About
Stone Gate Roofing is a Houston specialty roofing contractor at 10010 E Hardy Rd in the north side 77093 area, reachable on (713) 695-3541. The company positions itself around high end and heavy roofing rather than volume shingle work, and its own site claims 27 years of roofing and gutter experience in Houston. It handles new construction, full replacements, repairs and ongoing maintenance across residential and commercial buildings, and runs its own sheet metal work, chimney shrouds, gutter installation and repair and power washing alongside the roofing.
The material range is the most distinctive thing about it. Slate, clay and concrete tile, copper and fabricated sheet metal, standing seam and other metal systems, asphalt shingle and flat or low slope roofing all appear on its pages, and it names a specific set of supply partners including Boral US Tile, Verea Tile, Innova Tile, Samaca, Santafe, McElroy Metal, Berridge Metal, TAMKO Building Products and GCP Applied Technologies. That mix points at the tile and slate roofs common in older and higher end Houston neighbourhoods rather than at tract subdivision reroofs.
On credentials, the verifiable item is RCAT. The Roofing Contractors Association of Texas lists Stone Gate Roofing, LLC in Houston with primary contact Jovanny Vences holding the CRRL designation and Commercial & Residential Roofing License #03-0652, a member since 2025. That is the separately earned Licensed Roofing Contractor credential, not plain membership. The company also states GAF certification, DaVinci Masterpiece Contractor status and The Roofing Institute certified installer status on its own site, none of which could be confirmed at the relevant manufacturer or institute directory during this research, so they are recorded as company statements. The Better Business Bureau holds a file opened in September 2012 but has not issued a rating and the business is not BBB Accredited. Texas has no state roofing license, so a Harris County homeowner's real checks are the RCAT credential above, current liability and workers compensation certificates, and references on comparable tile or slate work.
Highlights
Tile, slate, copper and sheet metal specialist rather than a volume shingle reroofer, with named supply partners including Boral US Tile, Verea Tile, McElroy Metal and Berridge Metal.
Primary contact Jovanny Vences holds the RCAT CRRL credential (Commercial & Residential Roofing License #03-0652), the earned Licensed Roofing Contractor designation covering both residential and commercial work.
Runs its own sheet metal fabrication, which matters for custom flashing, chimney shrouds, copper details and gutter profiles that a shingle crew would subcontract.
Covers the full lifecycle on one roof: new construction, replacement, repair and ongoing maintenance, plus gutters and power washing.
States 27 years of roofing and gutter experience in the Houston market.
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 licence yourself at web.rcat.net/rcat/search — search #03-0652 or the company name.
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 experience from start to finish. I upgraded to a Class 4 impact-resistant shingle due to all the hail storms we’ve been getting, and the process was smooth and hassle-free. Jovanny took great care of me throughout the project, kept me informed every step of the way, and provided excellent communication. The workmanship was outstanding, and I’m very happy with the final result. Highly recommend!

After the recent storm, we discovered a major leak on our tile roof, Stone Gate came out to tarp & repaired the roof when the rains subsided. They were communicating me throughout the process on the leak. We appreciate their excellent service & would highly recommend them to anyone needing tile roof repairs.

Me and my neighbor had our roof replaced by Stone Gate Roofing. They had good communication with us and arrived on time. They did a great job

I have been working with stone gate for 5 years. They have been excellent to work with. I never have issues with their products whether it be tile roofs, metal roofs, shingles, or gutters. Their service has been outstanding! I work for a large homebuilder and they have done several roofs for me. When a third part inspector comes out to inspect the roof rarely if ever can they find anything. I have even started using them on my personal home and projects outside of work.

They seemed very good at first, but they damage some trim/siding and its been three months of waiting for them to come back and fix. Price was very competitive, but disappeared after getting paid and left some unfinished business.
Texas issues no state roofing license, so the question is which voluntary credential a roofer holds. Stone Gate is listed in the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas directory with primary contact Jovanny Vences holding CRRL and Commercial & Residential Roofing License #03-0652, which is the earned Licensed Roofing Contractor credential rather than plain paid membership.
How do I make sure I have the right Stone Gate Roofing?
The name is shared with unrelated companies in other states. The Houston company is Stone Gate Roofing, LLC at 10010 E Hardy Rd, Houston, TX 77093, phone (713) 695-3541, website stonegateroofing.com. RCAT and the BBB both carry that address and number. If a quote arrives from a different domain or a different phone number, it is a different business.
What kinds of roofs does the company specialise in?
Its own pages lead with slate, clay and concrete tile, copper and fabricated sheet metal, and metal systems, alongside asphalt shingle and flat or low slope roofing. It names tile and metal suppliers including Boral US Tile, Verea Tile, Innova Tile, Samaca, Santafe, McElroy Metal and Berridge Metal, which points at heavy and architectural roofing rather than tract shingle work.
Which of its stated certifications can I verify myself?
The RCAT credential is verifiable in the RCAT directory. GAF certification, DaVinci Masterpiece Contractor status and The Roofing Institute certified installer status appear on the company's own website but could not be confirmed at the manufacturers' or institute's own directories during this research, so treat them as claims to check directly with the manufacturer before relying on them for a warranty.
Is Stone Gate Roofing BBB Accredited?
No. The BBB has a file on the Houston business opened on 25 September 2012, but the profile states the business is not BBB Accredited and that the BBB does not have enough information to issue a rating. That is not a negative finding on its own, it simply means the BBB record is thin.
How long has the company been roofing in Houston?
The website states 27 years of roofing and gutter experience in Houston. Company formation records tell a shorter story: the RCAT listing gives a company established date of 17 February 2016, while the BBB opened its file in 2012. Ask the company directly how the current entity relates to its earlier history.
Do I need a permit for a reroof in Houston?
Texas has no statewide building code enforcement, so it is set locally. The City of Houston requires permits for roofing work in most cases, and unincorporated Harris County and the many small incorporated cities inside the county each have their own rules. Ask who pulls the permit and confirm with the authority that covers your exact address.
What does the Houston climate do to a roof?
Heat, humidity and heavy rainfall are the drivers. Long wet spells feed algae staining and rot at any poorly flashed penetration, thermal cycling works fasteners loose, and intense downpours expose undersized gutters and blocked valleys. On tile and slate roofs the underlayment usually fails long before the tile does, which is why a tile roof can need a full underlayment replacement while the original tile is reused.
Should I consider impact resistant shingles in Harris County?
Hail is less frequent in Harris County than in North Texas, but it is not absent, and many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for a UL 2218 Class 4 impact resistant roof. If you are reroofing in asphalt shingle anyway, price the Class 4 upgrade and ask your carrier in writing what the discount would be before deciding.
What should I ask before signing a tile or slate roofing contract?
Ask for the underlayment specification and its rated life, whether existing tile or slate will be salvaged and reused and at what breakage allowance, how flashings and valleys will be detailed and in what metal, decking repair pricing, the workmanship warranty length and who honours it, and a certificate of insurance you can verify by phoning the agent. Also ask to see two comparable local projects in the same material.
