Rhino Roofers reviews, BBB record and complaints

Rhino Roofers has been BBB-accredited since 2023, with 3 complaints in the last 3 years. They were founded in 2020, making them one of the newer San Antonio roofing companies. Rhino subcontracts their installation work and employs commission-based sales representatives (1099 contractors per Indeed job listings). Their heavy investment in TV advertising, radio spots, a physical showroom, and branded vehicles all add overhead that gets passed through to the homeowner on every project.

We take a different approach — no sales team, no commissions, no overhead. Just your price, upfront, in 2 minutes.

Why Rhino Roofers charges more

Completed roof replacement by Roof Direct SA in San Antonio

Same Owens Corning shingles. 40-50% less.

No sales team

Rhino Roofers hires 1099 sales consultants earning $80,000–$120,000/year in commissions. That money comes from your quote. We have zero salespeople—you get your price via satellite.

No advertising overhead

Rhino’s job postings state they “invest heavily in branding, marketing, lead generation.” TV ads, billboards, and radio spots cost millions. That cost gets passed to you.

Same materials

Both companies install Owens Corning shingles with manufacturer-backed warranties. The shingles on your roof are identical. The only difference is what you pay.

Owner-operated

Daniel Cabrera has been replacing roofs in San Antonio for 16+ years using the same crews. No franchise fees, no corporate overhead, no middlemen.

Frequently asked questions about Rhino Roofers

Straight answers. No sales pitch.

Because a second number on a $10,000+ purchase takes 2 minutes. No appointment. No home visit. No sales pitch. Just your price for the same shingle options.

If your Rhino Roofers quote is competitive, ours will confirm that. If there’s a significant gap, you’ll want to know about it before you sign.
Rhino Roofers invests heavily in TV advertising, billboard campaigns, radio spots, and commission-based sales teams. Those costs get passed directly to the homeowner on every project.

We don’t have any of those expenses. Our pricing reflects the actual cost of materials, experienced labor, and a fair margin. That’s it.
Yes. Your warranty comes from the shingle manufacturer—Owens Corning, GAF, the same brands everyone uses. Same coverage, same protection, whether you pay us or anyone else.

We offer everything from 25-year to lifetime warranties depending on the shingle line you choose. The warranty protects your roof the same way regardless of what you paid for installation.
Yes. We are a San Antonio licensed roofer — Home Improvement Contractor License #HIC-26-00245, issued by the City of San Antonio Department of Development Services. We carry full general liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage.

Important note: Texas does not require a state roofing license — the TDLR does not regulate roofing contractors. Any company implying they have a “state license” is misleading you.

We’ve been serving San Antonio for 16 years.
No catch. We’ve been doing this for 16 years.

The catch with other companies is that you’re paying for things that have nothing to do with your roof: sales commissions (10-15% of your quote), national advertising campaigns, corporate overhead, and layers of management.

We eliminated all of that. The savings go directly to you.
Because we spend zero on TV commercials, radio spots, billboards, and branded truck wraps. That’s the entire model.

Every dollar we don’t spend on advertising is a dollar you don’t pay on your roof. Our customers find us through referrals, online comparisons, and neighbors who saved thousands.

Same shingles. Same warranties. Get your exact price in under 2 minutes—no appointment, no salesperson.
