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.

InsuranceNot verified by us (we hold no certificate for this company — ask them for a current COI before signing)
City/county registration
Required in Bryan Permit office ↗Contractor Registration (Development Services / Building Services, via Citizenserve). Registration is required here to pull a roofing permit; we have not confirmed this company's own status, so check it before you sign.
Status Current in the RCAT directory (no published licence number for this record)
RCAT member ID2200
Licence boardRCAT, Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (Texas issues no state roofing licence; RCAT runs the licensing programme)
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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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 Candor Roofing Solutions actually based?
The company's own website and its RCAT record both give 11688 Long Trussel Road, Bryan, TX 77808, which is in Brazos County next to College Station. The BBB file shows a College Station mailing address in the 77845 ZIP. Both sit in Brazos County.
Does Texas issue a state roofing licence?
No. Texas has no state roofing licence, so there is no government licence number to look up. Trust is built instead on current insurance, association standing such as RCAT, manufacturer certifications, and any local contractor registration that applies.
Is Candor an RCAT Member or an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
It appears in the RCAT member directory as record 2200, which is plain membership. RCAT separately awards a Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) that is earned through testing and experience, and this listing does not show that credential.
What is a CertainTeed Certified ShingleMaster?
It is a manufacturer credential from CertainTeed that requires the contractor's crews to pass CertainTeed training and lets the company register CertainTeed's higher tier system warranties. Ask which specific warranty your roof would qualify for and confirm it gets registered after the job.
How long has the company been operating?
The BBB file records the business as starting on 10 September 2023 and incorporating on 11 September 2023, so it is a young company with a recent, clean accreditation record.
Is hail damage common in the Brazos Valley?
Hail is the dominant roofing story across Central Texas, and Brazos County sees it along with heavy wind driven rain. Ask about impact resistant Class 4 rated shingles, since many Texas insurers offer a premium discount when a Class 4 product is installed.
Does a Bryan or College Station roof need WPI-8 windstorm certification?
No. WPI-8 certificates apply to the 14 first tier Gulf Coast counties served by the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association. Brazos County is inland and is not one of them, so a WPI-8 is not part of a normal roof job here.
Who handles the permit?
Texas has no statewide building code administration. Bryan, College Station and each surrounding jurisdiction set their own permit and inspection rules, so confirm in writing which permits are needed and who pulls them before work starts.
What insurance should I verify?
Ask for a current certificate of general liability insurance and workers compensation coverage sent directly from the insurer or agent rather than handed over by a salesperson. With no state licence in Texas, this is the strongest single check a homeowner can make.
What should I settle before signing?
Pin down the written scope including decking replacement pricing, underlayment, flashing and ventilation, confirm which manufacturer warranty is being registered, confirm permit responsibility, and if the job is an insurance claim, get a plain explanation of your deductible obligation before any paperwork is signed.
