About

Alden Roofing & Renovations, LP is a roofing and construction contractor that operates a North Texas office at 777 S Central Expressway in Richardson, on the Dallas County side of the city, and answers the Richardson line at (972) 231-4323. The partnership is also registered with the Better Business Bureau at a Houston address, so the Richardson office appears to be one of two Texas locations run under the same limited partnership. The work described across the company's directory listings is standard North Texas residential and light commercial roofing: full roof replacements, repairs, re-decking where the deck has failed, flat roof replacement, roof inspections and help documenting insurance claims. Richardson sits in the middle of the DFW hail corridor, so replacement work driven by hail claims is the bulk of what any contractor does in this market. Alden's own website domain, aldenroofing.com, is currently serving a mismatched security certificate and will not load, so the details here come from third-party listings rather than the company's own pages. A homeowner should ask the company directly to confirm current ownership, crews and warranty terms, and should always ask for a current certificate of general liability and workers' compensation insurance before signing.

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.

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.

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

Does Texas license roofing contractors?
No. Texas has no state roofing licence and no state roofing board. Any Texas roofer can legally start work tomorrow, so the checks that matter are proof of insurance, city registration where the city requires it, voluntary RCAT credentials and a verifiable local track record.
What does City of Dallas registration mean?
Dallas City Code Chapter 52 requires roofing contractors doing work in the city to register with the city. It is a registration, not a competency licence, and the city does not publish a licence number or an expiry date for it. It tells you the contractor is on the city's list, not that the city has vetted their workmanship.
What is the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
The Roofing Contractors Association of Texas has two separate things. Membership means a company pays dues and belongs to the association. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (RRL, CRL or CRRL) is earned separately through testing and continuing education. They are not equivalent, and a company that is only a member should never be described as licensed.
Is Alden Roofing & Renovations listed in the RCAT directory?
A search of the RCAT member directory for Alden did not return a record for this company. That means not found via RCAT search. It is not evidence of anything negative, because RCAT membership is voluntary and many established Texas roofers never join.
Why does hail matter so much in Richardson?
Richardson sits inside the North Texas hail corridor, where large spring hail is a near annual event. Hail is the single biggest driver of roof replacement in the Dallas area, and most residential roofs here are replaced through an insurance claim rather than paid for out of pocket.
What is a Class 4 impact-resistant shingle and is it worth it?
Class 4 is the top rating in the UL 2218 steel ball impact test. Class 4 shingles resist hail bruising better than standard shingles and many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for them. Ask your insurer what the discount is before you decide, because the discount and the price difference vary a lot by carrier.
Do I need windstorm certification in Richardson?
No. WPI-8 windstorm certification and TWIA coverage apply only to the 14 first-tier Gulf Coast counties. Richardson is inland North Texas, so no coastal windstorm inspection or certificate is involved.
Does Richardson need a roofing permit?
Texas has no statewide building code adoption for this, so permitting is set city by city. Richardson and Dallas both have their own requirements and inspection processes. Ask the contractor in writing who pulls the permit and who schedules the inspection, and confirm it with the city that will actually issue it.
What insurance should I ask a Texas roofer to show me?
Ask for a current certificate of general liability insurance and a certificate of workers' compensation, sent directly from the insurance agent rather than as a photo of a paper copy. Texas does not require roofers to carry workers' compensation, so it is on you to check.
What should I confirm before signing a roofing contract in Dallas County?
Get the full scope in writing including decking replacement and its price per sheet, the exact shingle line and colour, who supplies the dumpster, the ventilation plan, the manufacturer warranty versus the contractor's workmanship warranty, and the payment schedule. Never pay the full amount up front and never sign a contingency agreement you have not read.
