About
GonseRoof Services and Solutions LLC is a roofing contractor based in Brownsville, Texas, serving Cameron County and the Rio Grande Valley. The business was started on September 13, 2022, and is owned by Jorge Luis Gonzalez. The company is a BBB Accredited Business (A+ rating) since September 27, 2024, and appears in Owens Corning's contractor directory.
The company's Instagram account describes it as a roofing and solar specialist that works with homeowners on insurance claims, financing, and estimates. Customer feedback is mixed: BBB reviews describe a responsive sales and installation process, while a review on the verified platform GuildQuality described a negative experience related to subcontractor oversight. Homeowners should ask for current references and proof of insurance before signing a contract.
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 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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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
Does Texas require a state license for roofing contractors?
No. Texas has no statewide roofing license. Homeowners should verify a contractor's liability insurance directly and check for local city registration where applicable, rather than relying on any claim of state licensing.
What is RCAT and why does it matter?
RCAT (Roofing Contractors Association of Texas) offers plain membership as well as a separately earned Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL/RRL/CRL). Ask any roofer which status they hold, since the two are not the same thing.
Is Cameron County subject to coastal windstorm rules?
Yes. Cameron County is one of the 14 first-tier Gulf Coast counties covered by the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association (TWIA), so roofing work in Brownsville may need to meet WPI-8 windstorm certification standards for insurance purposes.
Does Brownsville require a roofing permit?
Texas has no statewide building code, so permitting is set by the city. Homeowners should confirm permit requirements with the City of Brownsville before work begins.
What should I ask a roofer before signing a contract?
Request proof of current general liability insurance, ask about workmanship and manufacturer warranties, get a written scope of work, and confirm whether the company or a subcontractor crew will perform the installation.
Does GonseRoof help with insurance claims?
The company's own marketing describes helping homeowners navigate denied insurance claims, financing, and estimates. Homeowners should confirm the current process directly with the company.
What roofing materials hold up best in South Texas heat and storms?
Impact-resistant (Class 4) shingles and properly fastened metal or shingle systems are commonly recommended in Texas coastal and hail-exposed areas; ask any contractor which options they install.
Is GonseRoof BBB accredited?
Yes, according to the BBB profile the business has been an Accredited Business with an A+ rating since September 27, 2024.
How long has GonseRoof been in business?
According to its BBB profile, the business was started on September 13, 2022.
Should I get multiple roofing quotes before choosing a contractor?
Yes. Comparing at least two or three written estimates, and checking recent reviews and BBB history, helps homeowners avoid storm-chaser contractors that are common after major weather events in Texas.
