About
This is the Gainesville office of Jimco Roofing, the Cooke County arm of a family owned North Texas contractor that now trades publicly as Jimco Construction LLC. The office has its own street address on South Wine Street in Gainesville and its own 940 area code phone line, separate from the company's Mansfield office in Johnson County.
The Better Business Bureau keeps a distinct file for Jimco Roofing, LLC at the Gainesville address. That file shows an A plus rating, gives a business start date of 1992 with local operation beginning in 1997, and lists jimco-construction.com as the company website. Note that the Gainesville file is rated but is not a BBB Accredited Business, unlike the company's Mansfield file.
The company's public site states it has served North Texas since 1981 and covers roofing alongside remodeling, additions and storm remediation for residential and commercial customers. No manufacturer certification such as GAF, Owens Corning or CertainTeed is published on the site, so none is claimed here. Cooke County sits in the North Texas hail belt, so it is worth asking about impact resistant Class 4 shingles and how hail damage gets documented for an insurance claim.

Roofing combined with remodeling, additions and storm remediation under one contractor

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.

I had Jimco Roofing install a high-density foam roof with an elastomeric coating on my mom's investment property in Lake Bridgeport, Texas, several years ago. The results were phenomenal! Not only was my mom extremely pleased with their work, but the new roof also significantly increased the R-value of the property, improving energy efficiency and lowering electricity costs.
Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with the Jimco team in a professional capacity and am proud to be part of such an outstanding group. Their expertise and dedication to quality continue to impress me. I wholeheartedly support and highly recommend Jimco Roofing for all roofing repair and restoration needs!

Frequently asked
Does Jimco Roofing hold a Texas state roofing licence?
No, and no Texas roofer does. Texas does not issue a state roofing licence at all. In place of one, ask for current general liability and workers compensation certificates sent directly by the insurer, check trade association standing such as RCAT, and confirm any registration the city or county requires for the job.
What does RCAT Member status mean here?
RCAT is the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas. Member means the company joins and pays dues. RCAT separately awards an earned Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) to individuals who complete its programme. Membership and that credential are not interchangeable, and Member status by itself does not mean anyone at the company holds it.
Is the Gainesville office a real office or just a mailing address?
It is a real second office. It has its own street address on South Wine Street, its own 940 area code phone and fax lines, its own BBB business file, and its own RCAT contractor record with a different named contact from the Mansfield record. BBB describes the Mansfield site as the company headquarters.
Is this the same company as Jimco Construction?
Yes. The jimcoroofing.com domain redirects to jimco-construction.com, and the BBB file for Jimco Roofing, LLC in Gainesville lists jimco-construction.com as the company website. The roofing brand was folded into a broader construction brand.
Is the Gainesville office BBB accredited?
No. The Gainesville BBB file carries an A+ rating but states the business is not a BBB Accredited Business. The company's separate Mansfield file does show accreditation dating to 2007. Rating and accreditation are different things, so check the profile that matches the office you are hiring.
Does Jimco install impact resistant Class 4 shingles?
The company does not publish a shingle product list, so ask directly. Class 4 impact rated shingles are worth raising anywhere in North Texas, including Cooke County, because many Texas carriers offer a premium discount for them and hail is the region's dominant claim driver.
How are hail and wind claims handled?
The company markets storm and disaster remediation work, which usually involves documenting damage for an adjuster. Get in writing who communicates with the carrier, who pays the deductible (Texas law does not permit a contractor to absorb it), and what happens if the carrier approves less than the contract price.
Who issues the roofing permit in Gainesville?
Texas has no statewide residential code enforcement, so this is decided locally. Work inside Gainesville city limits goes through the City of Gainesville, while addresses in unincorporated Cooke County follow county rules instead. Confirm which applies to your address, and confirm in writing that the contractor pulls the permit rather than the homeowner.
How long has the company worked in the Gainesville area?
The BBB file for the Gainesville entity gives a business start date of 1992 and notes local operation beginning in 1997. The company's own site claims service to North Texas since 1981. Those dates come from different sources and do not fully agree, so treat the founding year as approximate.
What should a homeowner ask before signing a roofing contract in Texas?
Ask for insurance certificates emailed straight from the agent, a written scope naming shingle brand, line, colour, underlayment, flashing and ventilation, the manufacturer warranty and the workmanship warranty spelled out separately, a total price with no blank spaces, and confirmation of your right to cancel an insurance funded contract if the carrier denies the claim.
