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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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 this the same company as Starr Roofing & Exteriors in Allen, Texas?
No. They are two unrelated businesses that happen to share the Starr name. Starr Roofing & Gutters is Starr Companies LLC of Round Mountain in the Hill Country, run by the Reed family, at starrcompaniesllc.com. Starr Roofing & Exteriors is a separate North Texas company in Allen, Collin County, at starrexteriors.com, whose RCAT record names Ron Starr. Different owners, different counties, different websites and different phone numbers.
Where is Starr Roofing & Gutters actually based, given this is a San Antonio registration?
The company's own website lists one office, at 12106 US Highway 281 N in Round Mountain, which is in Blanco County in the Hill Country. San Antonio appears on its own service area list rather than as an office location, so treat the San Antonio registration as coverage of the city from the Round Mountain base rather than evidence of a staffed San Antonio branch.
Does Texas issue a state roofing licence?
No. Texas has no statewide roofing licence, so no Texas roofer can honestly claim to be state licensed for roofing. Meaningful checks are active general liability and workers compensation insurance, the local city or county contractor registration, RCAT status, and manufacturer certification.
What is the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
RCAT membership means paid membership of the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas. The RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is earned separately through testing and experience requirements. They are not equivalent and should never be described as if they were.
Is Starr Roofing & Gutters listed in the RCAT directory?
We searched RCAT directly and found no record for Starr Roofing & Gutters of Round Mountain or for Starr Companies LLC. The only Starr record in RCAT is the separate Allen, Texas company, Starr Roofing at starrexteriors.com, listed as a member since 2019. That record belongs to a different business and should not be read as applying here.
What does GAF Certified mean, and is it the same as GAF Master Elite?
No. GAF runs tiers, and GAF Certified is the entry credential while Master Elite is the top tier with tighter requirements. This company's own About page uses the wording GAF Certified Contractor, and it does have its own listing in the GAF contractor locator. Some third party directory listings describe it as Master Elite. Ask the company to confirm its current tier in writing and check the GAF contractor locator yourself before relying on any enhanced warranty.
Why does hail dominate roofing in this part of Texas?
The Hill Country and the corridor down into Bexar County sit in the reach of the Texas hail belt. Spring storms bring stones big enough to bruise asphalt shingles, dent metal panels and mark soft metals such as gutters, vent caps and flashing. Hail claims, rather than simple age, end a large share of roofs here.
Are Class 4 impact resistant shingles worth paying for around San Antonio and the Hill Country?
Often yes. Class 4 is the top rating in the UL 2218 impact test and many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for a Class 4 roof. Ask your carrier what the annual credit is worth, then ask the roofer to quote the standard and Class 4 options separately so you can see the payback period.
How do permits work if the job is in San Antonio but the roofer is based in Blanco County?
Texas has no statewide building code, so permitting follows the jurisdiction where the house sits, not where the contractor sits. A San Antonio job runs through the City of San Antonio development services process regardless of where the company is based. Ask the contractor to confirm in writing that they will pull the San Antonio permit themselves.
What should I ask before signing with any Texas roofer?
Ask for the insurance agent name and policy numbers so you can verify coverage directly with the agency, ask who pulls the permit, ask whether the crew is employed or subcontracted, ask for the workmanship warranty term in writing separate from the manufacturer warranty, and ask for a total price that treats your deductible honestly. Offers to absorb or waive your deductible are not lawful in Texas.
