How It Works for Fort Worth, TX Homeowners

The person who follows up works for a roofing company, not for this site. That company is independent: it sets its own prices, writes its own estimates and contracts, and answers for its own workmanship. The roofing company pays this site for each referral. Homeowners never pay us and never receive anything from us, whether they hire the roofer or not.
What Happens After You Submit
- Your request goes out once. The details from the form or your phone call go to one independent roofer and nowhere else.
- The roofer gets in touch. Expect a call or message from the roofing company to set a time that suits you.
- The roof gets a proper look. The roofer checks shingles, flashing, valleys and attic ventilation, then measures the roof.
- A written estimate follows. It should list materials, scope and price. Many roofers give estimates at no charge; ask the roofer.
- The choice stays yours. Hire that roofer, collect other bids or wait a season. Nothing obliges you to go ahead.
What to Ask the Roofer
The State of Texas doesn't issue licenses to roofing contractors, so there is no state database to search. Some cities here require roofers to register with the city before they can pull a permit. The rest of the checking falls to you, and these are the points worth covering before you sign anything.
- Insurance on paper. A current general liability certificate, and workers' comp coverage for any crew on payroll.
- A written contract. Price, scope and materials spelled out, and on an insurance job, the printed deductible notice Texas requires.
- Two warranties in writing. The maker's warranty on the shingles or panels, registered with the manufacturer, and the roofer's own labor warranty.
- A fixed local address. Plus references from recent jobs you can call.
- Permit and HOA plans. Who pulls any permit, whether the roofer is registered with that city, and who seeks HOA approval for color and material.
- Ventilation and underlayment. Ask what the roofer plans for attic airflow and for underlayment at the eaves and valleys.
- Payment terms. Steer clear of cash-only or full-upfront demands. Ask what is needed up front and pay by a method you can trace.
Limits Worth Knowing
This site offers information and a referral, nothing more. It doesn't look at roofs, price jobs, sign contracts or oversee any work. It never offers to pay, waive or soak up an insurance deductible, and Texas bars roofers from making that offer too. It also stays out of insurance claims. A roofer can document damage and write an estimate, while the claim itself is worked out by you and your insurer, or by a licensed public adjuster or attorney you hire.
Complaints about a roofer's business practices can go to the Texas Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division, and insurance questions to the Texas Department of Insurance. The referral marketing disclosure sets out the payment arrangement in full.
