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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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

Frequently asked
Does Texas require roofing contractors to hold a state license?
No. Texas has no statewide roofing license. Trust comes from proof of insurance, local registration where required, and industry credentials such as RCAT membership rather than a state license.
What is RCAT, and does membership mean a contractor is licensed?
RCAT is the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas. Plain membership (paying dues) is different from RCAT's separately earned Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL). Ask the company directly which one it holds, if either.
Is Pasadena within the Texas windstorm (WPI-8/TWIA) zone?
The upper Texas Gulf Coast, including Harris County communities like Pasadena, sits within areas the Texas Department of Insurance designates for windstorm coverage through the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association (TWIA). Ask your insurer whether your property requires a WPI-8 windstorm certificate after roof work.
What should I ask a roofer before signing a contract?
Ask for proof of general liability insurance and workers compensation, a written scope of work and price, any manufacturer certification claimed, and local references, and get everything in writing before you sign.
Do I need a permit for a roof replacement?
Texas has no statewide building code, so permitting rules are set city by city and county by county. Contact the local building department to confirm whether a permit or inspection is required.
How do I verify a roofer's insurance is active?
Ask for a certificate of insurance naming you as certificate holder, then call the insurance company directly to confirm the policy is currently in force.
My roof was damaged in a storm. What should I do first?
Document the damage with photos, contact your insurance company to open a claim, and get written estimates from more than one contractor before signing an assignment of benefits or repair contract.
What roofing materials hold up best on the Gulf Coast?
Wind and impact rated shingle, metal or membrane systems installed with proper fastening for wind uplift tend to perform best in coastal wind conditions. Ask the contractor which wind rating their installation meets.
Are online reviews a reliable way to check a roofer's reputation?
Google reviews are generally harder to fake than reviews on smaller, unmoderated sites, so check the Google Business Profile review count and pattern of feedback alongside BBB and manufacturer directories.
Does BBB accreditation mean a company is licensed or insured?
No. BBB accreditation is a separate, opted-into program based on BBB's own standards, and it is not proof of state licensing (Texas has none for roofing) or of current insurance. Confirm insurance separately.
