About
North Texas Roofing is a Denton based roofing company working across Denton and the northern side of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Its own About page names Kurt Schmitz as owner and dates the company to 2016, while its BBB file records the business as started on 1 September 2015 and BBB Accredited since 17 April 2017 with an A+ rating, under the principal Mr. Robert Kurt Schmitz. Kurt Schmitz, the contact name on the City of Arlington registered contractor record, is therefore the owner rather than a filing agent.
The company's stated focus is cost effective residential roof replacement rather than large commercial work. Alongside roof replacement and leak repair it offers a set of related exterior restoration services: seamless aluminium gutters, painting and staining, window and solar screens, wood fencing, and siding and chimney restoration. It also assists homeowners with insurance claims and advertises no interest monthly payment plans.
On materials the site describes a full shingle system rather than just the shingles: leak barrier, underlayment, starter strip, ridge cap and attic ventilation, which is the GAF system approach. The company describes itself as a GAF certified contractor. The office is a suite at 207 W Hickory St in central Denton, the address it publishes on its own site and on its BBB file.

BBB Accredited since April 2017 with an A+ rating and around ten years of trading.
Specialises in residential roof replacement rather than spreading across commercial work.
Installs the full shingle system, so leak barrier, underlayment, starter strip, ridge cap and attic ventilation, not just the visible shingles.
Carries related exterior restoration in house: gutters, painting, screens, fencing and siding, which suits whole-property storm repairs.
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
Registered — Arlington Check the register ↗Registered contractor, City of Arlington. Arlington registers roofing companies in its general contractor category; its published dataset carries no registration number and no expiry date, and the dataset itself may lag by some months.. 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.

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 North Texas Roofing licensed by the State of Texas?
No, and neither is any other Texas roofer, because Texas does not issue a state roofing licence. There is no state roofing board. The checks that do mean something are insurance, city contractor registration where required, manufacturer certification, and a BBB file. This company appears on the City of Arlington registered contractor list and is BBB Accredited with an A+ rating.
How should I verify insurance before work starts?
Ask the insurance agency to send you the certificate of insurance directly rather than accepting a copy from the contractor. Confirm general liability and workers compensation, confirm the policy dates cover your job, and ring the agency on the number printed on the certificate. In a state with no roofing licence, a live insurance policy is the real protection if something goes wrong on your roof.
Is North Texas Roofing an RCAT member?
Our search of the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas directory at web.rcat.net did not return a record for this company. The keyword search returned an unrelated McKinney company. So the honest statement is that we could not find it via RCAT search, not that it is unlisted. RCAT membership is voluntary.
What is the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
Membership means the company pays association dues. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is earned separately by examination, sits with a named individual, and comes with its own licence number. They are not interchangeable, and a contractor saying only licensed should be asked to say which of the two is meant.
How old is the company?
Two dates are on record and they differ slightly. The company's own About page says 2016. Its BBB file records the business as started on 1 September 2015 and shows ten years in business. Either way it has been trading in Denton for around a decade, with BBB accreditation since April 2017.
What does hail mean for a Denton County roof?
Denton County sits inside the North Texas hail belt, and spring storms there regularly drop hail large enough to damage asphalt shingles. The damage is frequently invisible from ground level, showing as bruising to the shingle mat that shortens the roof's life rather than causing an immediate leak. If a storm has been through, note the date and have the roof looked at, because insurers tie claims to specific events.
Are Class 4 impact-resistant shingles worth fitting here?
Class 4 shingles pass a standard impact test and tend to hold up better under hail than ordinary shingles. Most Texas insurers offer some premium discount for a Class 4 roof, but the amount varies widely between carriers, so ask yours for the actual figure before deciding. The discount over the roof's life is what determines whether the higher material cost is worth paying.
Do I need a permit to replace a roof in Denton?
There is no statewide Texas building code administration, so permitting is handled by each city. A roof replacement in Denton normally requires a permit from the city building department, and the roofer usually pulls it. Ask which city is issuing the permit, get the permit number, and check that the final inspection has passed before releasing your last payment.
How does the payment plan work?
The company advertises no interest monthly payment plans and accepts Mastercard, Visa, Discover, American Express and PayPal. As with any financing offer, ask for the terms in writing before signing: the length of the plan, what happens if a payment is late, whether the no interest period ends at a set date, and who the lender actually is.
Is this the same company as Roofing & Restoration of North Texas?
No. They are two separate businesses with similar sounding names. North Texas Roofing is the Denton company at 207 W Hickory St, on (940) 367-6761, owned by Kurt Schmitz, at northtexasroofing.com, trading since 2015 or 2016. Roofing & Restoration of North Texas is a different company on (940) 215-4142 at roofingandrestorationnt.com, which dates itself to 2021 and does not name Kurt Schmitz anywhere.
