Checking South Texas Gutters & Roofing against the Texas record
Texas has no state roofing license. The Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (RCAT) runs a voluntary industry licensing program with a public contractor directory Official lookup: RCAT Licensed Contractors directory.
- Go to the registry and search by license number first, business name second.
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
- The registry name, the contract name and the truck lettering should all agree; the status should be active.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
