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.

RCAT statusNot listed
City/county registration
Registered — Richardson Check the register ↗Registered contractor, City of Richardson. Richardson requires every contractor to register before a permit is issued; registration costs 100 dollars and the certificate is valid for one year. Roofing companies appear in the register under its general building category, so the register confirms the company is permitted to work in Richardson but does not itself certify roofing competence.. 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.
BBB ratingA+ rating Verify on BBB ↗(rated by BBB but not a BBB Accredited Business; accreditation is optional and paid for, so not holding it is not a mark against a company)

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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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.

Texas does not issue a statewide roofing license, so insurance is the check that matters most. We confirm Collins Roofing and Restoration carries general liability insurance before it appears here. Always ask for a current certificate of insurance (COI) before signing a contract.
How can I verify Collins Roofing and Restoration's insurance myself?
Ask Collins Roofing and Restoration directly for a certificate of insurance (COI) naming you or your project, and confirm it's current with their insurance carrier. If Collins Roofing and Restoration claims RCAT status, you can also search their name on RCAT's contractor directory and check the "RCAT Licensed Contractor" box to see whether that means membership or the separately-earned license.

What's the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Contractor?
They are not the same thing. RCAT Membership just means the company pays dues to the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas. RCAT Licensed is a separately-earned credential: the individual must have run a Texas-domiciled roofing company for at least two years, carry substantial liability insurance and workers' comp, and pass a business and roofing exam. Collins Roofing and Restoration's status with RCAT is not listed here; ask them directly.

How long does a roof last in Texas?
Texas sun, heat, and storms shorten roof life. Asphalt shingle roofs typically last around 15 to 25 years, while tile and metal roofs can last 40 years or more with maintenance. Age and condition are the biggest factors in a repair versus replace decision.

What is a High Velocity Hurricane Zone, and does it apply to me?
The High Velocity Hurricane Zone, or HVHZ, covers Miami-Dade and Broward counties in Florida, where roofs must meet stricter wind and product-approval standards. Texas has no HVHZ designation, but Gulf Coast wind codes are demanding, so ask about wind-rated materials for your roof.
How much does a new roof cost in Texas?
Roof cost varies widely by size, pitch, material, and whether it is a repair or a full replacement. Shingle is usually the most affordable, with tile and metal costing more. The best way to budget is to compare a few itemized quotes, so request a free quote to see real numbers for your roof.

Collins Roofing and Restoration is listed with the insurance status shown above.
Why choose an insurance-verified roofer?
