About
The initials in the City of Dallas listing stand for Absolute Professional Roofing Contractors, L.L.C., which trades as Absolute PRC on the domain absoluteprc.com. Roofing is genuinely its line of work: the BBB categorises it under roofing contractors, metal roofing contractors, commercial roofing, flat roofing contractors, tile roofing contractors and roofing consultants, and the company describes itself as "Your Local Experts in Roofing, Repairs, and Storm Restoration". The BBB file records a business start date of July 2004 and incorporation in January 2010, names Kyran Trader as president, and shows an A+ rating with BBB accreditation.
The company works both sides of the market. On the residential side it covers roof replacement, roof repair, gutters, attic ventilation and energy efficiency work, plus storm restoration and full insurance claim handling including wind and hail damage and post storm fence repair. On the commercial side it does roof projects and repairs, roof coatings and membrane systems including TPO, EPDM and modified bitumen. Its stated base is 3314 Wells Drive in Plano, in Collin County, and it lists a long run of DFW cities as its service area including Allen, Carrollton, Dallas, Farmers Branch, Flower Mound, Frisco, Garland, Grapevine, Irving, Keller, Lewisville, McKinney, Murphy, Prosper, Richardson, Rockwall and University Park.
One caution for anyone searching: several unrelated Plano companies use the word Absolute, including Absolute Construction, Inc (which trades as Absolute Commercial Roofing and is a separate RCAT member on a different phone number) and Absolute Roofing & Waterproofing. Absolute PRC is a distinct business, identified here by the number (972) 596-7857 and the absoluteprc.com domain.

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.

RCAT statusNot listed
City/county registration
Registered — Dallas Check the register ↗Contractor Certificate of Registration (Dallas City Code Ch. 52), type Roofing (RO). This company appears on the city's own list of registered contractors. The city publishes no certificate number or expiry date for this programme, so ask to see the registration itself before work starts.
RegionPlano
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
What does the P.R.C. in the company name stand for?
Professional Roofing Contractors. The full registered name is Absolute Professional Roofing Contractors, L.L.C., usually shortened to Absolute PRC. The City of Dallas contractor register carries the abbreviated form.
Is this the same company as Absolute Construction or Absolute Roofing & Waterproofing?
No. Several Plano and North Texas companies use the word Absolute. Absolute Construction, Inc trades as Absolute Commercial Roofing on a different Plano address and phone number, and Absolute Roofing & Waterproofing is another separate business with Austin and Lewisville records. Absolute Professional Roofing Contractors is identified by the absoluteprc.com domain and the number (972) 596-7857.
Is Absolute PRC listed with RCAT?
No record for this company was found via the RCAT directory search. The RCAT search on "Absolute" returns Absolute Construction of Plano and two Absolute Roofing & Waterproofing records, all of which are different businesses. RCAT membership is voluntary, so its absence is not a mark against the company.
Is Absolute PRC licensed by the State of Texas?
Texas does not issue a state roofing licence, so no Texas roofer holds one. The company appears on the City of Dallas registered contractor list, which is the applicable registration for work inside the city, and it holds BBB accreditation with an A+ rating. Verify insurance separately.
Are its GAF and Owens Corning credentials verified?
They are company-stated. Absolute PRC says it is GAF Factory Certified and an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, and its site displays manufacturer logos, but no company profile was found for it in either the GAF Contractor Directory or the Owens Corning Contractor Locator. Ask the company to show you its certificate and its contractor ID number before relying on a manufacturer backed warranty.
What is the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
A Member pays dues to the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is earned separately through testing and experience requirements. They are commonly conflated in advertising, so ask which one is actually held and ask to see it.
Should I fit Class 4 impact resistant shingles in Plano or Frisco?
It is worth pricing. Collin County sits squarely in the North Texas hail belt and Class 4 rated shingles are tested to resist impact far better than standard products. Many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for a Class 4 roof, so ask your carrier what the discount is and how many years it takes to repay the material upcharge.
Does the company handle the insurance claim for me?
It advertises full service claim handling for storm damage, including documenting wind and hail damage and working through the settlement. Be clear that a roofer may inspect, document and price the damage but may not act as your public adjuster or negotiate your claim on your behalf unless separately licensed to do so in Texas.
Do I need a permit for a roof replacement in Plano or Dallas?
Texas has no statewide building code, so it varies by city. Both Plano and Dallas generally require a permit for a roof replacement, and the City of Dallas additionally requires the contractor to be registered under Chapter 52 of the city code. Make the contract state who pulls the permit and confirm the inspection happens.
What should I check before signing a roofing contract in Texas?
Get a certificate of insurance direct from the insurer's agent showing general liability and, if applicable, workers compensation. Get the scope in writing including decking replacement rates and ventilation. Get both warranties, manufacturer and workmanship, with their terms. Confirm your three day right to cancel on insurance related roofing contracts. And walk away from anyone offering to cover your deductible, which is illegal in Texas.
