About
F4 Roofing and Construction LLC is an Arlington, Texas roofing and exterior contractor in the 76001 postcode on the city's south side, in Tarrant County. The phone number on the City of Arlington contractor register, (817) 404-7000, matches the number published on the company's own website and on its BBB file, and the register's contact name Rick Longoria matches the BBB principal Roderick Longoria. This is one of the few companies in the Arlington register that is genuinely an Arlington business rather than an out of town registrant.
The BBB file lists two managing partners, Roderick Longoria and Shawn Daniel Serfass, records the business as started on 11 June 2024, and gives the employee count as two. BBB accreditation followed quickly, on 8 August 2024, and the company currently carries an A rating. That makes this a genuinely young company, and a homeowner should weigh a short trading history accordingly rather than assume it either way.
The company's own site is brief. It states that F4 Roofing and Construction was started to put people over profits and set new standards in the roofing industry, and lists residential roofing, commercial roofing, roof repairs and full replacements. The BBB service list is wider, adding fencing, siding, metal roofing, insulation, flat roofing, replacement windows and gutters. The company does not explain what F4 stands for anywhere we could find, and we do not guess. No manufacturer certification from GAF, Owens Corning or CertainTeed appears on the site or on any profile we read.
Highlights
Genuinely Arlington based, in the 76001 postcode, with the register's phone number matching the number the company publishes itself.
Two named managing partners on the BBB file, Roderick (Rick) Longoria and Shawn Daniel Serfass, so ownership is on the public record rather than anonymous.
BBB accredited within two months of forming, on 8 August 2024, and currently rated A.
Works beyond roofing into siding, fencing, insulation, windows and gutters, which suits a homeowner handling several storm damaged elements in one claim.
A young business, formed 11 June 2024, so the trading record is short and worth weighing directly rather than assumed.
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.
RegionArlington
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
How long has F4 Roofing and Construction been in business?
The BBB file records the business as started on 11 June 2024 and accredited by the BBB on 8 August 2024. That is a short trading history, so ask for recent local references you can actually call, and check that the workmanship warranty is written down and backed by something you could enforce.
What does the F4 in the name stand for?
The company does not say. Nothing on its website, its BBB file or any profile we read explains the name, and we will not invent an expansion for it. If it matters to you, ask them directly.
Does Texas issue a state roofing licence?
No. Texas has no state roofing licence and no state roofing board. What you can verify instead is current general liability and workers compensation insurance, city registration where the city requires it (Arlington does), voluntary trade credentials, and the company's own track record.
What does the City of Arlington contractor registration prove?
It shows the company is registered with the city so permits can be issued for work in Arlington. Arlington's published dataset carries the company name, address, a contact person, a phone number and a contractor type, with every roofer typed as General Contractor. It has no registration number, no status field and no expiry date, so it cannot be read as proof the registration is current today. Ask the company to confirm before work begins.
What is RCAT, and does this company appear in it?
RCAT is the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas, a voluntary trade body with two separate things: plain paid membership, and a distinct Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) earned separately. We searched the RCAT directory and found no record for this company. That is the absence of a voluntary membership, not a finding against the company.
Why does hail matter for an Arlington roof?
Arlington sits in the North Texas hail corridor, and hail is the leading cause of roof insurance claims across Tarrant County. It is why roofs here often need replacing well before the shingle's nominal lifespan, and why impact rated shingles and a proper post storm inspection are worth discussing before you commit.
Are Class 4 impact resistant shingles worth it in Tarrant County?
Class 4 is the top rating in the UL 2218 steel ball impact test, and many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for Class 4 roofing. In a hail exposed county that discount can offset a meaningful part of the upgrade over time. Ask your contractor which Class 4 products they install, then confirm the discount with your own insurer in writing before deciding.
How do I check a roofer's insurance in Texas?
Ask the insurance agent to send you the certificate of insurance directly rather than accepting a copy from the contractor, and check that general liability and workers compensation are both current on the day work starts. Texas does not require most private employers to carry workers compensation, so ask about it specifically. An uninsured injury on your roof can become your problem.
Do I need a permit to replace a roof in Arlington?
Texas has no statewide building code, so permitting and inspection are handled city by city. Arlington runs its own permitting and requires contractors to be registered with the city first. Confirm in writing who is pulling the permit and who schedules the final inspection, because that responsibility is easy to leave unclaimed.
Can a roofer handle my insurance claim?
A Texas roofer can meet the adjuster, document the damage and supply a detailed estimate. What they cannot do without a separate licence is act as a public insurance adjuster on your claim, and Texas law prohibits a contractor from paying or absorbing your deductible. Any offer to waive or cover a deductible should end the conversation.
