Checking Redline Roofing against the Texas record
Texas leaves roofing unlicensed at the state level, so the voluntary RCAT program (Roofing Contractors Association of Texas) and its public contractor directory are the credential that exists 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.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
- Go to the registry and search by license number first, business name second.
