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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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. Verify a contractor's own liability insurance rather than any claim of state licensing.
What is RCAT and why does it matter?
RCAT offers plain membership as well as a separately earned Licensed Roofing Contractor credential. Ask which status a contractor actually holds.
Is Jefferson County subject to coastal windstorm rules?
Yes. Jefferson County, including Nederland, 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 roofing materials does Abshire Roofing use?
According to the company's own site, Abshire Roofing installs architectural composition shingles, composite shingles, and metal roofing, along with flat roof systems.
Does Nederland require a roofing permit?
Texas has no statewide building code, so permitting is set by the city. Confirm requirements with the City of Nederland 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 Abshire Roofing BBB accredited?
Yes. The BBB profile shows an A+ rating and accreditation since December 1, 2005.
How long has Abshire Roofing been in business?
Its BBB profile lists a business-started date of January 1, 1987; the company's own site describes the founder starting the business roughly 36 years before its current site content was written.
What are Abshire Roofing's hours?
Third-party listings show Monday-Saturday 8:00am-6:00pm, closed Sunday.
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.
