How to check Punum Roofing of Houston, 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.
- Search the registry by number, then by name, because spellings differ between sources.
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
- Compare the registry name with the name on the contract, and read the status line.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
