About
Square Roofing is a Kerrville roofing contractor based at 320 W Main St in the centre of town, serving Kerr County and the surrounding Texas Hill Country. Its BBB profile lists Nick C. Powell as managing member and shows the business started on 30 April 2019, with the current entity incorporated in June 2022. The BBB record is A+ with accreditation since 22 June 2022.
The work mix reflects Hill Country building stock rather than suburban tract housing. The BBB service list covers roof replacement, metal roof installation, flat roofing, asphalt shingles, decking replacement, flashing repair, attic ventilation, gutter installation, roof inspections and insurance claims assistance. Metal is a significant part of that. Standing seam and exposed fastener metal are common on ranch buildings, porches and Hill Country homes, they shed hail better than three tab shingle, and a metal panel over a solid deck with the right underlayment reaches a Class A fire rating, which matters in an area with real wildfire and grass fire exposure.
Two manufacturer credentials check out on the manufacturers' own directories rather than on the company's say so. GAF lists Square Roofing in Kerrville as GAF Certified Plus, and Owens Corning lists it as a Preferred Contractor at the same W Main St address and (830) 928-9428 phone number. Note that the company's website, squareroofing.com, is currently returning a Wix placeholder saying the domain is not connected to a site, so the details here come from the manufacturer directories, the BBB profile and the RCAT record instead.

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.

City/county registration

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.

Great job! Of the three bids I received, Square Roofing’s was by far the most comprehensive with a lot of information on the process of filing for insurance, payment, their certifications. My new roof looks great.

I used Square Roofing to replace my roof and I am extremely glad that I chose them. The wind and hail damage had left my roof in an awful shape. I had strips of plastic all over my roof to prevent potential damage from rain. Nick worked with my insurance company to help provide the best coverage for my damaged roof. Nick and his workers were so professional doing an excellent job and completing the work in one day.
I highly recommend Square roofing for all of your roofing issues. Nick is kind and considerate and he explains the reason for every step of the work. Nick and Square Roofing gives you an Excellent roof at an affordable price!!

Frequently asked
Is Square Roofing licensed by the State of Texas?
Texas issues no state roofing licence, so no Texas roofer holds one. The checks worth making are current general liability and workers compensation insurance confirmed directly with the insurer, any local registration Kerrville or Kerr County requires, and voluntary credentials. Square Roofing is recorded as an RCAT Member.
Is an RCAT Member the same as an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
No. RCAT membership means the company pays dues to the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is a separate qualification earned by an individual through RCAT's own requirements. Square Roofing is listed as a Member. That is a real association tie, but it should not be read as a licence.
Which of Square Roofing's certifications can I verify myself?
Two, and both on the manufacturers' own websites. GAF's residential contractor directory lists Square Roofing in Kerrville as GAF Certified Plus. Owens Corning's contractor directory lists it as a Preferred Contractor at the same address and phone number. Checking a certification on the manufacturer's own site, rather than on a contractor's marketing page, is always the right test.
Why is metal roofing so common in the Hill Country?
Metal sheds hail and heavy rain well, handles the long hot Hill Country summers without the granule loss that ages a shingle roof, suits the low pitched porches and long roof planes common on ranch style and limestone homes, and lasts far longer than asphalt. It also pairs naturally with rainwater collection, which is still widely used on Hill Country properties on well or hauled water.
Does a metal roof help with wildfire risk in Kerr County?
It can. Kerr County has genuine grass fire and wildfire exposure in dry years, and the roof is the main place where wind blown embers land. A non combustible metal panel over a solid deck with a compliant underlayment can achieve a Class A fire rating. The other half of the job is ember resistant details: closing gaps at ridge, eaves and valleys, screening or baffling attic vents, and keeping gutters clear of leaf litter.
Does hail damage metal roofs the same way it damages shingles?
Not the same way. Hail usually dents metal rather than fracturing it, so a metal roof often keeps working after a storm that would end the life of a shingle roof. Heavy gauge panels and standing seam profiles dent less than thin exposed fastener panels. Cosmetic dent coverage varies by insurance policy, so ask your carrier whether cosmetic damage to metal is covered or excluded before you buy.
What should I know about permits and inspections in Kerrville?
Texas has no statewide residential building code enforcement, so requirements are set locally. The City of Kerrville and Kerr County set their own permitting and inspection rules, and they are not necessarily the same if your property is outside the city limits. Ask the contractor in writing who pulls the permit and confirm the requirement with the relevant office yourself.
How do rainwater collection systems change a reroof?
If you collect rainwater for household use, the roof covering, the coating on it and the gutter and first flush hardware all affect water quality. Some coatings and treated products are not suitable for potable collection. Tell any bidder up front that the roof feeds a collection system so the material specification, gutter layout and debris screening are chosen for that, not fitted afterwards.
What should Hill Country homeowners ask before signing a roofing contract?
Ask for the certificate of insurance direct from the insurer, ask what happens to the price if rotten decking is uncovered, get the manufacturer warranty and the workmanship warranty in writing as separate documents, ask about access and material staging on a rural drive, and ask who is on site supervising. Do not pay a large deposit before materials are on the property.
The company's website is not loading. Is that a problem?
As of this listing, squareroofing.com returns a placeholder saying the domain is not connected to a site, which usually means a hosting or domain issue rather than a closed business. The company still appears live on GAF's and Owens Corning's contractor directories and on an active BBB profile with an A+ rating. Reach them by phone on (830) 928-9428 and treat the website outage as a temporary technical problem, not a verdict on the business.
