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.

RegionPort Arthur
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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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 Mendez Roofing BBB accredited?
Yes. Its BBB profile shows accreditation since June 1, 2018 with an A+ rating, and lists the business as started April 22, 2009 under owner Abigail Mendez.
Does Texas issue a state roofing license?
No. Texas has no statewide roofing license. Ask any roofing contractor for proof of current general liability insurance instead.
Is Jefferson County a windstorm insurance zone?
Yes. Jefferson County, including Port Arthur, is one of the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association's first-tier coastal counties, often called WPI-8 territory. Ask whether your roof needs a windstorm inspection certificate.
What is the difference between roof restoration and re-roofing?
Restoration typically repairs and extends the life of an existing roof surface, while re-roofing replaces it. Ask the contractor which approach fits your roof's condition and get their reasoning in writing.
What should I ask before signing a roofing contract in Port Arthur?
Get a written scope of work, the material brand and type, labor and manufacturer warranty terms, and proof of current insurance before any deposit changes hands.
Does the City of Port Arthur require a roofing permit?
Texas has no statewide building code, so permitting is set locally. Confirm permit requirements directly with the applicable city building department.
How do I verify a roofing contractor's insurance?
Ask for a certificate of insurance and, where possible, confirm coverage directly with the named insurer.
Does Mendez Roofing handle commercial flat roofs?
Yes, commercial flat roof repair is among the services listed on its BBB profile alongside standard residential roofing work.
Should I get multiple quotes for metal roof restoration?
Yes. Comparing written quotes helps confirm fair pricing and lets you check the proposed restoration method and warranty terms across bidders.
What warranty should I expect on roofing work?
Ask for both a manufacturer material warranty and a separate labor warranty in writing, along with what voids each one.
