Which Austin Contractors Pulled The Most Roof Permits?

The 25 most frequent contractor names in the file, printed as the city records them. A name that matches a company on our roster by an exact normalized name and phone links to its profile. A name that does not is a company we have not assessed. Most of the top names are commercial and multifamily roofers.

Roster Companies In The Permit Record

5 of the 30 companies on our roster matched a permit contractor name, 14 permits between them. We accepted a match only where the normalized name is identical and the phone on the permit equals the company's own phone. Other pairs, such as a phone match under a different business name, were left out until a state filing confirms them.

How To Read This Data

We loaded 2,314 building permits issued since October 11, 2023 whose description contains "roof", kept those whose description reads as a re-roof, removed solar, rooftop equipment, new construction, accessory dwellings and interior remodels, and de-duplicated on permit number to reach 1,632. The contractor is the city's company-name field, free text typed by the applicant. The filter is a documented heuristic: a hand read of 15 kept rows found 2 that were not roof work, and a read of 25 rejected rows found none that was a clear re-roof. Both samples are our own and small.

The file covers permits the City of Austin issues; suburbs such as Round Rock, Cedar Park and Georgetown permit separately and are not here. It is not a measure of quality and not a ranking input.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Austin contractors pulled the most roof permits?

In the City of Austin file, which runs to October 9, 2026, the contractor name recorded most often was CRS Commercial Roof Specialists, Inc with 94 permits, then QUICK ROOFING (75) and Hentana Construction LLC (73). The table below lists 25 names. Volume is not quality.

Are these only house roofs?

No. The city's own class field marks the permits residential or commercial, and the commercial count is larger. The names at the top of the table are mostly commercial and multifamily re-roofers.

Is every Austin re-roof in this file?

No. We keep permits whose description names re-roof work. A single-family re-roof filed without a roof word in the description is not here, and a roofer that files under a sister company or a general contractor appears under that name. 25 of the 30 companies we assess did not match, and no match is never a zero.

How accurate is the filter?

It is a keyword rule. In a hand read of 15 random kept permits on 11 October 2026, 2 were not roof work (a multi-story addition and an insulation repair) and 3 more named roof replacement among other work. That is our own read of the descriptions, not an outside check, so treat each count as permits whose description names roof work.

Why is a roofer I know missing?

Its permits may be filed under another business name, in a suburb with its own permit office, or before October 2023. Contractor names are text typed by the applicant, so spelling variants of one company can split into two rows; we do not merge them by similarity.

Is the permit count a ranking input?

No. It is informational only, because a count measures volume inside one city in one window, not quality.

What was the busiest month for re-roof permits?

June 2024, with 96 permits.
