Agua Dulce, Spanish for "sweet water," is an unincorporated community in El Paso County with 3,218 residents in the 2020 census, up from 3,014 in 2010 and just 738 in 2000. It covers about 7.8 square miles at roughly 4,026 feet, uses ZIP code 79928 and falls in the Clint Independent School District. The 2020 census counted 616 households.
That works out to roughly 80 households per square mile, a spread-out community of larger lots compared with city neighborhoods. Because the community grew more than four-fold between 2000 and 2020, most of its homes are newer than the valley's older neighborhoods. Many are now reaching the age where a builder-grade roof begins to wear out in the sun.
If you are searching for a roofer near Agua Dulce, we connect you with a vetted local roofer who serves the east county and Lower Valley, starting with a free inspection and a written price. We are a referral service, not the contractor.
Roofing on large lots near Agua Dulce
On a large lot, roof size and shape drive the price more than they do on a compact city lot: outbuildings, carports, additions and detached garages each carry their own roof. Ask for each structure to be priced and described separately in the written estimate, so a patch on a shed does not get lumped in with a full replacement on the house.
Distance is the practical issue. A small leak is easy to put off when the nearest roofer feels far away, and then the next monsoon storm turns it into ceiling damage. Booking an inspection before June, rather than after a storm, is the cheapest habit a rural-edge homeowner can build.
- Wind and dust with little shelter on open ground
- Sun-dried sealant at vents and flashing on 10 to 20 year old roofs
- Low-slope sections over porches and garages that pond after storms
- Metal roofs on outbuildings with loose fasteners and lifted seams
