About
Tux Roofing LLC is based at 30310 FM 306 Ste 204, Spring Branch, TX 78070, which is in Comal County, north of San Antonio between Canyon Lake and the city. Darrell Barker is the founder, and the Better Business Bureau records the business as started on 27 December 2023 with a BBB file opened in July 2024 and an A rating, though it is not a BBB Accredited Business. Its published phone numbers are (830) 387-0302 and (210) 920-5570, the San Antonio number being the one carried on the city's contractor register.
The company positions itself on trust rather than scale, describing itself as the most trustworthy roofing company in San Antonio and saying the founder started it to address a gap in trustworthiness in the roofing trade. Services listed are roof repair, roof replacement, roof inspections, hail storm roof repair, metal roofing and gutters. Coverage is San Antonio and surrounding areas, with Spring Branch, Boerne and Bulverde named, which is a Hill Country and north-metro footprint rather than a city-centre one.
Comal County is inland, so there is no windstorm certification requirement and no WPI-8 in play. What matters on a roof here is hail, which drives the insurance claims, and the long Texas summer of heat and UV that dries and curls asphalt shingles year after year. The Spring Branch and Canyon Lake area also carries heavy tree cover, so debris load, overhanging limbs and blocked valleys are ordinary maintenance items rather than storm damage. The company's own site is fully JavaScript-rendered and would not return content to us, so the detail here comes from its BBB profile and directory listings rather than from its own pages.

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 Tux Roofing in Bexar County or Comal County?
Comal County. Its address is 30310 FM 306 Ste 204, Spring Branch, TX 78070, and ZIP 78070 sits in Comal County, north of San Antonio. The company markets to San Antonio and carries a 210 number, (210) 920-5570, alongside its Hill Country 830 number, but the base of operations is Comal County.
Does the coastal windstorm certificate apply to a roof in Spring Branch?
No. WPI-8 certification and TWIA windstorm cover apply to the first-tier Gulf Coast counties, and Comal County is nowhere near them. If a contractor in the Spring Branch or Canyon Lake area starts talking about windstorm certification on your roof, that is a sign they are reciting coastal boilerplate rather than knowing this market.
Does Texas license roofing contractors?
No. There is no state roofing licence in Texas, so no Comal County or San Antonio roofer holds one. What you can verify is a current general liability certificate and workers compensation cover, sent to you directly by the insurer or agent, plus city registration where the city requires it and any voluntary trade or manufacturer credentials.
Is Tux Roofing an RCAT member?
Not found via RCAT search. RCAT is the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas, a voluntary trade association. Its plain membership, which is dues-based, is separate from its earned Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL). Most Texas roofers are not RCAT members, so this is a neutral finding.
Is it BBB accredited?
No. Its BBB profile shows an A rating with a file opened in July 2024, but it is expressly not a BBB Accredited Business. A rating and accreditation are different things: the rating reflects complaint history and responsiveness, while accreditation is a paid programme with additional standards. An A rating without accreditation is a normal position for a young company.
How new is the company?
BBB records the business as started on 27 December 2023, so roughly two years of trading as this entity. With any young roofing company, ask three things: how long the workmanship warranty runs and who honours it if the company closes, whether the crews are employees or subcontractors, and for two local references from work completed in the last year.
Which two phone numbers are real?
Both. Its BBB profile lists (830) 387-0302 and (210) 920-5570. The 830 line is the Hill Country number, and the 210 line is the San Antonio number that appears on the City of San Antonio contractor register. Either reaches the same business.
What actually wears out a roof in the Spring Branch and Canyon Lake area?
Three things. Hail, which is what generates insurance claims. Sustained summer heat and UV, which dry the asphalt mat, curl shingle edges and break down sealant strips over years. And tree cover, which is heavy in this part of Comal County, dropping debris that clogs valleys and gutters and holds moisture against the roof. Ask for the valleys and gutters to be cleared as part of any inspection.
Are Class 4 impact-resistant shingles a good idea in Comal County?
Usually. Class 4 means the shingle passed the UL 2218 steel-ball impact test, and most Texas homeowner policies discount the premium for a Class 4 roof. Comal County gets meaningful hail. Ask your own carrier what the discount is on your policy, then have the shingle brand and line written into the contract so the rating is documented.
Who pulls the permit for a reroof out here?
It depends on where the house sits. Texas has no statewide building code, so permitting and inspection are handled city by city and county by county. A Spring Branch address may fall under Comal County rather than a city, and the rules differ inside San Antonio city limits. Ask your contractor to confirm in writing which authority the job is permitted through and to pull it under their own registration.
