About
RH Roofing is a long established roofing and exterior contractor in Johnson County, Texas, south of Fort Worth. Its Better Business Bureau file gives Joshua as the company location and records the business as established in 1981, with BBB accreditation held continuously since 1998. The company's own contact page gives a street address of 8008 Walnut Drive in Alvarado, a few miles away in the same county.
It is a family business. The BBB file names Barbara Hinson as owner and Troy Hinson as co owner, and the company's own contact page lists Troy Hinson alongside Jason Hinson, Gerald Saylor and Mike LaSalle. Troy Hinson is the contact recorded on the City of Arlington contractor register, and the direct line published for him on the company's own site is the exact number the register carries.
The work goes well beyond roofs. Alongside installation, replacement, repair and routine inspection, the company fits Hardie fibre cement siding, soffit and fascia, exterior trim, windows and custom gutters, rebuilds chimney boxes, and handles clean up and haul off. It names Arlington among the areas it serves.

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.

City/county registration
Registered — Arlington Check the register ↗Registered contractor, City of Arlington. Arlington registers roofing companies in its general contractor category; its published dataset carries no registration number and no expiry date, and the dataset itself may lag by some months.. 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.
RegionJoshua
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
Is RH Roofing licensed by the State of Texas?
Texas issues no state roofing license, so no Texas roofer holds one. What can be checked is different: current general liability and workers compensation insurance, registration with the cities where the company pulls permits, and voluntary credentials. Ask for the certificate of insurance to come directly from the insurance agent and confirm it is live on the day your job starts.
What does the BBB accreditation mean here?
The Better Business Bureau file for this company records it as an accredited business with an A plus rating, accredited since 22 May 1998, and shows no out of business alert. Accreditation is a paid BBB programme with conduct standards and a complaint handling process. It is a useful signal of longevity and responsiveness, and it is not a government license or a technical certification.
What does the City of Arlington contractor registration prove?
That the company signed up with Arlington so it can pull permits there. Arlington's published register gives a company name, address, contact person, phone and contractor type and nothing else. There is no registration number, no status column and no expiry date, and every roofer on the list is typed as General Contractor. So it confirms presence on the city list. It is not a status check and not proof of insurance.
Where is the company actually based, Joshua or Alvarado?
Both appear in genuine sources and both sit in Johnson County. The BBB file and the Arlington register give Joshua, at the 76058 postcode. The company's own contact page gives 8008 Walnut Drive, Alvarado, at 76009. They are a few miles apart. For practical purposes it is a Johnson County contractor working south of Fort Worth and into the metroplex.
What does the RH in the name stand for?
The company does not say, and we will not guess. The BBB file records the alternative trading names R slash H Associates and R-H Roofing without expanding the initials. Given that the owners are the Hinson family, the H plausibly relates to the surname, but no source states this, so treat any expansion you see elsewhere as invented.
Is RH Roofing an RCAT member?
It was not found via a search of the RCAT directory. That is a statement about the search, not a finding that the company is absent. RCAT membership is voluntary and many established Texas roofers never join. If the credential matters to you, ask the company, and ask separately whether anyone there holds the RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor designation.
How is RCAT Member different from RCAT Licensed?
They are not interchangeable. Membership of the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas is bought by joining and paying dues. The Licensed Roofing Contractor programme, carrying the designations CRRL, RRL and CRL, is earned by an individual through examination. A member firm may have nobody holding the credential. When a contractor mentions RCAT, ask which of the two is meant.
Does hail matter in Johnson County?
Very much. Johnson County sits in the North Texas hail belt, and hail is the leading reason roofs are replaced across this part of the state. Storms through spring and early summer bruise asphalt shingles and dent metal in ways that are hard to see from ground level, so an inspection after a significant storm is worth arranging even when the roof looks intact.
Should I choose Class 4 impact resistant shingles?
In this part of Texas it is usually worth pricing. Class 4 is the top result in the UL 2218 steel ball impact test and many Texas insurers discount premiums for a Class 4 roof. Ask your own carrier for the discount in writing before committing, because the size of it differs a great deal between insurers and decides whether the upgrade pays back.
Do inland North Texas roofs need windstorm certification?
No. WPI-8 windstorm certificates and TWIA coverage belong to the fourteen first tier counties along the Texas Gulf Coast. Johnson, Tarrant and the surrounding inland counties are outside that programme entirely, so windstorm certification has no bearing on a roof in Joshua, Alvarado or Arlington.
