Single-story tile homes from the late 1990s

Springfield's homes are single-story ranch designs, from roughly 1,000 to more than 3,100 square feet, built by Pulte Homes before Pulte acquired Del Webb. 55places counts 742 homes in the community, all with tile roofs according to its description.

Single-story homes have a lot of roof area relative to their size. That means more valleys, hips and edges, and more places where aging felt underlayment can let water through.

Where 25–30 year old roofs stand

Felt underlayment under tile typically lasts about 20–25 years in the Arizona sun. Springfield homes from 1996–2000 are at or past that range if the roof has never been redone.

Owners are already acting on it. One listing describes a 1998 Springfield home with a tile roof replaced in 2023. If yours is still original, an inspection will tell you whether to plan a re-felt soon or whether repairs can carry it a few more years.

A roof walk-through you can share with family

Many Springfield owners like to have a son, daughter or trusted friend involved in roofing decisions. We're glad to walk the property with whoever you'd like there, and we take photos so family who live out of state can see exactly what we found.

We put our findings and options in writing and never pressure anyone into signing on the spot. Take the time you need, ask questions, and call us back when you're ready.

Getting through the guard gate

Springfield is guard-gated, so a little planning saves time on the day of your appointment. When you call to schedule, let us know how your gate works and whether the guard needs our company name added to a visitor list.

For multi-day work like a re-felt, it helps to set up access for the whole project at once so crews and deliveries aren't held at the gate.

Golf course and lake lots

Springfield has an 18-hole executive course that opened in 1996, plus a lake. Homes along the fairways can catch stray golf balls, and a direct hit can crack a concrete tile. One cracked tile is a small fix, but it exposes the felt to sun and water if it's left in place for long.

If you live on the course, glance at your roof from the yard a few times a year and call us for tile repair when you spot a broken piece.

Monsoon season and the San Tan foothills

Monsoon season runs June 15–September 30, and south Chandler often takes the brunt of storms rolling in from the southeast. Wind can shift tiles that are already loose, and heavy rain finds any opening in tired underlayment.

After a storm, check for broken tile in the yard and stains on ceilings. Our storm damage repair team can inspect and handle repairs, and we document what we find with photos.

Who built Springfield in Chandler?

Pulte Homes built Springfield between 1996 and 2000, before Pulte acquired Del Webb.

How many homes are in Springfield?

55places lists 742 homes, and a realtor page says about 700+.

Is Springfield the same as Springfield Lakes?

No. Springfield is the 55+ community built by Pulte in 1996–2000. Springfield Lakes is the recorded plat name used in MLS for Solera, a separate Del Webb 55+ community nearby.

Does the Springfield HOA maintain my roof?

The HOA covers grounds and street maintenance according to community descriptions. We have no record of it covering roofs, so check your CC&Rs; owners are typically responsible for their own roof.

My Springfield roof is original. Is it time to re-felt?

Probably soon, if not already. Felt under tile commonly lasts 20–25 years in Arizona, and these homes are 25–30 years old. An inspection will confirm it.

Can a family member join the roof inspection?

Yes. We're happy to have family present, and we take photos so anyone who can't be there can still see the findings.

How do you handle the guard gate?

Tell us your gate procedure when you schedule, and we'll make sure the guard has our name. For longer projects, we set up access for the full job.

Can a golf ball break a tile roof?

Yes, a direct hit can crack concrete tile. Replace cracked tiles promptly so the underlayment isn't left exposed.
