Roland’s Roofing reviews, BBB record and complaints

Roland’s Roofing has been in San Antonio since 1970, giving them over 50 years of experience. They’re BBB-accredited with a solid local reputation. The primary consideration is their traditional sales-driven quoting process — you’ll need to schedule an in-home inspection and meet with a sales representative before seeing any pricing.

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

Frequently asked questions about Roland’s Roofing

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 Roland’s Roofing quote is competitive, ours will confirm that. If there’s a significant gap, you’ll want to know about it before you sign.
Most San Antonio roofing companies invest heavily in advertising, commission-based sales teams, and corporate overhead. 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, 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.
