About
Sea-Breeze Roofing, Inc. is a commercial roofing contractor at 1927 Ahrens Street in Houston, in Harris County. The company brands itself as "Houston's reliable choice since 1982" and works primarily on commercial, industrial and institutional buildings rather than houses. Its BBB profile has been accredited since 1995 and carries an A+ rating, and lists Calvin Johnson as principal.
The work centres on low slope commercial systems: new installation, leak and damage repair, and yearly preventive maintenance plans built around scheduled inspections. The company says it works routinely with school districts, universities and commercial and industrial property owners, and it holds vendor positions on public purchasing cooperatives used by Texas school districts. Its BBB profile also lists modified bitumen and residential composition shingle work alongside the commercial side.
Sea-Breeze states that it is a certified installer for more than twelve major manufacturers, naming Johns Manville, Elevate (formerly Firestone), Polyglass, GAF, Versico, CertainTeed, Hyload, U.S. Ply, Berridge, Garland and Peterson. Of those, only the GAF relationship could be confirmed independently: GAF's own contractor directory carries a listing for Sea-Breeze Roofing Inc in Houston. The remaining manufacturer approvals are stated by the company and were not verified at each manufacturer's own directory.

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 license roofing contractors?
No. There is no Texas state roofing licence and no state roofing board, so no roofer in Texas is "state-licensed". Verification comes from current insurance certificates, city or county registration where it applies, and the company's own track record.
What does RCAT membership mean, and how is it different from the Licensed credential?
RCAT is the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas. Plain membership means the company pays dues and belongs to the association. RCAT separately awards a Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) that has to be earned through testing and continuing education. The two are not interchangeable.
Sea-Breeze is in Houston. Does a WPI-8 windstorm certificate apply here?
No. WPI-8 certificates are issued by the Texas Department of Insurance for structures in the 14 first-tier coastal counties covered by the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association. Harris County, where this company is based, is not one of them. Coastal windstorm certification only becomes relevant if a specific project sits inside a designated first-tier county or a small qualifying part of Harris County adjacent to the coast, and that is determined by the project address, not by the roofer's address.
Does the company do residential roofs?
Its own website is built around commercial installation, commercial repair and maintenance programs. The BBB profile also lists residential composition shingle work. If you have a house, ask directly whether they take on residential jobs of your size rather than assuming from the listing.
Which manufacturer certifications are confirmed?
GAF is confirmed: GAF's own contractor directory carries a listing for Sea-Breeze Roofing Inc in Houston. The company also states it is a certified installer for Johns Manville, Elevate (formerly Firestone), Polyglass, Versico, CertainTeed, Hyload, U.S. Ply, Berridge, Garland and Peterson. Those are stated by the company and were not each confirmed at the manufacturer's own directory. Ask for the certification letter for the specific system being quoted.
Why does a manufacturer certification matter on a commercial roof?
Manufacturer no dollar limit and system warranties on low slope commercial roofs are normally only available through installers the manufacturer has approved, and the manufacturer inspects the finished roof before issuing the warranty. If a system warranty is part of what you are buying, confirm in writing that the contractor is approved for that exact system.
What is a roof maintenance program and is it worth it?
It is a scheduled plan, usually annual, of inspection, debris clearing, sealant and flashing checks and small repairs. On a large flat roof it is normally far cheaper than replacing a roof that failed early from unaddressed ponding or split seams, and most manufacturer warranties require documented maintenance to stay valid.
Does hail matter in Houston?
Yes, though not as intensely as in the North and Central Texas hail corridor. Houston still sees damaging hail and severe thunderstorm wind. For low slope commercial roofs the relevant durability measures are the membrane thickness, the cover board and the manufacturer's hail rating for the assembly rather than the Class 4 shingle rating used on steep slope residential roofs.
Who handles permits and inspections for a commercial roof in Houston?
Texas has no single statewide building code enforcement body, so permitting is handled locally. In Houston that means the city's permitting office, and outside the city limits it means Harris County or the relevant municipality. Confirm in the contract who pulls the permit and who schedules inspections.
What should a Texas property owner check before signing?
Ask for certificates of general liability and workers compensation insurance sent directly by the insurance agent. Get the full system specification in writing, including insulation, cover board, membrane thickness and flashing details. Get the manufacturer warranty and the contractor's separate workmanship warranty in writing. Confirm the deductible is being handled lawfully, since Texas law prohibits a contractor from waiving or absorbing an insurance deductible.
