About

Southwestern Roofing has worked the Greater Houston market since 1980, when Vincent Place founded the company. It is still family owned and operated, and it runs from an office at 11745 Jones Road in northwest Houston, Harris County. Better Business Bureau records list a business start date of December 1980 and BBB accreditation running back to November 1989 at an A+ rating, with Vincent Place named as president and owner. GAF's own contractor directory lists the company as a Master Elite contractor with President's Club recognition, a tier GAF reserves for a small share of the contractors it certifies. Beyond roof installation, replacement, repair, routine maintenance and inspection, the company handles siding replacement, gutters and leaf guard systems, window replacement, exterior painting, patios, decks, fencing and interior remodeling, which is a wider remodeling scope than a roofing-only firm. Its published service area covers Houston and the surrounding suburbs, including Cypress, Spring, Tomball, Katy, The Woodlands, Pearland, Sugar Land, Missouri City, Richmond, Humble, Hockley, Waller, League City and La Porte. The company also lists membership in the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas and the Cy-Fair Houston Chamber of Commerce. Note that the website address on file, southwesternroofing.net, now redirects to southwesternroof.com.

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.

Southwestern Roofing replace my roof 22 years ago. Houston weather has been a little rough over that time. I would have stretched it a few more if not for a leaky skylight. It was time. Also on removal list was a 2nd story fireplace in the Primary. It was cute at first, but years fighting bee hives and birds nesting removed that cozy feeling. The reason I chose Southwestern is for a partner that will stand behind their work. If there is a problem, it is addressed. No excuses. I like that about them. Many thanks to Gary Pinina (our original salesman from 2004) for coordinating the group. Raul did fantastic workmanship on the fireplace removal. Looks like it was never there. Julio and the roof team competed installation in one day. The team did a great job on protecting plants and cleanup.

Southwestern Roofing is one of the most professional organizations I have dealt with. Their representative Gary was very knowledgeable, very unassuming and a very friendly individual. He was very upfront about the roof replacement I needed to get done on my nearly 6000 sft home, the cost and timing of the job. The leader of the work crew Julio was also so impressive that he was one of the main reasons I was convinced I should get my old roof replaced by this team. And what a team of hard working young men Julio had! I am so glad I spent the roughly $28k to get a brand new roof from such an organization!

We are so happy with Southwestern. They did a lot amazing job on our new roof in November of 2025. At that point we asked them for a quote on their remodeling services as we wanted to renovate our main bathroom. They started in early February and we are in awe of our new space. From 1992 blah to modern WOW! Seriously every time we walk in there we can't believe the change! Luis and his team were wonderful and worked with us to give us exactly what we wanted. We will happily use SW again and would 100% recommend them to anyone!

Been working with Southwestern Roofing for over 20 years. My previous roofer was Luis Flores, he passed away from cancer last year. They set me up with Carlos and he’s done a great job for me and my clients. Very reasonable and kinds. Good experience every time!! Thanks!!

I have been using Southwestern Roofing over 27 years. Great professional service by rep Gary Pinina. Used them in 1998 to correct another contractor’s mistakes. In 2010 had Gary and his crew add a covered patio built into back of garage to match into existing roof. In 2015 had Southwestern Roofing replace roof and price was great. Gary followed through on everything until job was completed. In 2024 had Gary with Superior Fence which is part of Southwestern Roofing replaced over 100 feet of cedar fence. Excellent price and friendly service by Gary. In June of 2026 had Gary give me a quote on sheetrock repair and paint after foundation repair was completed. Excellent price as always. Willie and his crew did an exceptional job and compete clean up when finished. You can not go wrong with using Southwestern Roofing and Gary Pinina is an exceptional representative.

Frequently asked

Is Southwestern Roofing licensed by the State of Texas?
Texas does not issue a statewide roofing contractor licence, so no Texas roofer holds one. What you can actually check is voluntary industry standing, insurance, and city or county registration. Southwestern Roofing is carried by the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas as a Member, and it is BBB accredited in Houston with an A+ rating dating back to 1989.
What is the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
They are two separate things. Membership means the company belongs to the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas and pays dues. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is earned separately through RCAT's own testing and experience requirements. Southwestern Roofing appears with Member status, which is not the same as the earned Licensed credential.
What does GAF Master Elite actually mean?
Master Elite is GAF's top residential certification tier. GAF requires certified contractors to be properly insured and licensed where the state or city requires it, and Master Elite status lets the contractor offer GAF's longer enhanced system warranties. Southwestern Roofing appears on GAF's own contractor directory at Master Elite level with President's Club recognition, which you can confirm directly on gaf.com rather than taking any contractor's word for it.
How do I verify a Houston roofer's insurance before I sign?
Ask for a certificate of insurance sent to you directly by the insurance agent or carrier, not a PDF forwarded by the contractor. It should show general liability and workers compensation, current effective dates, and your name as certificate holder. If a roofer will not arrange that, treat it as a red flag.
Does Houston get enough hail to worry about impact resistant shingles?
Harris County sits outside the worst of the North and Central Texas hail belt, but it still takes damaging hail and severe thunderstorm wind. Class 4 impact resistant shingles are rated to the UL 2218 steel ball test and many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for them. Ask your carrier what discount applies before you choose a shingle, because the discount can offset a meaningful share of the upgrade cost.
Do I need a permit to replace a roof in the Houston area?
Texas has no single statewide building code enforcement, so permitting is decided city by city and county by county. The City of Houston generally requires a permit for a residential reroof, and requirements in unincorporated Harris County and in surrounding suburbs such as Katy, Tomball and Pearland differ. Confirm in writing who is pulling the permit and who pays for it before work starts.
What should I ask a Texas roofer before signing a contract?
Ask for a certificate of insurance from the carrier, a written scope that names the shingle line and underlayment, the total price rather than just a deductible figure, who pulls the permit, what the manufacturer warranty covers versus the workmanship warranty, and how long the crew will be on site. Get every promise into the contract itself, not into a text message.
What areas does Southwestern Roofing serve?
The company publishes a Greater Houston service area covering Houston, Cypress, Spring, Tomball, Katy, The Woodlands, Pearland, Sugar Land, Missouri City, Richmond, Humble, Hockley, Waller, League City and La Porte.
Does Southwestern Roofing do work other than roofing?
Yes. Alongside roof replacement, installation, repair, maintenance and inspection, its site lists siding replacement including trim, fascia and soffit, gutter and leaf guard installation, window replacement, interior and exterior painting, patios, decks, fencing, room additions and interior remodeling.
What are the company's hours and how do you contact it?
The site lists Monday to Friday 8:30am to 5:00pm and Saturday 9:00am to 1:00pm, closed Sunday, and notes that winter and summer hours may vary. The published phone number is (281) 955-6014 and the email is southwesternroof@yahoo.com. The older southwesternroofing.net address now redirects to southwesternroof.com.
