About
Blue Sky Roofing is a Central Texas roofing company with its head office at 11130 Jollyville Road, Suite 200A, in northwest Austin, Travis County. Its Better Business Bureau profile gives a business start date of December 2006, incorporation in January 2007, BBB accreditation since June 2007 with an A+ rating, and names Chad Robinson as managing member. The published Austin line is (512) 495-9770, and the same BBB profile also carries a San Antonio number, (210) 686-4477.
The company holds GAF Certified status and has its own profile in GAF's contractor directory, which is the place to confirm it rather than a badge on a website. GAF Certified is the entry tier of GAF's contractor programme, below Master Elite, so it is worth asking directly which tier applies to your job and which GAF warranty the company is able to register. Work extends past the roof itself: the BBB profile lists commercial roofing, roof installation, gutters, siding, painting, window replacement, entry and French doors, and exterior cleaning.
Blue Sky Roofing is also registered as a contractor with the City of San Antonio, which lets it pull permits there, and it describes offices in several other Texas markets. For an Austin-area homeowner the relevant story is hail and sun. Central Texas sits in the run of the state that takes damaging spring hail, and the summer that follows brings months of high heat and strong UV that cook asphalt shingles and dry out flashings and pipe boots. Texas issues no state roofing licence, so insurance, city registration and a written workmanship warranty are the checks that count.

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
Where is Blue Sky Roofing actually based?
Northwest Austin. The company's address on both its own contact page and its BBB profile is 11130 Jollyville Road, Suite 200A, Austin, Texas 78759, which is in Travis County. It also appears on the City of San Antonio contractor register, which lets it pull permits in San Antonio, and its BBB profile lists a San Antonio phone number alongside the Austin one.
Is Blue Sky Roofing licensed by the State of Texas?
Texas does not issue a state roofing licence, so nobody in the trade holds one. The meaningful checks are city or county contractor registration where required, current general liability and workers compensation insurance, and voluntary credentials such as a manufacturer certification or RCAT membership.
Is Blue Sky Roofing an RCAT member?
A search of the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas member directory for Blue Sky returned no record, so the company does not appear to be an RCAT member. Membership is voluntary and its absence is not a licensing issue, but it does mean the association directory is not available to you as a cross-check for this company.
What is the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
Member simply means the company pays association dues. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (RRL, CRL or CRRL) is earned separately through examination and continuing education and belongs to a named individual. The two are not equivalent. If a contractor claims to be RCAT licensed, ask which designation and in whose name.
What does GAF Certified mean, and how do I verify it?
GAF Certified is the entry tier of GAF's contractor programme. It requires the contractor to carry liability insurance and hold a licence where the state issues one. Blue Sky Roofing has its own profile in GAF's contractor directory, and that directory is where you should confirm the status rather than relying on a logo on a website. GAF Certified sits below GAF Master Elite, so ask which tier is being offered and which GAF warranty can actually be registered on your roof.
How bad is hail for a roof in the Austin area?
It is the single biggest reason Central Texas roofs get replaced early. Spring storms through the I-35 corridor drop hail large enough to bruise asphalt shingles even when the damage is not visible from the ground. Bruising breaks the mat and the granule bond, so the roof keeps aging after the storm and can start leaking a season or two later.
What does Central Texas heat and UV do to a roof?
It shortens the life of everything flexible. Months of high roof-deck temperature and strong UV drive out the volatile oils in asphalt shingles, so they get brittle and lose granules, while sealants at pipe boots, flashings and vents crack. Plastic pipe boots in particular often fail years before the shingles do, which is why a mid-life inspection is worth more here than the shingle warranty suggests.
Are Class 4 impact-resistant shingles worth it in Travis County?
Usually yes if you plan to stay in the house. Class 4 shingles pass the UL 2218 steel-ball impact test, and many Texas insurers give a standing premium discount for them. Ask your insurer what the discount is on your specific policy first, then have the contractor price a Class 4 option beside the standard shingle and name the exact product on the contract.
Who pulls the roofing permit in Austin?
The contractor should. Texas has no statewide building code, so requirements are set by each city and county, and the City of Austin requires permits for most re-roofing work. Ask for the permit number once it is issued and check it against the city record yourself. A contractor who tells you the job is too small to need one is making a decision that is not theirs to make.
What should I ask before signing a Central Texas roofing contract?
Ask for a certificate of insurance sent to you directly by the insurer or agent, the workmanship warranty term in writing and separate from the manufacturer warranty, whether the crew is employed or subcontracted, the exact shingle product and rating, and how supplement claims to your insurer will be handled. After a big hail event, also ask how long the company has been at its current address, because out-of-state storm crews arrive within days and leave before warranty claims mature.
