certainteed: There's No Such Thing As A Licensed Roofer in Texas (yet) - 04/25/16 05:26 AM
In Texas, only specialty contractors (HVAC, fire sprinkler systems, plumbing, electricians and well drilling/pump installation specialists) need to be licensed. These licenses are administered through the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. 
As this time, trades such as home builders, general contractors, roofers, and foundation companies are not required to carry a state-level license or registration.  Depending on the municipality or County where the contract work is to be performed, local requirements can come into play. Aside from required permits, local ordinances may additionally require City registration, or membership to a voluntary association, such as the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas.
