About
Perkins Roofing Company is a Beaumont commercial and industrial roofing contractor with a family history tracing back to the 1940s through Beaumont Building Materials, becoming a Texas corporation in 1960. Its BBB profile lists 1961 as the year the business started and shows BBB accreditation dating to 1970 with an A+ rating; David Perkins currently leads the company as president.
The company's BBB profile describes its services as roof maintenance, roof inspections, windstorm certificates and emergency response, focused on commercial and industrial roofs across Southeast Texas.
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 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 Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly.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
Does Texas issue a state roofing license?
No. Texas has no statewide roofing license, so contractors are not required to hold a state-issued roofing credential. Trust is instead based on verified insurance, business registration, and standing with groups such as the BBB.
Is Perkins Roofing a member of the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (RCAT)?
A search of the RCAT member directory did not return a listing for Perkins Roofing as of this review. That does not necessarily mean the company has never applied. Homeowners can check current RCAT status directly at rcat.net before hiring.
How can I verify Perkins Roofing is insured?
Texas does not centrally publish contractor insurance status. Ask Perkins Roofing directly for a current certificate of general liability insurance and confirm the policy is active by calling the insurer listed.
Do impact-resistant (Class 4) shingles make sense in Jefferson County?
Jefferson County sits in Gulf Coast windstorm territory (WPI-8) and also sees hail. Class 4 impact-resistant shingles can reduce storm damage and sometimes qualify for an insurance discount. Ask Perkins Roofing whether Class 4 shingles fit your project.
Does Perkins Roofing provide WPI-8 / TWIA windstorm certificates?
Perkins Roofing's BBB profile lists windstorm certificates among its services. These document that a roof meets Texas Department of Insurance windstorm building code requirements in WPI-8 designated coastal counties such as Jefferson County. Confirm current eligibility and pricing directly with Perkins Roofing.
Do I need a building permit for a roof replacement in Beaumont?
Texas has no statewide building code, so permitting rules are set city by city. Check with the City of Beaumont building department, or ask Perkins Roofing whether they pull the permit as part of the job.
What should I ask before signing a roofing contract?
Ask for proof of current general liability insurance, a written scope of work and materials list, the payment schedule, the workmanship warranty period, and whether the company or the manufacturer handles warranty claims.
Does Perkins Roofing work on residential roofs or only commercial?
Perkins Roofing's public materials emphasize commercial and industrial roofing. Ask the company directly whether they take on residential projects.
How long does a typical commercial roof replacement take?
Timelines vary widely with roof size, system type and weather. Ask Perkins Roofing for a project-specific schedule based on your building's roof.
Does Perkins Roofing handle insurance claims for storm or hail damage?
Perkins Roofing's BBB profile lists emergency response and windstorm certificates among its services, which often relate to storm damage documentation. Confirm directly whether they assist with the insurance claim process itself.
