, yes. The country around Amity is wooded and close to the Ouachita National Forest, so limbs fall and wet leaves sit. Metal handles that better than shingles and lasts 40 to 70 years. That is worth a lot when you are a long gravel drive from the nearest crew.
How fast can you get to a leak in Amity?
A bit longer than a call in town, but we get there. Call 501-359-5550 and say water is getting in, and we move that job up. We can tarp the roof to stop the damage while we schedule the real repair, so a small leak does not turn into a ceiling.
