About
Clark Roofing is a Waco based roofing and metal building contractor at 221 Cotton Drive in McLennan County, with a second office in Dallas. The company traces its origins to J. Michael Clark Builders, Inc., a Waco custom home builder and general contractor, and states it has been delivering customer focused service and quality at a fair price since 1987. Its own history page credits that builder background, including work on the River Square Center remodel in downtown Waco.
The scope is broader than roofing alone. Alongside commercial and residential roof replacement, roof repair and inspections, the company offers silicone roof coatings, infrared leak detection, storm damage inspections, pre-engineered metal buildings, steel building construction and ACM panel systems. Materials it works with include asphalt shingles, metal roofing, Decra stone coated steel shingles and silicone coating systems.
The company states it is fully insured, workers compensation insured and bonded, and that it is certified by GenFlex and Johns Manville. Those two manufacturer claims are stated by the company and could not be confirmed on either manufacturer's own contractor directory, so treat them as unverified. Its RCAT standing is recorded here as Licensed Roofing Contractor. It holds an A+ rating with the BBB but is not a BBB Accredited Business.

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.

Confirm this licence yourself at web.rcat.net/rcat/search — search #03-0611 or the company name.
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.

We had an excellent experience with Clark Roofing. Joseph came out the same day to provide a quote, and it was very fair compared to others we considered. He was incredibly helpful in walking us through our options without any pressure and made the entire process easy to understand.
Communication was outstanding from start to finish. Joseph kept us updated throughout the project, and after everything was finalized, we had a brand-new roof within just a few days. The crew was professional, efficient, and did great work.
Highly recommend Clark Roofing if you’re looking for honest service, fair pricing, and fast, high-quality work.

We were turned on to Joseph with Clark roofing thru our insurance agent. Joseph was very prompt in giving us an inspection and helping navigate the insurance adjuster. The communication during the project was excellent and the roofing crew did a great job. Everything was done as discussed and cleaned up in 1 day. Would recommend Clark roofing and Joseph Hardy to anyone looking for a roofing contractor.

Joseph with Clark roofing did a fantastic job replacing our roof. His communication was prompt and he answered every question we had prior to our installation. He even installed extra roof vents that we had not requested at no extra charge to us! 10 out of 10 Service.

My wife and I were very pleased with the replacement of our roof due to hail damage.
We decided to replace with Decra metal XD shingles. Waldo from Clark Roofing was very knowledgeable about the shingles and installation. They used a crew from Dallas TX to install the roof which added some cost to installation but the crew was very professional and we could tell that they had done this many times.

Phenomenal service! Prompt response to inquiries, knowledgeable staff, lightening speed roof replacement (instillation was just one day!), would definitely use Clark Roofing again. Joseph made the entire process smooth and seamless. Hands down the best roofer in central Texas!

Frequently asked
Does Clark Roofing hold a Texas state roofing licence?
Texas does not license roofing contractors. There is no state roofing licence, no state roofing board and no state licence number to verify for any Texas roofer. The credentials that do exist are voluntary, through the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas, plus city or county registration where it is required. Clark Roofing is recorded here with RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor standing, which is an industry credential rather than a government licence.
What is the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
An RCAT Member simply pays dues to the association. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is earned separately through testing and continuing education requirements. They are not the same thing and should not be presented as equivalent. Clark Roofing is listed with the Licensed Roofing Contractor status.
Is Clark Roofing BBB accredited?
No. Its BBB profile carries an A+ rating but the profile states the business is not BBB Accredited. Those are two separate things: the letter rating is BBB's own assessment, while accreditation is a paid programme a business opts into. Not being accredited is not a complaint or a negative mark, but it is worth knowing the distinction rather than reading A+ as accreditation.
How long has the company been in business?
Its own site and history page state 1987, tied to its origin in J. Michael Clark Builders, Inc. The BBB profile lists a business start date of August 2017 for the current entity, which is a limited liability company. Both can be true if the roofing arm was reorganised as a separate LLC later. If the exact operating history matters to you, ask the company to explain the entity history.
What roofing materials and systems does it install?
Asphalt shingles and metal roofing, including Decra stone coated steel shingles, plus silicone roof coating systems for low slope roofs and pre-engineered metal building systems. It also installs ACM panel systems on commercial facades.
Are its GenFlex and Johns Manville certifications verified?
Not independently. The company states on its own website that it is certified by GenFlex and Johns Manville, but we could not confirm either on those manufacturers' own contractor directories, so we report them as stated by the company. If a manufacturer system warranty matters for your project, ask Clark for the certification number and the warranty term in writing and confirm it with the manufacturer directly.
What is a silicone roof coating and when does it make sense?
It is a fluid applied membrane rolled or sprayed over an existing low slope roof to seal it and add years of service life without a tear off. It works when the existing roof is structurally sound and the insulation underneath is dry. It does not work when there is trapped moisture, which is why an infrared or moisture scan should come first. Coatings are usually far cheaper than replacement, so ask for both options priced side by side.
Should I ask about impact resistant shingles in Waco?
Yes. McLennan County sits in the Central Texas hail belt, and Class 4 impact resistant shingles are rated under UL 2218 to resist cracking from a standardised steel ball impact. Many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for a verified Class 4 roof, but the discount and eligibility rules differ by carrier. Ask for the specific product and its Class 4 rating in writing, then confirm the discount with your own insurer.
Do I need a permit to reroof in Waco?
Texas has no statewide building code enforcement, so permitting and inspection are handled by each city and county. Roof replacement typically requires a permit inside Waco city limits, and commercial work and metal building construction carry additional review. Confirm requirements with the City of Waco inspection services department and make the contract state who pulls the permit.
What should I ask before signing a roofing contract in Texas?
Ask for a certificate of insurance sent directly from the insurance agent showing current general liability and workers compensation, since Texas does not require roofers to carry workers compensation. Get the scope in writing including decking replacement pricing, underlayment, flashing and ventilation. Ask whether the warranty is a manufacturer system warranty or the contractor's own workmanship warranty, and for how long. Never pay in full up front, and remember that paying or waiving your insurance deductible is illegal in Texas.
