About
Legend Exteriors is a family owned roofing and storm restoration company that has operated out of Ellis County since 2011. Gunnar Holt is listed as president and LLC member on the company's BBB profile, with Julie Holt as managing member and Paxton Holt as manager. The company's name and logo honour Slade Russo, a brother of the founding family who has died. This is the company's home base and its original RCAT registration. The RCAT record gives 1102 FM 813 in Palmer, which is also the operating address of Legend Custom Homes, a separate business Gunnar Holt started after Legend Exteriors. The company's own website labels its contact block the Palmer office and gives 213 South State Highway 342, Suite 205 in Red Oak, a few minutes away and still in Ellis County. BBB records that Red Oak address as the headquarters, with an A plus rating and accreditation since 2018. Work covers residential and commercial roofing. Residential includes free inspections, insurance claim consultations, metal roofs and a lifetime workmanship warranty. Commercial covers metal, TPO, PVC, EPDM and coating systems. The company also promotes its Good Contractors List membership, which it says brings complimentary third party mediation and a $10,000 guarantee on quality.

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.
Confirm this listing yourself at web.rcat.net/rcat/search.
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.

We telephoned Jon with Legend Exteriors for a quote on a huge project at my workplace. Prepping and painting over 325 storage doors at Security Self Storage. He headed right over to our Waxahachi location and was eager to help, great attention to detail and knowledgeable with process of job needed. The following day he returned with a few men to walk property and gather more info on our vision for completed job. Pleased to know that the efficiency, eagerness to work, and high quality materials ie; paint is selected from (Sherman Williams) is being provided! Excited to see the before and after!
Over the last 3 years we've had trouble finding contractors that actually do what they say they're gonna do. Gunnar Holt from Legend Exteriors is the best when it comes to customer satisfaction. He bent over backwards to help us out and has done a bang up job putting a new roof on our house and repair to our barns that we're damaged in wind/hail storms. You can trust Legend Exteriors with your construction needs!
Paxton Holt and his project manager Richard McVay with Legend Exteriors LLC did an awesome job on our roof and gutters. They stuck by my husband and I through the entire process, even when the insurance company kept denying claims and were playing hard ball, they came through with incredible results. If you're going through this or you're about to, call these gentlemen. They will do it right the 1st time and give you honest feedback! That in itself was reassuring for me!
Jeremy Lott was fantastic to work with! We had a missing vent cover and needed it replaced. He did a full roof inspection, and even knowing that we have good insurance, did not try to upsell us at all. He provided good information and a quote to replace one vent or all of them with metal ones, as the plastic ones don't hold up well in the Texas heat and storms. We decided to replace them all with metal. The price was very reasonable and the roofer was very meticulous. They ensured the new vents and surrounding shingles matched our roof perfectly. We couldn't be happier! We will definitely use them in the future.
Ronnie. & Paxton were extremely helpful explaining process & moving forward. Start to finish, within 1 week. They took care of all gutters & complete fence restaining. Cannot say enough with our satisfaction & job performance. Roof shingles are way better than previous ones. Absolutely great job! See the roof, gutters, & fence at 319 Choctaw Trl. Mickey
