About
LD Tebben is a commercial roofing and building envelope contractor based in south Austin at 440 Industrial Blvd. PAX Services Group, which publishes a dedicated page for the brand, states the company was founded in Austin in 1977 and runs offices in Austin and Waco. Its work is aimed at institutional, industrial, commercial and multi-family buildings rather than single-family homes.
The business was acquired in March 2023 by Patuxent Roofing & Contracting, the Maryland based contractor that now trades as PAX Services Group. It continues to operate under its own LD Tebben name as a PAX brand, with PAX supplying a dedicated LD Tebben sub-brand logo and location page. PAX lists nine locations across Maryland, Virginia, Texas and Florida, including the CRAM brand in San Antonio, so LD Tebben is one operating company inside a larger multi-state group rather than an independent local firm.
The published service mix covers membrane roofing, metal roof panels, thermal insulation, flashing and trim, waterproofing, restoration and repair, across built-up, modified bitumen, metal, tile and shingle systems. The older ldtebben.com website is still indexed by search engines but no longer serves a valid security certificate, so current public information sits on the PAX Services Group site. Texas has no state roofing licence, so building owners should confirm general liability and workers compensation coverage directly with the contractor before work starts.

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.

Required in Austin Permit office ↗Contractor Registration via Austin Build + Connect (AB+C) - Building and Trade Contractor Services. Registration is required here to pull a roofing permit; we have not confirmed this company's own status, so check it before you sign.

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 LD Tebben licensed by the State of Texas?
No, and no roofer in Texas is. Texas does not issue a state roofing licence. Trust in this market comes from verified insurance, RCAT status, city or county registration where it is required, and the contractor's own track record. Always ask for a certificate of insurance sent directly by the insurer.
Who owns LD Tebben now?
LD Tebben was acquired in March 2023 by Patuxent Roofing & Contracting, a Maryland based commercial roofing company that now operates as PAX Services Group. The Austin business still trades under the LD Tebben name and is listed by PAX as one of its operating locations.
What does RCAT Member mean for this company?
RCAT is the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas. A Member pays dues and takes part in the association. That is not the same as RCAT's separately earned Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL), which requires testing and continuing education. LD Tebben is recorded as a Member.
What kinds of buildings does LD Tebben work on?
Its published markets are institutional, industrial, commercial and multi-family. The company is presented as a commercial and building envelope contractor rather than a residential re-roofer, so a single-family homeowner is not its typical customer.
Where in Texas does the company operate?
PAX lists Texas offices for LD Tebben in Austin and Waco. The Austin address on the RCAT record and the PAX site is 440 Industrial Blvd, Austin, TX 78745, in Travis County.
Does hail matter for commercial roofs in the Austin area?
Yes. Central Texas sits on the edge of the state's hail belt and hail is the single biggest driver of Texas roofing claims. On commercial buildings that usually means inspecting membranes and metal for bruising and punctures after a storm, documenting it, and filing promptly, because insurers apply time limits to claims.
What roof systems are common on Austin commercial buildings?
Low-slope commercial roofs in Central Texas are typically built-up, modified bitumen or single-ply membrane, often with rigid insulation below. Steeper sections may use metal panels, tile or shingles. LD Tebben's published capabilities cover all of these.
Do I need a permit to re-roof a building in Austin?
Texas has no statewide building code administration, so permitting is set city by city and county by county. The City of Austin requires permits for most re-roofing and structural roof work. Ask your contractor in writing who pulls the permit and who schedules the inspection.
How often should a commercial roof be inspected?
Twice a year is the common recommendation, usually in spring and autumn, plus an extra inspection after any significant hail or wind event. Regular documented inspections also help protect manufacturer warranty coverage on membrane systems.
What should a building owner ask before signing a roofing contract in Texas?
Ask for a certificate of insurance sent directly by the insurance agent, a written scope naming the exact system and manufacturer, who holds the manufacturer warranty and what voids it, the separate workmanship warranty length, the permit responsibility, and the payment schedule. Be cautious about large deposits before materials are delivered.
