About
Innovative Construction Services LLC (ICS) is a Midlothian based general contractor that works on both roofing and wider construction projects. The company operates from 4951 Joe Wilson Road in Midlothian, in Ellis County, and its own site gives (817) 672-5272 and info@innovativesvc.com as the contact points. Its about page says the business is owned and managed by Levi and Olivia Hall, and that Levi has spent more than 30 years in construction, starting out on tractors and general construction work with his father before moving into roofing.
On the roofing side, ICS states that it covers all types of roof systems. Its primary work is residential and commercial composition roofing, and it also lists more specialised systems including tile, metal, single ply, and built up roofs, plus coatings on the commercial side. Because it operates as a general contractor rather than a roofing only outfit, the services pages also list gutters, metal and steel fabrication, remodelling and renovations, painting, masonry and concrete, driveways and parking lots, and demolition and cleanup.
GAF lists Innovative Construction Services LLC at the Midlothian address in its own contractor directory at the GAF Certified level, and shows the company under both its residential and its commercial contractor listings. The company describes itself as fully insured and accredited with various manufacturers, though it does not name those manufacturers on its own site. Its own site does not name specific service cities beyond saying it works across Texas, and BBB does not show the business as accredited.
Highlights
Listed as a GAF Certified contractor on GAF's own contractor directory, under both the residential and the commercial contractor listings.
Owner operated by Levi and Olivia Hall, with the company stating more than 30 years of construction experience for Levi.
Works on standard composition roofs as well as tile, metal, single ply and built up systems, so it covers both house and light commercial work.
Operates as a full general contractor, so gutters, painting, masonry, concrete and remodelling are handled by the same company.
Based in Midlothian in Ellis County, inside the North Texas hail belt where storm damage drives most roof replacements.
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.

Innovative Construction was great to work with. Levi helped us to replace a roof and add a covered patio. Great work. His contractors were polite and respectful and worked quickly to complete the job.

Definitely would recommend this company! Clear communication and estimate provided. Levi was so easy to work with- even though we had a small project of replacing 1 fence panel. Thank you for doing such a great job and helping us!

Ics installed a porch on our small apartment building. It make the whole building look like a home and way nicer! Well worth the money! It was a fair price and no hiccups!

I used ICS to replace my roof. I worked with Jeremy Woodruff, he was professional, prompt, courteous and a pleasure to work with. Showed up to meet my insurance adjuster and worked through everything with him, and 4 days later I had a new roof. The replacement was done perfectly in one day-which is important-a neighbor of mine had guys banging on his roof for 3 days. One day is plenty! Roof looks great!

They did a great job repairing our roof a few years back from storm damage and then replaced it after another storm. ICS is the only company we use and recommend.

Frequently asked
Is Innovative Construction Services licensed by the State of Texas?
No roofing company is. Texas does not issue a state roofing contractor licence, so there is no state licence number to look up for any Texas roofer. The things you can actually check are current general liability and workers compensation insurance, the company's standing with trade bodies such as RCAT, and any registration your city requires. Ask for a certificate of insurance sent directly from the insurance agent rather than a copy handed to you by the salesperson.
What does the RCAT status Member mean for this company?
The Roofing Contractors Association of Texas has two separate things that are often confused. Plain membership means a company pays dues and belongs to the association. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is earned separately through RCAT's own testing and requirements. Innovative Construction Services is recorded as a Member, which is association membership rather than the separately earned RCAT contractor credential.
What roofing materials does the company install?
Its services pages list composition asphalt shingles as the primary residential and commercial product, plus metal, tile, slate and synthetic slate on the residential side. For commercial roofs it lists TPO, PVC, EPDM, asphalt and built up bitumen systems, metal, and roof coatings. If you want a specific brand or a specific system, ask which ones the crew installs regularly rather than assuming everything on the list is everyday work.
Does Midlothian require a permit for a roof replacement?
Texas has no statewide building code enforcement, so permitting is handled city by city. Midlothian runs its own building inspection and permit process, and residential re-roofs in most North Texas cities do require a permit. Ask the contractor in writing who pulls the permit and who schedules the final inspection, and make sure the permit is in the roofing company's name rather than yours.
Why do Ellis County roofs get replaced so often?
Ellis County sits at the southern edge of the North Texas hail corridor, and hail is by far the biggest driver of roof replacement in this part of the state. Spring storms can drop stones large enough to bruise asphalt shingles even when the roof looks fine from the ground. A bruised shingle mat can fail years later, which is why insurers and roofers look at granule loss and mat damage rather than obvious holes.
Are Class 4 impact resistant shingles worth it in Midlothian?
For hail exposed areas they usually are. Class 4 is the top rating in the UL 2218 steel ball impact test, and many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for a verified Class 4 roof. The discount varies by carrier, so get the discount confirmed by your insurance agent before you pay the upgrade cost, and keep the product data sheet and the invoice showing the exact shingle installed.
How does a Texas hail insurance claim usually work?
You report the damage to your carrier, an adjuster inspects the roof, and the carrier issues a scope and an estimate based on actual cash value first, with the recoverable depreciation released after the work is finished and invoiced. Texas law prohibits a roofing contractor from acting as a public insurance adjuster on the same claim, so a contractor can meet the adjuster and point out damage but cannot negotiate the claim on your behalf as an adjuster.
Should a roofer offer to cover my deductible?
No, and you should treat the offer as a red flag. Under Texas Insurance Code Chapter 707 it is an offence for a contractor to pay, waive, absorb or rebate an insurance deductible, and the homeowner can be exposed too. A legitimate estimate shows the deductible as your out of pocket amount. Anyone advertising a free roof or no deductible is either breaking the law or padding the invoice.
What should I ask before signing a roofing contract in Texas?
Ask for proof of current general liability and workers compensation insurance sent from the agent, a written scope listing shingle brand, line, colour, underlayment, ventilation and flashing work, the workmanship warranty length in writing, who pulls the permit, how change orders are priced, and whether crews are employees or subcontractors. Also ask whether payment is tied to milestones rather than a large deposit up front.
How can I check this company's public record before hiring?
Its Better Business Bureau file is public and shows the Midlothian address, the ownership details and the complaint history. Note that BBB shows the business as not accredited, which is not a mark against it but does mean BBB has no accreditation review on file. GAF's contractor directory listing confirms the GAF Certified status independently of anything the company says about itself, and the company's Facebook page carries project photos.
