About

G.E. Roofing & Construction is a small roofing and construction contractor operating from 6304 Pleasant Valley Rd in Wylie, east of Plano. The City of Plano register of general contractors carries the company at that address with the phone number (214) 850-5169. The business appears in public records under the fuller legal style G.E. Roofing and Construction LLC. The company describes itself on its Nextdoor business page as honest and reliable, local, and family owned and operated, with over forty years in the roofing business. It offers free roof inspections and estimates and works on both residential and commercial roofs across the Dallas Fort Worth area. Permit records place its roofing work in Plano and the wider Metroplex. Public information on this company is thin. No company website, no Google Business Profile and no BBB profile were located during research, and third party profiles on BuildZoom and Bidroom are unclaimed listings generated from permit data with no reviews attached. Homeowners considering the company should ask directly for a current certificate of general liability insurance, references from recent Plano or Wylie jobs, and written confirmation of who pulls the permit.

Insurance & credential verification

Texas does not issue a state roofing license, so we verify companies the way homeowners actually can: confirming insurance coverage, checking RCAT (Roofing Contractors Association of Texas) status, and checking city or county registration where the local jurisdiction requires one. Every credential below links to the actual issuing organization's own public lookup — don't just take our checkmark for it. Always ask for a current certificate of insurance before signing any contract.

InsuranceNot verified by us (we hold no certificate for this company — ask them for a current COI before signing)
RCAT statusNot listed
City/county registration Registered — Plano Check the register ↗ Registered general contractor, City of Plano. Roofing companies register in Plano's general contractor category, which also covers concrete, demolition, fence, foundation, pool and sign work; it is a $100 annual registration renewed yearly, and the city's published requirements do not list proof of insurance or a bond. This company appears on the city's own list of registered contractors. The city publishes no certificate number or expiry date for this programme, so ask to see the registration itself before work starts.

Confirm this yourself: ask the company for their certificate of insurance (COI). Note that RCAT's Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is earned and held by a named individual at a company, not by the business itself, which is why we name that person above where we know it; Texas issues no company roofing license at all. RCAT and NTRCA status can be checked in their own public directories (RCAT, NTRCA) — use the "Licensed"/"Accredited" filter to see more than plain membership. GAF's contractor verification tool and Owens Corning's Texas locator confirm those tiers directly; CertainTeed doesn't offer a comparable self-serve lookup, so ask to see that certificate in person. BBB accreditation and rating are on bbb.org. Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly. Corpus Christi's STAR program has its own online contractor registry — for any other city or county registration claim, confirm directly with that jurisdiction's permit office.

Frequently asked

What does the G.E. in the name stand for?
No source states what the initials stand for and the company does not expand them anywhere we could find, so we do not guess. They appear to be personal initials. This company has no connection of any kind to General Electric.
How is the name actually written?
The company writes it with periods and an ampersand: G.E. Roofing & Construction. The Plano register prints it run together as G.E.ROOFING & CONSTRUCTION, which is a formatting artefact of that document. Public filings show the fuller style G.E. Roofing and Construction LLC.
Where is the company based?
At 6304 Pleasant Valley Rd in Wylie, Texas 75098, east of Plano. It is registered with the City of Plano as a general contractor because it takes work there, not because it is a Plano based company.
Does Texas issue a roofing licence?
No. Texas has no state roofing licence, so nobody roofing in Wylie or Plano is state licensed. Verify insurance, city contractor registration, and any voluntary trade or manufacturer credentials instead.
Is the company an RCAT member?
A search of the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas member directory did not return a record, so the position is not found via RCAT search. RCAT membership is voluntary and many capable Texas roofers are not members.
What is the difference between RCAT Member and RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
A Member simply pays association dues. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential, shown as CRRL, RRL or CRL, is earned separately through RCAT's own testing and experience requirements. The two are not equivalent and should never be treated as the same thing.
How should I read a claim of over forty years in the business?
It is the company's own statement on its Nextdoor page and no incorporation record we found confirms it. It may refer to the owner's personal years in roofing rather than the age of this particular entity. Ask directly which and ask for references from jobs completed in the last two years.
Why does hail matter for a roof in Wylie or Plano?
This corner of Collin County sits in the North Texas hail corridor, where severe hail is the leading cause of roof replacement. Most replacements go through an insurance claim, and the roof's age and prior condition materially affect what the carrier pays.
Should I specify impact resistant shingles?
It is worth pricing. Class 4 impact rated shingles are tested under UL 2218 against simulated hail and many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for them. Ask for the Class 4 rating in writing and confirm the discount with your own carrier first.
What should I ask a contractor with a light online footprint?
Ask for a certificate of general liability insurance sent directly from the insurance agent, proof of workers compensation cover or a plain statement that there is none, three recent local references with addresses you can drive past, a written scope naming the exact products, and confirmation that the permit will be pulled in the company's own registered name.
