How to check Rios Roofing Laredo, Inc. on the Texas record
no state roofing license exists in Texas — instead, the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (RCAT) maintains a voluntary industry licensing program and a public contractor directory Official lookup: RCAT Licensed Contractors directory.
- Compare the registry name with the name on the contract, and read the status line.
- Write down the expiry and make sure it outlasts the job.
- Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
- Search the registry by number, then by name, because spellings differ between sources.
