About
Guardian Roof Systems is a Pearland based roofing contractor serving Houston, Katy, Pearland, and surrounding communities. BBB records show the business started in 2007, and the company describes more than 20 years of roofing experience. From its office at 3800 Halik St, Suite 5, it installs and repairs residential and commercial roofs, including asphalt shingle, metal, TPO, and flat roofing systems, and offers storm damage repair for wind, hail, and falling debris damage.
The company holds the CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster credential, a designation CertainTeed says fewer than 5 percent of U.S. roofing contractors earn, and has been BBB accredited since 2010. Its website does not advertise WPI-8 windstorm certification work. Brazoria County sits in TWIA's first tier coastal territory, so owners in designated catastrophe areas who carry or plan to buy TWIA windstorm coverage should confirm windstorm code compliance and certificate arrangements before work begins.

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 licence yourself at web.rcat.net/rcat/search — search #03-0206 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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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.

Guardian roofs provided great options to repair/improve our roof. Unfortunately we decided to renovate our bathroom instead. However, Guardian was able to provide multiple stopgap options until we would be able to replace our whole roof. They were responsive and knowledgeable about their craft. Wonderful to work with.

Raymond and the crew did an amazing job! Raymond is excellent to work with. I worked with him on a roof replacement project for my house. He walked me thru the entire process ahead of time and answered all of my questions and concerns. On the day of the project, the crew arrived on time and finished the job the same day as planned. The customer service was top notch from the entire team and I will definitely recommend Raymond and Guardian Roofing to my friends and colleagues.

Now, let me begin by acknowledging the incredible process I went through to get my new roof. I received my quote promptly and had the roof installed within a week. It was an amazing experience, and the price was great. To top it off, the wonderful salesperson, Sarah, made the entire process even more enjoyable. My roof looks fantastic! Thank you so much! I’ve definitely sent many referrals.

Frequently asked
Is Guardian Roof Systems licensed by the State of Texas?
Texas has no state roofing license. Guardian Roof Systems holds the voluntary RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor credential, which its website references. That designation is separately earned through the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas and requires an exam and proof of insurance.
Does Pearland need windstorm (WPI-8) certification?
Pearland is in Brazoria County, one of TWIA's 14 first tier coastal counties. Properties in the designated catastrophe area that carry or want TWIA windstorm coverage generally need a WPI-8 or WPI-8-E certificate confirming roof work meets the windstorm building code. Whether your specific address falls in the designated area depends on TWIA's maps, so check before re-roofing.
Who issues the WPI-8 certificate, the roofer?
No. The roofer builds to the windstorm specification, but the certificate itself is issued through the Texas Department of Insurance or by a Texas licensed professional engineer who inspects the work.
Does Guardian Roof Systems advertise windstorm certified work?
Its website does not mention WPI-8, TWIA, or windstorm certification. It does offer storm damage repair for wind and hail. If you need a windstorm certificate for TWIA coverage, confirm the company's process for engineer inspections before signing.
What services does Guardian Roof Systems offer?
Residential and commercial roofing, flat roofing installation, asphalt shingle and metal roofing, and storm damage roof repair across Pearland, Houston, Katy, and surrounding areas.
What is a CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster?
It is CertainTeed's top residential credential, which the manufacturer says fewer than 5 percent of U.S. roofing contractors hold. It requires trained installers and allows the contractor to offer CertainTeed's highest warranty tiers. Ask which warranty applies to your shingle choice.
How long has Guardian Roof Systems been in business?
BBB records show the business started in 2007 and it has been BBB accredited since April 2010. The company describes more than 20 years of roofing experience.
Do I need a permit to re-roof in Pearland or Houston?
Texas permitting is handled city by city. Pearland and Houston each have their own permitting requirements for roof work, and windstorm compliance can also apply in coastal Brazoria County. A local contractor should handle permits as part of the project.
Will insurance cover my roof after a Gulf Coast storm?
It depends on the policy. Hail and wind damage may fall under homeowners insurance inland, while wind losses in TWIA designated coastal areas often require a separate TWIA windstorm policy. Document damage quickly and compare the roofer's written scope with the adjuster's estimate.
What should I confirm before signing a roofing contract?
A current certificate of liability insurance, the exact materials and wind rating specified, written warranty terms, who arranges any windstorm inspection your insurer requires, and the payment schedule. Avoid large upfront payments.
