About
DG Roofing & Remodeling is a Temple, Texas roofing and exterior contractor operating from 5106 S General Bruce Dr, Suite 100, with owner Dirk Gerhardt listed as the RCAT contact. The company works the Central Texas I-35 corridor between Waco and Austin, covering Bell, Williamson and Travis counties, and handles both roofing and broader remodeling work including gutters, siding, windows, fencing, painting and concrete.
The company is listed in Owens Corning's own contractor directory as an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, and RCAT's directory records it as a Licensed Roofing Contractor rather than a dues-only member. Its marketing leans on Central Texas hail and storm work, free inspections, insurance claim assistance and financing.
Homeowners should note a conflict on this record. The company's website advertises an A+ BBB Accredited rating, but the Better Business Bureau profile for DG Roofing and Remodeling LLC shows the business is not BBB accredited, carries an F rating, and has an active BBB alert for misuse of the BBB name and logo. Verify that claim directly with the BBB before relying on it. Texas has no state roofing licence, so buyers should confirm general liability and workers compensation coverage in writing and check City of Temple permit requirements 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
Not checked for TempleTexas has no state roofing licence, and city rules differ: some require contractor registration, some run a voluntary registry, some neither. Ask this company and your local permit office.
Confirm this licence yourself at web.rcat.net/rcat/search — search #03-0705 or the company name.
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.

Is DG Roofing & Remodeling licensed by the State of Texas?
No, because Texas does not issue a state roofing licence. What exists instead is the voluntary Licensed Roofing Contractor credential from the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas, and RCAT's directory records DG Roofing and Remodeling LLC under that Licensed credential. Insurance coverage and any city registration are separate items you should confirm yourself.
What is the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
An RCAT Member simply pays association dues. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is earned separately through testing and continuing education requirements. They are not equivalent, and this company appears in RCAT's directory under the Licensed credential.
Does DG Roofing & Remodeling have a website?
Yes. The company operates dgroofstx.com, which lists the Temple office at 5106 S General Bruce Dr, Suite 100 and the phone number (254) 339-8688. Some older directory records for this company carry no website, so the site is the most current source.
Is the company BBB accredited?
The company's website says it is an A+ BBB Accredited Business, but the BBB profile for DG Roofing and Remodeling LLC states the business is not accredited, shows an F rating, and carries an alert for unauthorised use of the BBB name and logo. Check the BBB profile directly before treating the accreditation claim as accurate.
Why does the BBB list this company in Belton and the website list Temple?
The company's own site and its RCAT directory record both give a Temple address at 5106 S General Bruce Dr, Suite 100, while the BBB profile and its Yelp page are filed under Belton. Both towns are in Bell County and only a few miles apart. Ask for the address that will appear on your contract.
Does Temple, Texas require a roofing permit?
Permitting and inspection in Texas are handled city by city because there is no statewide building code enforcement for residential roofing. Confirm with the City of Temple (or Belton, Killeen or Harker Heights, depending on where the work is) whether your reroof needs a permit, and make clear in writing who is pulling it.
Are impact resistant Class 4 shingles worth it in Bell County?
Central Texas sits in the hail belt, and Class 4 impact rated shingles are designed to withstand steel ball impact testing better than standard shingles. Many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for a Class 4 roof. Ask your carrier what discount applies and get the product's UL 2218 Class 4 rating in writing on the proposal.
Does the company help with hail insurance claims?
Yes. The company advertises free inspections, storm restoration and insurance claim assistance. Under Texas law a roofing contractor cannot act as your public insurance adjuster on the same claim, so keep the contractor role and the adjusting role separate and deal with your carrier directly on scope and settlement.
What should a homeowner verify before signing a roofing contract in Texas?
Ask for a current certificate of general liability insurance and workers compensation naming you as certificate holder, confirm whether crews are employees or subcontractors, get the manufacturer warranty tier and the labour warranty length in writing, confirm who pulls the permit, and check that the total price and payment schedule are on the contract rather than tied to an insurance settlement figure.
Does this company need WPI-8 windstorm certification?
No. WPI-8 certificates and TWIA windstorm inspections apply only to the fourteen first tier Gulf Coast counties. Bell County is inland Central Texas, so windstorm certification is not part of a reroof here. Hail resistance and proper deck and underlayment detail matter far more in this market.
