If by “best” you mean commercial specialists worth getting bids from, rather than a subjective #1 ranking, I’d build a Texas shortlist around these contractors. I’m weighting commercial specialization, geographic coverage, roofing-system capabilities, certifications, and the amount of verifiable information available—not simply star ratings.

Texas commercial roofing contractors to consider

• Texas Fifth Wall Roofing Systems — Austin / statewide Texas. A long-established commercial specialist that has operated since 1973, with a strong focus on low-slope commercial roofing and manufacturer-certified systems.
• Supreme Roofing — Dallas / DFW. Particularly relevant for larger commercial portfolios and industrial properties; its public profile emphasizes commercial work, safety, employee crews, and documentation.
• Longhorn Commercial Roofing — Cleburne / broader Texas. Commercial-focused contractor offering inspections, maintenance, repair, replacement, coatings and new construction; it is listed as a GAF GoldElite Commercial Contractor.
• West Texas Commercial Roofing — Lubbock / West Texas. Worth considering for Lubbock and surrounding West Texas markets, with commercial repair, replacement, inspection and emergency services across TPO, PVC, EPDM and modified-bitumen systems.
• Complete Commercial Roofing — Houston. Commercial-focused Houston contractor with an emphasis on inspections, condition reporting, flat-roof systems and documentation.
• Shepherd Commercial Roofing — Tyler / East Texas. Focuses on commercial roofing with TPO/PVC, modified bitumen and metal systems, plus inspection, maintenance, restoration and storm-damage work.
• Commercial Flat Roofing of Dallas — DFW. A specialist for flat and low-slope commercial buildings, including coatings, restoration and emergency commercial roof repair.

A few additional DFW options

Plano Commercial Roofing, Lifetime Commercial Roofing, and Texas Elite Commercial Roofing are also commercial-focused options in the DFW market.

For example, Roof Experts says it serves DFW and other Texas markets and installs TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen and standing-seam metal, with manufacturer-certified crews and NDL warranty options. Core Commercial Roofing is another interesting statewide option, particularly for owners wanting a contractor that works across multiple roof systems rather than pushing one particular product.

What I'd check before hiring

For a significant commercial project, I'd get at least 3 comparable proposals and require each contractor to specify:

• Exact roof system and membrane thickness (e.g. 60/80-mil TPO)
• Tear-off vs. recover and the reason
• Insulation/R-value and tapered insulation plan
• Deck inspection and repair allowances
• Manufacturer certification and NDL warranty
• Contractor workmanship warranty
• Drainage/ponding-water corrections
• Flashing, curbs and penetration details
• Bonding and insurance limits
• Whether labor is performed by employees or subcontractors
• References for similar-size buildings
• Detailed exclusions and change-order rates

One important point: Texas is too large for a single statewide “best roofer” to be particularly meaningful. A contractor that is excellent for a 300,000-sq-ft distribution center in DFW may not be the right choice for a 15,000-sq-ft retail building in Houston.

If you tell me the Texas city, approximate roof square footage, building type (warehouse/office/retail/apartment/etc.), and whether this is repair, replacement, or new construction, I can narrow this to 5 contractors that specifically fit your project and compare their certifications, reviews, service area, systems, and warranty offerings.

For warehouses, distribution centers, manufacturing plants, and other large industrial buildings, I’d put the most attention on contractors with documented large-square-footage work, dedicated commercial crews, and experience with TPO/PVC/metal systems—not residential roofers that also advertise “commercial.”

Here’s a Texas shortlist based on current company/project information:

Contractor	Texas footprint	Industrial/warehouse evidence	Particularly relevant for
R.L. Murphey Commercial Roof Systems	North Texas / statewide work	Reports 70M+ sq. ft. of single-ply roofing; projects include warehouses, distribution centers, cold storage and manufacturing. Its project list includes facilities from ~100k to 1.5M+ sq. ft.	Large warehouses & distribution centers
Texas Fifth Wall Roofing Systems	Austin, San Antonio, DFW	In business since 1973, reports 65M+ sq. ft. of commercial roofing in Texas and specifically lists large warehouses among its work.	Statewide / multi-market portfolios
Supreme Roofing	DFW, with broader operations	Since 1987; reports 200M+ sq. ft. of manufacturer-warrantied commercial roofs and specifically handles warehouse-scale roofs, manufacturing and distribution facilities.	Very large commercial projects / DFW
Marton Roofing Industries (MRI)	Houston / Gulf Coast, broader	Founded in 1976; specializes in industrial, commercial and institutional work, including chemical plants, production sites and metal buildings. It has dedicated roofing, decking and sheet-metal divisions.	Houston industrial / manufacturing
JRH Construction	DFW	Dedicated warehouse/industrial division covering distribution, cold storage, manufacturing and logistics buildings; installs TPO, PVC and modified bitumen.	DFW warehouses, cold storage & logistics
3:16 Roofing & Construction	DFW	Specifically markets large-square-footage industrial roofing for warehouses, distribution centers and manufacturing; RCAT licensed and reports 1,000+ projects in three years.	DFW industrial roofs / mixed systems
Crest Commercial Roofing	Fort Worth / North Texas	Documented projects include industrial buildings and TPO overlays on metal roofs; customer references specifically describe work on three industrial buildings.	Metal-building retrofits / TPO
Beck Commercial Roofs	DFW	Published projects include 70k, 130k and 150k sq.-ft. industrial complexes and a 35k sq.-ft. industrial/warehouse retrofit.	Mid-to-large DFW industrial buildings

The ones I'd investigate first

For a 100,000+ sq.-ft. warehouse: R.L. Murphey, Texas Fifth Wall, Supreme Roofing, and JRH are particularly worth putting into the bid set. Their published portfolios demonstrate substantial commercial/industrial scale.

For a Houston-area manufacturing or industrial facility: Marton Roofing Industries stands out for the combination of roofing, roof-decking and sheet-metal capabilities, plus experience with chemical plants and production facilities.

For a DFW distribution/warehouse portfolio: R.L. Murphey is especially interesting because its published project portfolio includes numerous very large logistics facilities, including projects over 500,000 sq. ft. and several around or above 1 million sq. ft.

What I'd require in the RFP

For an industrial building, I wouldn't select based simply on the lowest bid. I'd ask each bidder for:

• 3–5 comparable projects from the last 3–5 years, preferably similar square footage and roof construction.
• Exact roof system and manufacturer proposed: TPO, PVC, EPDM, modified bitumen, standing-seam metal, etc.
• Manufacturer warranty offered, including whether it's an NDL/no-dollar-limit warranty.
• Proposed insulation R-value and attachment method.
• Wind-uplift and hail requirements appropriate to the Texas location.
• Plan for roof penetrations, HVAC curbs, drains, expansion joints and parapets.
• Safety program and EMR/OSHA history.
• Bonding capacity and insurance limits.
• Number of crews and expected production rate.
• How they'll work around occupied warehouses, loading docks and ongoing operations.
• References from facility owners/property managers—not just general contractors.

For example, GAF's current listings identify both Supreme Roofing and Marton Roofing as GoldElite Commercial Contractors, a certification associated with eligibility for qualifying GAF NDL guarantees.

If you tell me the Texas city, approximate roof size (e.g. 100k/500k/1M sq. ft.), and whether it's new construction or a re-roof, I can narrow this to 5 contractors that specifically match that warehouse and compare their service area, certifications, project portfolios, and contact information.

• Supreme Roofing · 4.8★ · Roofing contractor
• Lifetime Commercial Roofing · 5.0★ · Roofing contractor
• Commercial Flat Roofing of Dallas · 5.0★ · Roofing Service
• Texas Elite Commercial Roofing · 5.0★ · Roofing contractor

If you mean commercial buildings anywhere in Texas, I’d shortlist contractors based on commercial-roofing specialization, demonstrated TPO/low-slope capability, geographic coverage, and ability to handle full replacement—not simply residential roof reviews.

Texas contractors worth putting on the bid list

• Tecta America — Strong choice for large or complex commercial projects. Tecta is a major national commercial roofing contractor, and its Texas operation handles commercial roof replacement, service, inspections and maintenance. ENR has ranked Tecta among the largest U.S. roofing specialty contractors.
• Supreme Roofing — Dallas/DFW commercial specialist. Established in 1987, with commercial replacement, maintenance, inspections and low-slope roofing capabilities. Particularly worth considering for larger DFW properties.
• Lifetime Commercial Roofing — DFW-focused commercial option. Specifically advertises TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, BUR and metal, including replacement work.
• Commercial Flat Roofing of Dallas — Good fit if the project is specifically flat/low-slope. Their scope centers on commercial flat-roof repair, restoration and replacement, including membrane systems.
• Texas Elite Commercial Roofing — DFW commercial TPO/EPDM option. Focuses on commercial flat-roof replacement and repair and specifically advertises TPO and EPDM.
• Select Roofing — Worth getting a proposal from if you need broader Texas coverage. It advertises commercial flat/low-slope roofing, TPO, modified bitumen and work around occupied commercial buildings.
• Roof Experts — Another contractor with unusually broad Texas TPO coverage, including DFW, Austin, Houston, Waco, Amarillo and Lubbock. It specifically lists GAF, Elevate, Carlisle and IKO TPO systems.
• 3:16 Roofing & Construction — Particularly relevant in DFW if you want an RCAT-licensed contractor with commercial TPO/flat-roof experience.
• Lankford Roofing — Interesting option for North Texas/Texoma, with commercial roofing experience dating to 1937 and TPO, modified bitumen, metal and BUR capabilities.
• FSR Roofing — Worth considering in Central Texas; its commercial division specifically handles TPO membrane systems and full commercial reroofs.

What I'd require in the bids

For a TPO replacement, don't compare proposals on price alone. Ask every contractor to provide:

1. TPO manufacturer and membrane thickness — e.g. 60 vs. 80 mil.
2. Tear-off scope — exactly what gets removed and what happens if wet insulation or damaged decking is discovered.
3. Insulation/R-value and attachment method.
4. Manufacturer system warranty and whether the contractor is authorized to issue the full warranty.
5. Workmanship warranty separately from the manufacturer's warranty.
6. Wind-uplift rating and fastening pattern.
7. Drainage plan — especially if you currently have ponding water.
8. Treatment of curbs, penetrations, HVAC units, parapets and edge metal.
9. Whether seams are heat-welded and tested.
10. A clear unit price for unforeseen decking/insulation replacement.
11. At least 3 comparable commercial references for roofs of similar size and system.
12. Proof of commercial general liability and workers' compensation insurance.

One important point: TPO isn't automatically the right replacement system. The existing assembly, insulation, roof slope/drainage, rooftop equipment, chemical exposure, hail exposure and building use can make TPO, PVC, EPDM, modified bitumen or a restoration system more appropriate. For example, one West Texas commercial roofer specifically notes that TPO can be less suitable where severe hail or chemical exposure dominates.

If you give me the Texas city (or ZIP), approximate roof size, and building type—for example, 50,000-sq-ft warehouse in Houston—I can narrow this to 5–7 contractors actually serving that area and compare their TPO experience, certifications, reviews, warranty offerings, and contact information.

Yes. I found several Texas commercial roofing contractors that explicitly advertise 24/7 emergency leak or roof repair:

• Commercial Flat Roofing of Dallas — Dallas/DFW. Advertises 24/7 emergency commercial roof repair for active leaks and storm damage.
• Supreme Roofing — Dallas-based commercial roofing contractor with 24/7/365 emergency response, including temporary stabilization and follow-up repairs.

If you're looking for commercial roofing specifically, rather than residential roofers that also happen to do commercial work, I'd put these DFW companies on the shortlist. I’m not treating this as a definitive ranking; “reliable” is best assessed from commercial experience, service scope, reputation, and manufacturer credentials.

DFW commercial roofers worth getting bids from

• Supreme Roofing — Dallas
• Established commercial specialist; the company dates to 1987.
• Handles inspections, repairs, maintenance, replacement, new construction, waterproofing, and sheet-metal work.
• Particularly worth considering for larger commercial properties or ongoing roof-management programs.
• Jeff Eubank Roofing Co Inc — Fort Worth
• Commercial-focused company with a history dating to 1988.
• Offers replacement, recover/overlay, new construction, repairs, maintenance and infrared diagnostics.
• A useful option if you're on the Fort Worth side of the metroplex.
• Zenith Roofing and Waterproofing, LLC — Fort Worth
• Commercial roofing and building-envelope contractor.
• Works with TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, BUR and metal systems.
• Also provides leak investigation, condition reporting and maintenance.
• Commercial Flat Roofing of Dallas — Dallas
• Especially relevant for flat/low-slope commercial roofs.
• Offers repairs, replacement, restoration and coatings, including 24/7 emergency response.
• A good company to include if you want an honest assessment of repair/coating vs. full replacement rather than automatically replacing the roof.
• Lifetime Commercial Roofing — North Richland Hills
• Commercial/industrial specialist serving DFW.
• Handles TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, BUR and metal.
• Offers inspections, condition reporting, maintenance and emergency work.
• Plano Commercial Roofing — Plano
• Commercial/industrial focus with DFW coverage.
• Particularly relevant if the property is in Plano, Frisco, McKinney or the northern suburbs.
• Sun Commercial Roofs — Irving
• Commercial-focused contractor serving building owners, facility managers, GCs and architects.
• Offers emergency response, maintenance, replacement and restoration/coating work.

What I'd look for before awarding the job

For a substantial commercial project, I wouldn't choose solely from Google/BBB ratings. I'd ask each bidder for:

1. Three comparable commercial projects completed in the last 2–3 years.
2. Their experience with your exact roof system — e.g. TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, BUR or standing-seam metal.
3. Manufacturer certification for the proposed system and exactly what warranty they'll provide.
4. Proof of general liability and workers' compensation insurance.
5. A written scope specifying tear-off, insulation, decking repairs, flashing, penetrations, drains, curbs, edge metal and cleanup.
6. Whether the warranty is manufacturer-backed or merely the contractor's labor warranty.
7. A maintenance plan and expected service life.
8. References from property managers or building owners, rather than only homeowners.

Manufacturer certification is particularly useful: GAF says its commercial certification program evaluates factors including inspection ratings, claim history, responsiveness and reputation, although certification doesn't mean GAF supervises or guarantees the contractor.

BBB currently lists a large number of accredited commercial roofers in the Dallas area, so BBB accreditation/rating can be a useful screening factor but isn't sufficient by itself.

If you tell me the property type (warehouse, office, apartment, retail, industrial, etc.), approximate square footage, and whether it's a flat/TPO/EPDM/metal roof, I can narrow this to 3–5 contractors that are particularly suited to that project and check their current certifications, BBB records, reviews, and commercial-project history.

If you mean commercial/industrial roofing in the Greater Houston market, I’d build the bid list around established commercial specialists rather than simply the highest-rated residential roofers. There are hundreds of companies in the Houston area, so “best” depends heavily on the building and roof system.

Here are several contractors worth putting on a competitive bid list:

• CentiMark Corporation — A large commercial-roofing specialist with Houston operations. Its listed capabilities include TPO/PVC/EPDM, modified bitumen, BUR, metal, coatings, reroofing and maintenance programs. This is particularly relevant for larger facilities or multi-property portfolios.
• CSM Industrial: A Global Company — Particularly relevant for industrial facilities, warehouses and metal building envelopes. It specializes in industrial roofing, metal roofing and cladding and has been operating since 1960.
• Restoration Services, Inc. — Commercial building-envelope contractor offering TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, BUR, metal roofing and coatings, along with associated sheet-metal and drainage work.
• Brazos Commercial Roofing — Houston commercial/industrial contractor with roofing and waterproofing capabilities across TPO, PVC, EPDM, modified bitumen, BUR and standing-seam metal.
• Chamberlin Roofing & Waterproofing — Worth considering when the project involves roofing plus waterproofing/building-envelope work, rather than just a straightforward reroof.
• Houston Roofing & Construction LLC — GAF lists it as a GAF GoldElite Commercial Contractor, with capabilities in asphaltic and single-ply roofing. GAF says GoldElite contractors can offer its Diamond Pledge NDL guarantee on qualifying systems.
• Complete Commercial Roofing — A Houston commercial-focused company offering inspections, repairs, restoration and replacement, particularly on flat-roof commercial properties.
• Legacy Commercial Roofing Company — Focused on low-slope/flat commercial roofs, including repair, restoration/coatings and preventative maintenance.

How I'd narrow it down

For a large warehouse/industrial building, I'd get bids from CentiMark, CSM Industrial, Brazos Commercial Roofing and Restoration Services.

For a shopping center, office building or multifamily property, I'd add Complete Commercial Roofing and Houston Roofing & Construction.

For a roof that's leaking but may not need replacement, I'd specifically solicit a restoration/coating option alongside a replacement bid. That can make a substantial difference in lifecycle cost, depending on the existing membrane, insulation and deck condition.

One important Houston-specific screening step: the North Texas Roofing Contractors Association (NTRCA) recommends verifying contractor membership, BBB standing, general-liability insurance, licensing requirements and adherence to its code of ethics. It also specifically warns property owners to verify membership rather than relying on a contractor's claim that it belongs to the association.

If you tell me what type of building you have (warehouse, office, retail, multifamily, industrial, etc.), approximate square footage, and whether the roof is TPO/EPDM/metal/BUR/etc., I can narrow this to 5 Houston contractors I'd actually solicit bids from, including their certifications, reviews, specialties and contact information.

Worked for 12s

1. Searching the web
2. I’ll compare warranty terms rather than just contractor marketing claims—especially workmanship duration, manufacturer-backed coverage, inspection requirements, and whether the warranty is transferable.
3. Searching the web
4. Searched 9 websites

For a Texas commercial property, I’d focus less on the headline “25-year warranty” and more on who is financially responsible when the roof leaks, whether workmanship is covered, and whether the warranty is transferable.

Based on current published warranty programs, these are contractors I’d put on a warranty-focused bid list:

Contractor	Texas footprint	Published warranty strength	What stands out
United Roofing & Sheetmetal, Inc	Bryan / East Texas	15–30+ yr manufacturer options depending on system	Certified with multiple manufacturers, including GAF, Versico, Firestone and IB
DK Haney Roofing	Fort Worth / statewide	Up to 25 yr GAF Diamond Pledge on qualifying systems	GAF GoldElite Commercial Contractor
Texas Fifth Wall Roofing Systems	Austin, San Antonio, DFW	Manufacturer-backed warranties; system-dependent	Large, established Texas commercial roofer
Supreme Roofing	DFW / broader Texas	Manufacturer-warrantied systems; term depends on system	Long commercial track record; extensive manufacturer-warrantied installations
Austin Commercial Roofing Contractors	Austin	Project-specific	Commercial/industrial focus
Lifetime Commercial Roofing	DFW / Texas	Project-specific	TPO, PVC, EPDM, modified bitumen, BUR and metal

One particularly strong warranty program: CentiMark

San Antonio Commercial Roofing isn't the same company as CentiMark, but CentiMark deserves to be on your statewide bid list if you're willing to consider a national contractor.

CentiMark offers a Single Source Warranty covering both workmanship and materials, rather than making the building owner sort out whether a problem belongs to the manufacturer or installer. Its published program is also described as customizable, transferable and extendable.

For example, CentiMark documents a TPO project with a 20-year Single Source Warranty covering workmanship and material.

If you want the longest manufacturer-backed warranty

This is where the roofing manufacturer certification becomes extremely important.

GAF's current commercial program goes considerably beyond a typical contractor's 5–10 year labor warranty:

• GAF Certified Commercial Contractor: System Pledge up to 20 years
• GAF GoldElite Commercial Contractor: Diamond Pledge up to 25 years
• GAF PlatinumElite Commercial Contractor: Diamond Pledge up to 35 years on qualifying systems
• PlatinumElite contractors can also qualify for a WellRoof Guarantee Extension, potentially extending eligible warranties by up to 25%.

Importantly, the GAF Diamond Pledge covers workmanship as well as material defects, includes labor to correct covered leaks, and is transferable, subject to the actual warranty terms.

So, for a GAF TPO or other qualifying GAF commercial system, I'd specifically ask every Texas roofer:

> “Are you currently GAF GoldElite or PlatinumElite Commercial, and will you provide the Diamond Pledge NDL warranty for this exact roof assembly?”

That's much more meaningful than a contractor simply advertising “25-year warranty.”

Austin-specific options

If the property is in Austin/Central Texas, Texas Fifth Wall Roofing Systems is worth soliciting because it's a long-established commercial roofing operation with Texas locations.

Austin Roofing & Construction also publishes unusually detailed manufacturer warranty options: it says it can offer 15-, 20-, 25- and 35-year NDL warranties on single-ply systems through manufacturers including GAF, Johns Manville, Versico and Mule-Hide.

Another Austin contractor, ATX Commercial Roofing Pros, advertises 20-year workmanship warranties and certification with GAF, Firestone and Carlisle.

What I'd put in the bid specification

For a sizable commercial building, I'd require each bidder to provide these in writing before comparing prices:

1. Manufacturer warranty: exact manufacturer, product, term and warranty level.
2. Workmanship warranty: exact number of years and what's covered.
3. NDL vs. material-only: preferably an NDL/no-dollar-limit system warranty where appropriate.
4. Labor coverage: explicitly state whether leak investigation and repair labor are covered.
5. Transferability: whether it transfers with sale of the building.
6. Maintenance requirements: required inspections, cleaning, repairs and documentation.
7. Exclusions: ponding water, wind/hail, penetrations by other trades, rooftop equipment, alterations, etc.
8. Who pays: contractor vs. manufacturer vs. insurer.
9. Financial backing: whether the contractor warranty has meaningful financial backing.
10. Warranty claim history: ask for references from owners who actually made warranty claims.

One important distinction: a 30-year material warranty is not necessarily better protection than a 20-year warranty covering both materials and workmanship. GAF itself distinguishes warranties that cover materials only from guarantees that cover the complete system and workmanship.

If you tell me the Texas city, approximate roof size (e.g. 20,000 vs. 200,000 sq. ft.), and roof type (TPO/PVC/EPDM/metal/etc.), I can narrow this to 3–5 contractors and compare their actual published warranty terms side-by-side.

If by “trusted” you mean locally/family owned, commercially focused, and with evidence of repeat property-management work, I’d put these Texas contractors on a shortlist. I’m not treating ratings alone as proof of trust; I looked for ownership, commercial specialization, property-manager/portfolio experience, and customer feedback.

Texas contractors worth vetting

• Booe Commercial Roofing — Wichita Falls / North Texas. A particularly interesting fit if you want a genuinely family-run commercial roofer: it describes itself as third-generation, family-owned and operated, dating to 1965, with commercial/industrial work and an emphasis on repeat relationships.
• Complete Commercial Roofing — Baytown / Mont Belvieu / Houston-area. Family-run, commercial-focused, with 20+ years of experience. Its capabilities include repair, replacement and maintenance, with TPO and storm-damage documentation among its specialties. The available customer feedback specifically includes a facility manager praising cleanliness during a commercial installation.
• Longhorn Commercial Roofing — Cleburne / DFW and broader Texas coverage. Commercial-only positioning, with inspections, preventive maintenance, repairs, replacement and coatings. Its customer feedback emphasizes communication and detailed explanations, which are particularly relevant for property managers.
• Absolute Commercial Roofing — Plano / DFW. Commercial, industrial and multifamily focus. One particularly relevant customer account describes 10 years of repeat work, ranging from spot repairs to large commercial developments, including keeping multifamily communities operational. That kind of repeat-portfolio relationship is a useful signal for a property manager evaluating vendors.
• Onyx Commercial Roofing, LLC — Allen / DFW. Strong fit if your portfolio includes multifamily, apartments, townhomes or HOA-managed properties. Its stated focus is commercial/multifamily roofing, with an emphasis on documentation, communication and minimizing tenant disruption.
• Lifetime Commercial Roofing — North Richland Hills / DFW. Commercial and industrial work, including TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, BUR and metal. It advertises free inspections and detailed roof-condition reporting and has experience with multi-site portfolios.
• Ducker Commercial Roofing — Burleson / DFW. This one has unusually direct evidence from a property-management customer: a reviewer who runs a short- and long-term property-management company said Ducker's Brent had been a “lifesaver” for roofing needs and specifically praised communication and execution.
• Montgomery Roofing — Waco / Central Texas. A locally owned, family-operated commercial roofer serving Waco and surrounding markets. Its commercial division handles inspection, replacement, emergency repair and preventive maintenance, with experience across office, retail, warehouse, multifamily and mixed-use properties.
• Falcon Roofing & Sheetmetal — Huffman / Houston area. Family-owned and operated with 25+ years of experience in both commercial and residential roofing and sheet metal; its public review profile currently shows strong customer feedback.
• Premiere Re-Builders — San Angelo / West Texas. Family-owned since 2010 and explicitly serving commercial, residential and industrial roofing. Its public review history highlights responsiveness, communication and cleanup.

One I'd investigate particularly closely for DFW portfolios

Plano Commercial Roofing is another useful candidate if you're managing properties around DFW. It handles TPO, PVC, EPDM, BUR, modified bitumen and metal systems and specifically markets to commercial owners, facility managers and property managers. Its current business profile shows 4.9/5 from 47 reviews.

What property managers should ask before putting one on the vendor list

For a commercial portfolio, I'd ask each contractor for:

1. Three current property-management references — preferably managers who use them repeatedly rather than one-off owners.
2. A sample inspection/report package showing photos, deficiencies, priorities and recommended repairs.
3. Emergency-response terms — actual after-hours response time, not just “24/7.”
4. Preventive-maintenance pricing and whether inspections are documented roof-by-roof.
5. Manufacturer certifications and warranty options for the systems you actually have.
6. COI, workers' comp, safety program and subcontractor requirements.
7. Tenant-disruption procedures for occupied retail, multifamily and office properties.
8. References for roofs similar to yours—especially TPO/EPDM/modified bitumen if you're managing low-slope commercial buildings.

That last point matters: a company can be excellent at residential shingles and still be a poor fit for a 100,000-square-foot TPO portfolio.

If you tell me which Texas market(s) you cover—e.g. Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Waco, or statewide—and roughly how many commercial properties/roof squares are in the portfolio, I can narrow this to 5–10 family/local contractors with the strongest property-manager references, including contact information and manufacturer certifications.
