About
SunTex Roofing & Reconstruction is a roofing and exterior reconstruction company with a Temple office serving Bell County and the wider Central Texas corridor, alongside a North Texas operation. The Temple Chamber of Commerce member directory lists the company at 2400 S. 57th Street, Temple, TX 76504 under woman owned roofing contractors, with Leanne Tolbert as the primary contact, and the RCAT contractor directory also records the company under Temple. Its corporate and mailing address is 5700 Tennyson Pkwy, Suite 300, Plano, TX 75024. The Better Business Bureau shows the business incorporated on 9 May 2018, trading from 18 December 2018, BBB Accredited with an A+ rating since 28 March 2022, and recorded under the alternate name 4 Edgar Enterprises, Inc. The company describes itself as 100 percent women owned and operated.
Around Temple, Belton, Killeen and Harker Heights the roofing problem is Central Texas hail and wind driven thunderstorms rather than coastal weather, so the company leans on impact resistant roofing and storm restoration. Its Belton and Temple pages promote Class 4 impact rated roofing for hail resistance and the insurance premium discounts many Texas carriers offer for it, and state a 10 year workmanship warranty on residential roofing plus HAAG certified inspections. Bell County also gets long stretches of extreme summer heat, which ages asphalt shingles and stresses ventilation, so attic ventilation and decking condition are worth discussing at inspection.
Services go beyond roofs. The company lists residential roof repair and replacement, commercial and multifamily roofing, solar panel installation as well as detach and reset for existing panels during a reroof, gutters, fencing, interior and exterior painting, HOA services and seasonal Christmas lighting. Materials cover asphalt shingles, metal, tile and slate. Its published Texas coverage runs from Temple, Belton, Killeen, Harker Heights, Waco, Georgetown, Round Rock, Pflugerville, Liberty Hill, Cedar Park and Austin in Central Texas up through Dallas, Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Allen, Prosper, Wylie, Garland, Lewisville, Denton and Colleyville in the north.

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
Is a roofing company licensed by the State of Texas?
No. Texas issues no state roofing licence, so nobody roofing in Temple or anywhere else in Texas is state licensed for roofing. The checks that matter are general liability and workers compensation certificates sent directly from the insurer, RCAT standing, and whether your city requires contractor registration.
What does the RCAT entry for a company mean?
The Roofing Contractors Association of Texas records two distinct things. Plain membership means the company pays dues and belongs to the association. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is separately earned and involves testing and experience requirements. They are not the same, so read the company's RCAT directory entry rather than assuming one implies the other.
What kind of storm damage should I expect in Bell County?
Central Texas gets severe thunderstorms with large hail and straight line winds, mostly in spring and early summer, and Bell County sits on the southern end of the hail belt that runs up through Waco and into North Texas. Hail bruising and wind lifted or creased shingles are the common findings. Roofs here also cook through long triple digit summers, which ages shingles and dries out sealant.
Are Class 4 impact resistant shingles worth it in Temple or Belton?
They are usually worth pricing. Class 4 is the top rating in the UL 2218 steel ball impact test, and many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for a verified Class 4 roof, which offsets some of the higher material cost over the roof's life. They resist hail bruising better but they are not hail proof. Ask your carrier what discount applies and get the product certificate for your file.
Do I need a permit to replace a roof in Temple?
Texas has no statewide building code enforcement, so permitting is set locally. The City of Temple, the City of Belton, Killeen and Harker Heights each run their own permit and inspection requirements for reroofing, and homes outside city limits in unincorporated Bell County follow different rules again. Ask your contractor who pulls the permit and to hand you the final inspection record.
How does attic ventilation affect a roof in Central Texas heat?
Badly ventilated attics run extremely hot through a Central Texas summer, which bakes shingles from underneath, shortens their service life and can void parts of a manufacturer warranty. A proper reroof balances intake at the eaves with exhaust at the ridge. Ask the contractor to show you the intake and exhaust calculation, not just to add a couple of vents.
Can a contractor cover my insurance deductible after a hail storm?
No. Texas law prohibits a contractor from paying, rebating, waiving or absorbing your insurance deductible, and requires written notice that you are responsible for it. Anyone offering to make the deductible go away is breaking the law, and it says a lot about how the rest of the job will be run.
Who decides how much my hail claim pays?
Your insurer does. A roofing contractor can meet the adjuster, document damage and supply a scope and photographs, but it cannot negotiate your claim unless separately licensed as a public adjuster in Texas, and the same firm cannot legally act as both your contractor and your public adjuster on the same claim.
What happens to my solar panels when the roof is replaced?
They have to come off and go back on, which the trade calls detach and reset. This needs coordination between the roofer and someone qualified to disconnect and reconnect the electrical side, plus proper flashing of the mounting penetrations when the panels are refitted. Confirm in writing who is responsible if a panel or inverter is damaged, and whether the solar system warranty survives the work.
What should I ask before signing a roofing contract in Central Texas?
Get the insurance certificate directly from the insurer, confirm the legal entity name on the contract matches it, pin down the exact shingle line, colour and impact rating with the manufacturer warranty terms, ask who pulls the permit, ask whether crews are employees or subcontractors, get the workmanship warranty term in writing, and refuse any contract where the price is left as whatever the insurance pays.
