About
Martin Roofing is a commercial and industrial roofing contractor based at 412 S Interstate 35 East Service Road in Red Oak, in Ellis County, just south of Dallas. It also trades as Martin Commercial Roofing, which is the name on its social accounts and its manufacturer directory listing, and it operates a second location at 211 E Freeman St, Suite 103 in Duncanville.
The Better Business Bureau records the business as starting on 18 June 2007, with Dean R. Martin as managing member, and shows it as BBB Accredited since August 2009 with an A+ rating. The company's own site describes 18 plus years serving North Texas and more than three decades of combined crew experience.
The work is weighted towards low slope and flat commercial systems. Martin installs and repairs single ply membranes in TPO, PVC and EPDM, modified bitumen and built up roofs, metal roofing, and roof coatings, and it handles leak detection, waterproofing, roof coping and multi family repair and replacement. Hail and wind damage restoration is a stated service line, which fits a North Texas market where hail is the dominant claim driver.

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.

InsuranceNot verified by us (we hold no certificate for this company — ask them for a current COI before signing)
RCAT statusNot listed
City/county registration
Registered — Dallas Check the register ↗Contractor Certificate of Registration (Dallas City Code Ch. 52), type Roofing (RO). This company appears on the city's own list of registered contractors. The city publishes no certificate number or expiry date for this programme, so ask to see the registration itself before work starts.
RegionRed Oak
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 Martin Roofing licensed by the State of Texas?
There is no such thing. Texas issues no state roofing licence, so nobody in the state holds one. The checks that do mean something are city registration, a current certificate of insurance sent by the insurer, manufacturer credentials and voluntary bodies such as RCAT. Martin Roofing is registered as a roofing contractor with the City of Dallas.
Is Martin Roofing a member of RCAT?
A search of the RCAT directory did not return a record for this company. The one similar name the directory does return is Martin Roofing and Solar LLC of Houston, which is a different, unrelated business. RCAT membership is voluntary.
What is the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
Member means the company pays dues to the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential, shown as CRRL, RRL or CRL, is earned separately by an individual through RCAT testing. They are not interchangeable, so ask which one a company is claiming.
Does Martin Roofing do residential work or only commercial?
The company's site lists a residential roofing page, but the bulk of the site, the branding as Martin Commercial Roofing, and its BBB categories all point to commercial, industrial and multi family work as the core of the business.
What is a single ply roof and why does it come up for flat commercial roofs?
Single ply means a sheet membrane such as TPO, PVC or EPDM mechanically fastened or adhered over insulation. It suits the low slope roofs found on warehouses, retail and multi family buildings. TPO and PVC are usually specified in white for heat reflectance, which matters in Texas summers.
Should I recoat a commercial roof or replace it?
A coating can extend the life of a sound roof and is far cheaper than a tear off, but it only works if the substrate and insulation are dry and the seams are intact. Ask for a moisture survey or core cuts before agreeing to a coating on an older roof.
How does hail affect a flat commercial roof in North Texas?
Hail bruises the membrane and crushes the insulation underneath, and neither shows well from the ground. On modified bitumen and single ply the damage often only turns up under a proper walk survey. Get a post storm inspection documented in writing with photographs and dates.
Do I need a permit for a commercial reroof around Dallas?
Almost certainly, but the rule is local. Texas has no statewide building code enforcement, so Red Oak, Duncanville, Dallas and every other city set their own permit and inspection requirements. Confirm in writing who is pulling the permit.
How should I check a roofer's insurance for a commercial job?
Ask the insurance agent to send the certificate directly to you. Look for general liability at a limit that suits the building value, and workers compensation if crews are employed. If subcontractors are used, ask whether they carry their own cover and whether you are named as additional insured.
What should I ask before signing a commercial roofing contract?
Ask which manufacturer system is being installed and at what warranty length, whether the warranty is a manufacturer NDL warranty or a contractor workmanship warranty, who pulls the permit, what the tear off and disposal terms are, and what the procedure is for change orders once deck damage is uncovered.
