About
Green Knight Metal Roofing is an Austin company that installs metal roofing and nothing else. Its site is explicit about the specialization: the company states it will not install asphalt shingles, cement tiles, or clay tiles, and it has focused on residential and commercial metal roofs across Central Texas since 2007. The company reports having installed millions of square feet of metal roofing in the region and also fabricates and supplies its own sheet metal. Product options include standing seam systems in a wide range of colors, and metal shingles made to replicate wood shake, Spanish tile, slate, and even asphalt shingles, in aluminum and steel with Galvalume finish options. Services cover metal roof replacement, metal roof repair, metal wall cladding, gutters, and storm damage work. The company is led by CEO Joel Kenty and president Jim Parish, holds an associate member listing with the Texas Association of Builders, and reports industry recognition including Metal Roofing Alliance and Metal Construction Association awards and an Inc. 5000 listing. It operates from an office on FM 1626 in south Austin, serving communities from Georgetown to New Braunfels.

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 licence yourself at web.rcat.net/rcat/search — search #01-0454 or the company name.
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.

Several years ago I had my tar shingle roof replaced with metal. So when I needed new siding I called up Green Knight again to come and do the work. I could not be a more satisfied customer. My house is a fortress against the elements and it looks fantastic. I highly recommend this company.
We decided to replace a traditional asphalt roof with a metal roof as part of installing a whole house water catchment system to have the purest water possible. Joel Kenty, owner of Green Knight Metal Roofing, evaluated our roofing needs and provided us with an excellent choice for our new metal roof. We chose Green Knight over several other roofers based on quality of work and excellent reviews of previous jobs. We love the color and waffled look of our new metal roof. The dedicated, professional crew (not outsourced or temp workers but full time Green Knight crew)were systematic and efficient at removing our shingled roof and installing the metal roof which took a little under 10 days. Joel checked on progress of work almost every day and kept us informed of every detail. We highly recommend Joel Kenty and Green Knight Metal Roofing.
Green Knight Roofing absolutely knocked it out of the park with our new metal roof! From start to finish, the entire experience was outstanding. Joel Kenty, the CEO, was personally involved and truly exceptional—knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely cared about getting every detail right. His leadership clearly sets the tone for the whole company. The installation crew was fantastic: professional, hardworking, respectful of our property, and incredibly efficient. They cleaned up meticulously every single day and left the place spotless. The quality of workmanship is top-tier—everything looks perfect, the roof is beautiful, quiet during rain, and we already feel more confident about weather protection for years to come. We did a lot of research before choosing a roofer, and Green Knight Roofing was hands-down the best decision we made. If you're considering a metal roof (or any roofing project), do yourself a favor and call these guys first. You won’t find better service or better results. Highly, highly recommend! 5 stars aren’t enough. Thank you Joel and the entire Green Knight team!
Green Knight was great! We would definitely use them again. Michael, the sales rep, was helpful and knowledgeable about all the options! We had to wait several months for instillation due to supply chain issues, but our roof was worth the wait. The whole experience was great! Ismael, the contractor, texted me daily updates and photos of the progress. After the instillation I noticed the leaf guards were not reinstalled, and they came out quickly to fix the issue. We love our new metal roof, and have had lots of compliments from friends and neighbors.
Green Knight installed a new metal roof at our main house and "casita" in February 2026. We had a great experience. The crew showed up on time each day, were professional, addressed any questions or concerns, and cleaned up at end of each day during the 2 week job. We have gotten numerous compliments on the results. Joel, Michael, Ryan and Diego were a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend Green Knight!
