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
Required in Amarillo Permit office ↗Roofing Contractor Registration. Registration is required here to pull a roofing permit; we have not confirmed this company's own status, so check it before you sign.
Status Current in the RCAT directory (no published licence number for this record)
RCAT member ID633 (member since 2017)
Licence boardRCAT, Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (Texas issues no state roofing licence; RCAT runs the licensing programme)
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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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
Is Kelley Roofing licensed by the State of Texas?
No Texas roofing company is, because Texas does not issue a state roofing licence. The real checks are current general liability and workers' compensation insurance, voluntary industry credentials such as RCAT and regional association membership, and city registration where the local jurisdiction requires it. Ask for a certificate of insurance sent directly from the insurer or agent.
What does the RCAT status on this listing mean?
The Roofing Contractors Association of Texas has two distinct things. Plain membership means the company pays dues and belongs to the association. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is separately earned. This company is carried as a Member. That is real association standing, but it is not the earned Licensed credential and should not be read as one.
How bad is hail in the Texas Panhandle?
The Panhandle sits in one of the most hail prone parts of the state, with spring and early summer storms regularly producing hail alongside high straight line winds. Potter and the surrounding counties see repeated hail events, which is why impact resistant shingle options, wind rated installation details and prompt post storm inspections matter here.
Are Class 4 impact resistant shingles worth it in Amarillo?
In a repeat hail area they are usually worth pricing. 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. Ask your carrier what the discount is worth on your policy first, then ask the contractor for the product's Class 4 certificate in writing.
What is the difference between GAF Certified and GAF Master Elite?
They are different tiers of the same manufacturer programme. GAF Certified is the entry level, requiring proof of insurance, licensing where applicable and a track record, and it unlocks warranties such as System Plus. Master Elite is the higher tier with additional requirements and stronger warranty options. Both are real, and you can confirm either on GAF's own contractor directory.
What roofing systems suit a commercial building in the Panhandle?
Low slope commercial roofs in this region are commonly single ply membranes such as TPO or EPDM, or metal. TPO is a heat welded membrane with good reflectivity, EPDM is a rubber membrane with a long track record, and metal handles wind well when detailed correctly. The right choice depends on slope, deck type, drainage and how the building is used, so ask for the reasoning in writing.
Can a Texas roofer pay or waive my insurance deductible?
No. Texas law makes it an offence for a contractor to pay, waive, rebate or absorb an insurance deductible on a property insurance claim. You must pay your deductible. Advertising for a free roof or an offer to cover the deductible is a warning sign rather than a saving, and it exposes the homeowner as well as the contractor.
Do I need a permit to replace a roof in Amarillo?
Texas does not administer a single statewide building code, so permitting and inspection are handled city by city and county by county. Amarillo and the surrounding Panhandle jurisdictions each set their own rules. Confirm with the local building department before work starts, and make sure the contract states clearly who pulls the permit and who pays the fee.
What should I ask a Panhandle roofer before signing?
Ask for the legal entity name on the contract, a certificate of insurance sent directly from the insurer, the manufacturer certification checked on the manufacturer's own directory, a written scope covering decking, underlayment, flashing, fasteners and ventilation, wind rating details for the product chosen, who pulls the permit, and the workmanship warranty term separate from the manufacturer warranty.
Should I use a local roofer or a storm chaser after a hail event?
Local matters most when the warranty is called on years later. A company with a fixed local address, a long BBB record and regional association membership can be found again. Out of area crews that appear after a storm often cannot. Check how long the company has traded, whether the address is a real premises, and whether the warranty is backed by the manufacturer as well as the installer.
