Why Licensing Matters: Choosing a Licensed Roofing Contractor in Texas
In Texas, roofing contractors are not required to obtain a state license, making it essential for homeowners to carefully vet the roofers they hire. One way to ensure quality and professionalism is to look for contractors who voluntarily pursue certification through the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (RCAT) to become a licensed roofing contractor.
Americana Roofing is proud to hold RCAT voluntary License #03-0592 for both residential and commercial roofing, a designation that sets us apart. In fact, Americana Roofing is one of only two RCAT-licensed contractors in Parker County, Texas, underscoring our commitment to excellence and to providing the community with dependable, high-quality roofing services.
What Is the RCAT Voluntary Licensing Program?
RCAT’s voluntary licensing program is a rigorous certification process that holds contractors to the highest industry standards. To earn this certification, contractors must:
- Demonstrate Expertise: Pass written exams on roofing systems, safety standards, and Texas-specific regulations.
- Meet Insurance Standards: Provide proof of liability insurance and workers’ compensation (or equivalent) to protect customers and workers.
- Commit to Professional Development: Stay up to date on industry innovations and safety practices through ongoing education.
RCAT certification ensures that a contractor has the technical skills, ethical practices, and accountability necessary to deliver top-tier roofing services.
