About
ABC Roofing & Repairs is a long-running San Antonio roofing contractor at 821 Stonewall Street on the city's South Side (78211), reachable at (210) 923-4656. The Better Business Bureau lists it as a sole proprietorship owned by Ildefonso Garcia, with Santos Buentello as office coordinator, and records the business as having started in June 1986. That makes it one of the older continuously operating roofing names in Bexar County.
The company keeps almost no web presence. It has no website and no findable Google Business Profile, and the only first-hand records we could read are its BBB profile and a Yelp listing at the same Stonewall Street address and phone number. BBB gives it an A+ rating, though it is not a BBB Accredited Business, which are two separate things worth keeping straight.
Because the company publishes so little itself, this listing is deliberately thin. We have confirmed identity (phone plus San Antonio street address plus owner name) but we have not found a company-published page stating its service menu, materials, crew size or manufacturer credentials, so those fields are left blank rather than guessed. Texas has no state roofing license, so anyone hiring here should ask for a current certificate of general liability and workers' compensation insurance naming them, and get the scope in writing.

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 ABC Roofing & Repairs licensed by the State of Texas?
No, and no roofer is. Texas does not issue a state roofing license. In San Antonio the relevant paperwork is city home improvement contractor registration plus insurance, so ask for a current certificate of general liability and workers' compensation insurance naming you, and verify it directly with the insurance agent.
Is this company an RCAT member?
We searched the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas member directory at web.rcat.net for ABC Roofing and got no match, so we report it as not found via RCAT search. That is not the same as saying it is not a member. RCAT membership is voluntary and plenty of established Texas roofers never join.
What is the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
They are two separate things. Member means the company pays association dues. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (RRL, CRL or CRRL) is earned separately through RCAT's own exam and experience requirements. A company can be a Member without holding the credential, so ask which one a contractor actually has.
Why does this listing have so few details?
Because the company publishes almost nothing. It has no website and no Google Business Profile we could find, so there is no first-hand page stating its services, materials or warranties. We would rather leave those fields blank than invent them. Call the company directly at the number listed to ask.
What is the main roofing threat in San Antonio?
Hail and heat. Bexar County sits at the southern edge of Texas hail country and takes damaging hail events most springs. On top of that, months of high UV and 100-degree-plus roof deck temperatures dry out asphalt shingles, cook sealant strips and shorten the practical life of a roof well below its printed warranty term.
Do I need windstorm or WPI-8 certification in San Antonio?
No. WPI-8 windstorm certification through TWIA applies to the 14 first-tier Gulf Coast counties. Bexar County is inland and is not one of them. If a contractor tries to sell you windstorm certification for a San Antonio roof, that is a red flag.
Are Class 4 impact-resistant shingles worth it here?
Often yes. Class 4 is the top rating in the UL 2218 steel ball impact test, and most Texas insurers offer a premium discount for a verified Class 4 roof. Ask your carrier what the discount is on your policy, then weigh it against the material upcharge over the years you plan to stay.
Does a roofer need a permit for a reroof in San Antonio?
Texas has no statewide building code, so this is set city by city. San Antonio's Development Services Department requires permits for roofing work, and the contractor should pull it in their own name. If someone asks you to pull the permit yourself, that usually means they cannot.
What should I ask before signing a roofing contract in Bexar County?
Ask for the full legal business name, the certificate of insurance verified with the agent, the exact shingle line and colour, the underlayment and ventilation spec, who pulls the permit, the labour warranty length in writing, and the payment schedule. Never pay the full job up front.
My insurer said my roof has hail damage. What happens next?
Your adjuster writes a scope and the carrier issues an actual cash value payment, with the remaining replacement cost held back until the work is done. Get an independent measurement from the roofer, compare it line by line to the adjuster's scope, and have the roofer submit a supplement for anything genuinely missing. Do not let anyone offer to absorb your deductible, which is illegal in Texas.
