About
Chesapeake Roofing and Restoration is a San Antonio roofing contractor serving San Antonio, Boerne, Kerrville and the surrounding Hill Country. Its own About page says the company was founded by a group of roofing professionals who had seen homeowners hurt by poor workmanship and misleading estimates, and it sets out transparency, reliability and craftsmanship as the principles it was built on. No founding year is stated anywhere on the company's own pages.
The company works in two main systems. It installs and repairs asphalt shingle roofs, and it installs standing seam metal roofs, which its metal roofing page presents as a 40 plus year, fire-resistant and hail-resistant option. It also fits seamless metal rain gutters and handles storm-damaged roof restoration, from small leaks and missing shingles through to full replacement. It describes its replacement work down to the underlayment and flashing detail and refers to workmanship warranties without publishing the terms.
The business trades online as Chesapeake Roofing TX and is reachable on (210) 728-2685 and at office@chesapeakeroofingtx.com. Its current address is 7550 IH-10 Suite 1450, San Antonio, and an earlier address on Cregg Mill Drive in northwest San Antonio still appears on its Yelp and Yahoo Local listings. No manufacturer certifications are claimed on its own website.

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.
Chesapeake, with the final e. The City of San Antonio register records it as CHESAPEAK, which is a register typo. The company spells its own name Chesapeake Roofing and Restoration on its website, its Facebook page, its Yelp listing and its Texas entity filing, and its domain is chesapeakeroofingtx.com.
Does Texas issue a state roofing licence?
No. There is no Texas state roofing licence, so no San Antonio roofer can be state licensed for roofing. Assess a contractor on insurance, on voluntary industry credentials, and on the registration the City of San Antonio requires for residential home improvement work.
What is the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
They are not the same. Membership of the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas means a company pays dues and belongs. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is earned separately through RCAT's testing and continuing education. Plenty of members do not hold it.
Is Chesapeake Roofing and Restoration in the RCAT directory?
A search of RCAT's member directory, under both the correct spelling and the register's Chesapeak spelling, returned no record. That is not found via RCAT search. RCAT membership is voluntary and its absence says nothing about competence.
Shingle or standing seam metal for a San Antonio house?
This company installs both. Metal costs more up front and its own page cites a 40 plus year service life with good hail and fire performance. Architectural shingles cost less and are easier to repair section by section. Ask for both quoted on the same scope, and ask what each does to your insurance premium.
Should I ask about impact-resistant shingles?
Yes. Bexar County gets damaging hail, and Class 4 impact-resistant shingles are rated against a steel-ball impact test. Many Texas insurers give a premium credit for them. Check the credit with your carrier first, then have the roofer price the Class 4 option as a separate line.
How does a hail or storm claim work in Texas?
The roofer inspects and documents damage, you file with your insurer, and the insurer's adjuster inspects. Coverage is the insurer's decision, not the contractor's. A contractor offering to waive, absorb or rebate your deductible is not operating lawfully in Texas.
Do I need a permit for a re-roof in San Antonio?
Texas has no statewide building code, so this is set locally. San Antonio permits and inspects roofing work through its Development Services Department, and residential home improvement contractors register with the city. Confirm in writing who is pulling the permit.
Why do two different addresses show up for this company?
Its own site lists 7550 IH-10 Suite 1450 as the current office, while directory listings including Yelp and Yahoo Local still carry an earlier Cregg Mill Drive address in northwest San Antonio. Directory records lag behind moves. Use the number and address on the company's own site.
What should I check before signing?
Ask the insurer to send general liability and workers compensation certificates directly. Get a written scope naming the shingle line or metal panel profile and the underlayment. Get the workmanship warranty terms in writing, since the site mentions warranties without stating the length. Confirm the permit, the payment schedule, and whether crews are employed or subcontracted.
