In Texas, roofing contractors are not required to be licensed by the state. However, there may be local municipal requirements. Additionally, roofers in Texas have the option to join the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas, which provides continuing education, consultation, public outreach and research for roofing and waterproofing contractors.
You can use a number of criteria to find the best roofer near you, including:
The cost of roof repair varies widely depending on what repairs need to be done. The average cost in Texas is about $793, but for a more accurate estimate you should ask a local contractor directly.
Roof replacement costs fluctuate depending on your location, and are affected by factors like the material used, how many stories your home has, and the size and accessibility of your roof. The average cost of roof replacement in Texas is around $7,419.
In some cases, home insurance will cover roof repairs. Before you choose a provider, get in touch with a representative from your insurance company and ask if there are any preferred contractors. Your insurance company might be more likely to cover repairs if the damage was caused by a covered weather event like TornadoRisk. Before signing any roof repair or replacement contracts, it's a good idea to speak with your home insurance provider and a financial advisor.
