Serving Neighborhoods Adjacent to the Fort Bliss Installation

The Fort Bliss military reservation encompasses a vast area in Northeast and Central El Paso.

Common Roofing Systems in Fort Bliss Perimeter Neighborhoods:

  • Mid-Century Flat Roofs with Parapets: Subdivisions built between 1950 and 1980 in Central El Paso and Logan Heights feature built-up asphalt and gravel or torch-down membranes that suffer from scupper blockages during sudden summer downpours.
  • Architectural Shingle Rakes and Ridges: Homes along the Franklin Mountain foothills experience severe downdrafts that peel loose shingles from eave edges.
  • Swamp Cooler Stand Leaks: Evaporative cooler frames mounted directly to flat roof membranes require specialized curb resealing when vibration wears through asphalt base sheets.
  • Commercial Low-Slope Parapet Copings: Retail storefronts along Montana Ave and Dyer St frequently require emergency tarping after desert windstorms dislodge coping metals.

What to Do if You Live in Off-Post Military Rental Housing

If you are active-duty military, a veteran, or a civilian living in an off-base privately owned home or civilian apartment in El Paso:

  1. If you own the property, you can authorize emergency tarping or roofing repairs directly with an independent contractor.
  2. If you lease a civilian rental property, notify your civilian landlord or property management company immediately before authorizing work.
  3. If you reside inside on-post privatized family housing, you must contact your post housing maintenance facility directly, as third-party commercial contractors cannot perform unauthorized work on military-managed assets.
