About
Lamar Roofing is a family owned roofing company based in Paris, Texas, founded and led by Jimmy Gregory. The company says its mission is to bring honesty, quality and reliability to roofing work in Lamar County, treating customers like family and building its reputation through word of mouth.
The company handles residential and commercial roofing, including full replacements, repairs and storm restoration for hail and wind damage, and offers 24/7 emergency tarping. It installs Owens Corning shingles and metal roofing systems, and says completed jobs are reviewed by third party inspectors.
Lamar Roofing offers a discount for veterans and active duty service members and is open seven days a week.
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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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.
Does Lamar Roofing hold a Texas state roofing license?
Texas does not license roofing contractors at the state level, so there is no state license number to check for any Paris area roofer. Ask about general liability insurance and whether the company is affiliated with an association such as the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (RCAT) instead.
Is Lamar Roofing insured?
Ask Lamar Roofing to show a current certificate of general liability insurance before work starts. This directory verifies insurance separately from the research behind this profile, so confirm it directly with the company.
Is Lamar Roofing a member of RCAT?
A search of the RCAT member directory did not turn up a listing for Lamar Roofing. That means no record was found through RCAT's own search tool, not that the company is confirmed unlisted; ask the company directly about its RCAT status.
Why do Paris area roofers talk so much about hail?
Lamar County sits within the broader North Texas hail belt sometimes called Hail Alley, where large hailstorms are a leading cause of roof damage and insurance claims each year.
What is a Class 4 impact resistant shingle?
Class 4 shingles pass the toughest hail impact rating (UL 2218) and can qualify homeowners for an insurance discount in many Texas markets. Ask Lamar Roofing whether it installs Class 4 rated products.
Do I need a permit for a roof replacement in Paris, Texas?
Texas has no statewide building code, so permitting rules are set locally. Check with the City of Paris or Lamar County before work begins, and ask Lamar Roofing whether it pulls the permit as part of the job.
Does Lamar Roofing help with insurance claims?
Lamar Roofing's own site lists insurance claim support among its services. Ask for specifics on what that assistance covers and get any commitments in writing.
What should I ask before signing a contract with a roofer?
Ask for proof of current insurance, a written scope of work and materials list, a start and completion timeline, warranty terms, and who is responsible for pulling any required permit.
What roofing materials does Lamar Roofing work with?
The company's own site highlights Owens Corning shingles and metal roofing systems. Confirm current product lines and warranty options directly with the company.
How can I check Lamar Roofing's reputation before hiring?
No Better Business Bureau profile was found for this specific company. Ask for references from recent local jobs, and check its Facebook page and Google listing directly for current reviews.
