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 listing yourself at web.rcat.net/rcat/search.

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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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.

Danny and the crew from On the House Roof are amazing! They were professional and handled the job with attention to detail that is unmatched. The entire process from estimate, materials, delivery and installation and billing was easy as Danny was in constant communication along the way. I have never had so much confidence in a contractor - every detail was attended to - and we love our new roof. You won’t be disappointed with this company !

You don’t find many companies that work on home repairs/ roofing like this one. Danny was very personable and understanding from the start. He demonstrated transparency and gained my trust with the way they handle business. I highly recommend this roofing company to anyone in need. They fixed my roof same day and didn’t try to sell me on anything else. On the House roofing is a GEM.

On the House Roof Co recently replaced my hail damaged roof. Danny Powell inspected my roof and impressed me with his in-depth knowledge of roofing installation and roofing materials. I was particularly impressed by his proactive communication. Every step of the roof installation process was clearly explained and the all time-lines he stated were met promptly: the roofing materials were delivered on time; the roofers arrived on time; the job was completed on time; the clean-up was excellent; and the after-job support was outstanding. The company uses the highest quality roofing materials. Danny filed my GAF roofing material warranty information and completed a form for my insurance company that will reduce my homeowner’s premium as a result of using an upgraded Class 4 shingle. Danny even followed up several weeks after the roof was replaced to ensure that I was was completely satisfied with the roof as he is not just interested in making a sale, but is committed to building a long-term relationship with his customers. If you're looking for a roofing company in the central Texas area I highly recommend On the House Roof Co for quality work and customer satisfaction.

They replaced our roof in Fredericksburg TX in 2023. A recent hail storm (5/2025) concerned me. So, Jared came immediately to inspect the roof. Great news! The roof was completely intact!! No damage!! Highly recommend this company!

Honest, trustworthy, on time, professional, courteous. Second job by this business and I could not recommend it more. Danny and his team do great work and we love supporting local!

Frequently asked

Is niceroofer.com the same business as On The House Roof?
Yes. niceroofer.com is the live site for On the House Roof Co. of Llano, and the company's published contact email is danny@niceroofer.com, matching principal Philip Daniel Powell. The business also uses the domain onthehouseroofco.com, which was returning a certificate error at the time of this check.
What is the company's real public brand name?
It brands itself as On the House Roof Co. Its BBB record uses On the House Roof Company and its Facebook page uses On The House Roof Co.
Is On the House Roof Co. licensed by the State of Texas?
No, and neither is any other Texas roofer. Texas does not issue a state roofing licence. Verify insurance, RCAT standing, BBB record and manufacturer credentials instead, plus any city registration where you live.
What is the company's RCAT standing?
On The House Roof Company appears in the RCAT directory as a Member, meaning it belongs to the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas. Membership is separate from RCAT's individually earned Licensed Roofing Contractor credential, and the two are not interchangeable.
What manufacturer credential can be verified?
GAF lists On the House Roof Company in its own contractor directory as a GAF Certified roofer. That is GAF's entry level credential and it sits below Master Elite in GAF's tiers.
Why does the company push Class 4 shingles?
The Hill Country takes regular hail. UL 2218 Class 4 is the top impact rating in that standard, and many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for a Class 4 roof. Ask your own carrier what discount, if any, it applies before you pay for the upgrade.
Does it install metal roofs?
Yes. The company lists standing seam along with R-panel, U-panel, 5-V crimp and corrugated metal roofing.
How far does it travel from Llano?
It works the Llano area and out across the Hill Country and Central Texas, including Marble Falls, and keeps an Austin address on West Anderson Lane. Confirm coverage for your exact address when you call.
Do I need a permit for a roof replacement in Llano County?
Texas has no statewide building code enforcement and permitting is handled locally, so requirements differ between the City of Llano, unincorporated Llano County and Austin. Have the contractor confirm in writing who pulls the permit and books the inspection.
What should I check before signing with any Hill Country roofer?
Ask for proof of general liability and workers compensation insurance sent straight from the insurer, a written scope that names the shingle or metal panel product and the underlayment, the manufacturer and workmanship warranty terms in writing, and a payment schedule that does not require a large deposit before the insurance scope is settled.
