About
GMA Restoration, Inc. is a construction and storm recovery company headquartered at 3515B Longmire Dr, Suite 243 in College Station, founded by Gary Sanders Jr. The company has operated since December 2000 and specializes in restoring homes and businesses after hail, wind, and water damage, offering roofing, Hardie siding, painting, patio roof covers, and solar panel installation.
GMA Restoration has been a BBB Accredited Business since 2018 and holds an A+ rating. It also maintains a separately BBB-registered second location in Spring, Texas with its own phone number, which is a genuine additional branch rather than the same College Station listing duplicated.
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.

RCAT statusNot listed
City/county registration
Not checked for College StationTexas has no state roofing licence, and city rules differ: some require contractor registration, some run a voluntary registry, some neither. Ask this company and your local permit office.
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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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 GMA Restoration insured?
Texas does not license roofing contractors at the state level, so insurance is the main protection homeowners have. Ask GMA Restoration for a current certificate of general liability insurance before any work begins.
Is GMA Restoration licensed by the State of Texas?
Texas has no statewide roofing license, so there is no state license number to check for any roofing company, including this one. Trust is instead based on insurance coverage, manufacturer certifications, BBB standing, and a verifiable track record.
Is GMA Restoration an RCAT Member or a Licensed Roofing Contractor?
GMA Restoration's own website references RCAT, but a search of the RCAT (Roofing Contractors Association of Texas) directory for the company did not return a matching listing. Ask the company directly to confirm current RCAT status, and note that RCAT Member and RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor (CRRL/RRL/CRL) are two different, non-equivalent statuses.
Is GMA Restoration a GAF Master Elite contractor?
GMA Restoration's own website states it holds GAF Master Elite certification, a manufacturer credential earned by a limited percentage of roofing contractors nationally.
Is GMA Restoration BBB accredited?
Yes. Its BBB profile shows accreditation since April 4, 2018, with an A+ rating.
How long has GMA Restoration been in business?
Its BBB profile lists a business start date of December 4, 2000, about 25 years of operation.
Does GMA Restoration install Class 4 impact-resistant shingles?
This was not confirmed in the sources reviewed. Brazos County sees hail activity typical of Central Texas, so it is worth asking GMA Restoration directly whether Class 4 impact-resistant shingles are available and whether your insurer offers a premium discount for them.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in College Station?
Texas has no statewide building code, so permitting requirements are set locally. Confirm permit requirements directly with the City of College Station before work begins.
What is GMA Restoration's Google rating?
No numeric Google rating or review count could be verified for this company at the time of this review; the company's own Google review link could not be read for exact figures.
What should I ask before signing with any College Station roofer?
Ask for proof of current liability insurance, proof of any claimed manufacturer certification, a written scope of work and materials list, and how storm damage insurance claims are handled. Get everything in writing before any deposit changes hands.
