How to check Patriot Roofing on the Texas record
the state of Texas does not license roofers; the voluntary industry program run by the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (RCAT) publishes its licensed contractors in a public directory Official lookup: RCAT Licensed Contractors directory.
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
- Match the name, the city and the status. The record should read active or in good standing.
- Search the registry by number, then by name, because spellings differ between sources.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
