Short answer: As of September 2026, the five highest-scoring roofing contractors in the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX metro on The Roofing Brief Contractor Score are Results Roofing (96.0), Touchstone Roofing (90.4), Kidd Roofing (89.1), Elevated Roofing (88.7), Arrowhead Roofing (88.3). Each is certified by a manufacturer whose register we checked by hand, each rating has been tested against a source outside that register, and nobody bought a place on this page.
The Roofing Brief scored 38 certified roofing contractors serving the Dallas metro on a published, reproducible formula, then researched each of the top five individually to confirm its record. Dallas-Fort Worth is the hail capital of this programme. Its ten-year NOAA record holds 2,020 hail reports, 283 of them two inches or larger, and $6.1 billion in reported property damage, more than ten times the total of any other metro we have profiled. June 2023 alone brought a 5-inch stone at Mansfield on 12 June and a 5.9-inch stone at Sanger three days later. Texas issues no roofing licence, so in the market that most needs a vetting system there is no state one, and after every major storm the region fills with out-of-town crews. The certified field is deep in compensation: 38 contractors, 16 at President’s Club, and a metro mean rating of 4.90. Results Roofing of Carrollton leads with 1,802 registry reviews at a perfect 5.0.
Hail, codes and what they cost a Dallas homeowner
With no state licence, the City of Dallas is where the paperwork starts. Its construction code administration chapter exempts re-roofing of a single-family or two-family dwelling from permit only when the work is worth $500 or less, which means every real roof replacement needs a permit, and contractors pulling permits must be registered with the city. Suburban cities across Collin, Denton and Tarrant counties run their own permit and registration systems. Ask for the permit number, and treat a contractor who suggests skipping it as a contractor to skip.
Hail size here justifies a different roof specification. Of the 2,020 hail reports over the decade, 1,662 were an inch or larger, and March is the peak month, followed by April and May. A UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated shingle, or a stone-coated or heavy-gauge metal roof, is worth pricing on every quote, and it is worth asking your insurer what premium credit it gives for one and what documentation it wants at installation. Keep the product certificate and photographs of the installation with your policy papers.
Tornadoes add to the hail. On 20 October 2019 an EF3 tornado formed in northwest Dallas and tracked east-northeast across the city, crossing Interstate 35E and damaging commercial and residential areas along its path; it became the costliest tornado on record in Texas, at an estimated $1.5 billion. On 25 May 2024 an EF3 with estimated winds of 165 mph struck homes near Celina in Collin County, and on 4 March 2025 straight-line winds tore roof decking from homes in Haltom City. 2023 was the busiest year in the record, with 459 severe reports.
The storm-chasing problem is real in this market. After a large hail event, door-to-door crews offer free inspections and ask homeowners to sign contingency agreements before an adjuster has visited. Texas law lets you cancel certain contracts signed at home within three days, but the safer course is not to sign anything until your insurer’s adjuster has produced a scope of loss. Every contractor below has a permanent Dallas-Fort Worth address; ask any other company for one, and check how long it has been at it.

What they actually do. Residential roof replacement and storm damage work across Dallas-Fort Worth.
Why it ranks here. President’s Club with a perfect 5.0 across 1,802 registry reviews, scoring 96.0 and leading by 5.6 points, the strongest record in a very strong field.
Best fit for: North Dallas, Carrollton and Denton County homeowners who want the deepest local review record.
What we would want clarified. Founded in 2019, so its record is built on volume over a short period. Ask how warranty claims are handled if a roof it installed in the busy 2023 season develops a problem. We publish this because a ranking that only prints the flattering findings is an advertisement, not an assessment.

Best fit for: Frisco, Plano, McKinney and Prosper homeowners.
What we would want clarified. The certification registry lists the business as Touchstone Construction LLC while its BBB profile and website use Touchstone Roofing, LLC, so confirm the entity on the contract.

What 5.9 inch hail does to a Dallas roof
Aggregate hail counts tell you very little about a specific roof. These are the individual events: every severe-weather report logged by the National Weather Service across the 11 counties of the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX statistical area over ten years, with the dates, the stone sizes and the towns they landed on. Over that decade the metro logged 2,020 hail reports, 923 severe thunderstorm and high wind reports and 96 tornadoes. Reported property damage from hail, severe wind and tornado over that decade totalled $6.1 billion; flood and winter-storm losses are counted separately and are not included.
The biggest hail to fall on Dallas in a decade
| Date | Stone size | Reported near | County |
|---|---|---|---|
| 15 June 2023 | 5.9 in | Sanger | Denton |
| 11 April 2016 | 5.25 in | Wylie | Collin |
| 12 June 2023 | 5.0 in | Mansfield | Tarrant |
| 1 April 2024 | 4.5 in | Keeter | Wise |
| 24 March 2019 | 4.5 in | Allen | Collin |
| 11 April 2016 | 4.25 in | Wylie | Collin |
The largest stone on record for this metro fell on 15 June 2023 near Sanger, measured at 5.9 inches. That is grapefruit sized. Stones that big destroy asphalt shingles outright, dent metal, crack tile and routinely total roofs across whole neighbourhoods.
Wind. The strongest thunderstorm gust logged in the metro was 91 knots, about 105 mph, near Haltom City on 4 March 2025. Asphalt shingles begin lifting at roughly 67 mph when they are correctly nailed, and considerably below that when they are not.
Tornadoes. 96 tornadoes touched down in these counties over the decade, the strongest rated EF3 near Gribble on 20 October 2019.
What the National Weather Service wrote about it
The NWS logs a written account of each severe-weather episode. This is its description of the 4 March 2025 event near Haltom City, reproduced verbatim:
Damage to several homes was reported in Haltom City, including the partial loss of roof decking. Multiple large trees were snapped around 5 feet from the ground, and one tree was uprooted. A damage survey found straight line wind damage consistent with 105 mph winds along Wathall Rd between Field St and 377.
That account is the design case for a roof here, and it comes from the agency that recorded it rather than by a contractor selling the repair.
When it happens. Severe weather reports cluster in March (716), April (643), May (616). The worst years on record were 2023 (459), 2024 (419), 2025 (407). If you are scheduling non-urgent work in Dallas, the months outside that window are when crews are least stretched and least likely to be triaging emergency callouts ahead of your job.
Source: NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information, Storm Events Database, county-level detail files 2016 to 2025, filtered to the counties of this statistical area by The Roofing Brief. Damage figures are as reported to the NWS and undercount insured losses.
What to do with this. At 1,662 damaging-hail reports in ten years, impact resistance in Dallas is a specification question, not an upsell. Ask every contractor you shortlist to quote a UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated shingle alongside the standard option, and ask your insurer whether a Class 4 roof earns a premium discount, because many carriers offer one in high-hail territory.
What a Dallas homeowner should ask for in writing
There is no state roofing licence in TX. Texas does not issue or require a state roofing contractor licence. There is no state exam, no state licence number to check, and no state board that can discipline a roofer.
The Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (RCAT) runs a voluntary Licensed Roofing Contractor program requiring two years of Texas experience, a fixed business address, a business and safety exam and a roofing exam at 70% or better, and at least $300,000 general liability insurance for residential work or a $100,000 surety bond.
That absence is the most important fact on this page. Where a state issues no credential, a manufacturer certification that can be revoked is the only quality signal a homeowner can actually check, which is why this ranking is built on certification rather than star ratings.
Check here: RCAT licensed contractor lookup. Many Texas cities still require roofers to register with the municipality and pull a permit, so check with the city building department where the work will happen.
Four checks to run before you sign anything, in any state.
- Verify certification at the source. Use the GAF verification tool rather than trusting a badge image on a company website.
- Get the certificate of insurance from the insurer, not the contractor, and confirm general liability and workers compensation are both active on the day work starts.
- Confirm who pulls the permit. If a contractor asks you to pull it as the homeowner, that moves liability onto you. Decline.
- Get warranty terms in writing before any deposit, and check the manufacturer warranty being promised actually requires the certification tier the contractor holds.
The shape of the Dallas contractor market
38 certified roofing contractors serve the principal cities of the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX statistical area, of which 16 hold the top President’s Club tier. The pool carries 11,911 customer reviews between them at a mean rating of 4.903. The statistical area had a 2024 population of 8,344,032, a change of 9.24% against the 2020 census base, per the U.S. Census Bureau Vintage 2024 estimates.
How these Dallas rankings were produced
Every contractor in the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX pool was scored out of 100 on four published components: certification tier, a Bayesian adjusted rating, review depth and distance from the metro centre. In this metro that meant scoring 38 certified contractors, of whom 16 hold President’s Club standing and 20 Master Elite, against a metro mean rating of 4.903. The top five were then researched individually against Better Business Bureau records, state licence registers and manufacturer directories. Anything unflattering that research surfaced appears above alongside the rest, and no company bought its position.
The full method, the weightings, what the GAF certification tiers actually mean, who is eligible to be ranked and what we do not claim are all set out on our roofer ranking methodology page.

What was the worst hailstorm in Dallas in the last ten years?
The largest hailstone logged by the National Weather Service in the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX statistical area between 2016 and 2025 measured 5.9 inches, reported near Sanger on 15 June 2023. That is grapefruit sized. Stones that big destroy asphalt shingles outright, dent metal, crack tile and routinely total roofs across whole neighbourhoods.

Reported property damage from hail, severe wind and tornado over that decade totalled $6.1 billion; flood and winter-storm losses are counted separately and are not included.
When is the worst time of year for roof damage in Dallas?
Severe-weather reports in the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX statistical area cluster in March, April, May, on the NOAA record for 2016 to 2025. Booking non-urgent roof work outside those months usually means shorter lead times, because local crews are not simultaneously triaging storm callouts.
Do roofers need a licence in TX?
Texas does not issue or require a state roofing contractor licence. There is no state exam, no state licence number to check, and no state board that can discipline a roofer. The Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (RCAT) runs a voluntary Licensed Roofing Contractor program requiring two years of Texas experience, a fixed business address, a business and safety exam and a roofing exam at 70% or better, and at least $300,000 general liability insurance for residential work or a $100,000 surety bond.
What should I check before hiring a roofer in Dallas?
Many Texas cities still require roofers to register with the municipality and pull a permit, so check with the city building department where the work will happen.
