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 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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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. Ask any roofer for proof of their own liability insurance rather than relying on a state license claim.
What is RCAT and why does it matter?
RCAT offers plain membership as well as a separately earned Licensed Roofing Contractor credential. Confirm which status a contractor holds before hiring.
Is Jefferson County subject to coastal windstorm rules?
Yes. Jefferson County, including Groves, is a first-tier TWIA county, so roofing work here may need to meet WPI-8 windstorm certification for wind and hurricane insurance coverage.
What does 'hand-nailed' roofing mean, and why does it matter?
Hand-nailing shingles (versus using a pneumatic nail gun on default settings) can improve fastener placement and wind resistance, which matters in Golden Triangle counties exposed to hurricane-force winds.
Does Groves require a roofing permit?
Texas has no statewide building code, so permitting is set by the city. Confirm requirements with the City of Groves before work begins.
What should I ask before hiring a roofing contractor?
Ask for proof of current liability insurance, a written scope of work, and manufacturer or workmanship warranty terms.
Is Chapa's Roofing BBB accredited?
Yes. The BBB profile shows an A+ rating and accreditation since October 23, 2024.
How long has Chapa's Roofing been in business?
Its BBB profile lists a business-started date of January 1, 2009.
What areas does Chapa's Roofing serve?
Third-party listings describe service across the Golden Triangle, including Beaumont, Port Arthur, Orange, Nederland, Groves, Vidor, Bridge City, Lumberton, and Silsbee.
Should I get multiple quotes before a roof replacement?
Yes. Comparing written estimates and checking BBB history helps homeowners avoid overpaying or hiring an unqualified crew, especially after storms.
