Commercial roofing subcontractors in Dallas–Fort Worth.

No. Texas does not license roofing contractors or roofing crews at the state level, and there is no state exam or registration to hold. Some municipalities require a local registration or permit to pull work, but that is a city matter, not a trade license. This is why SubConnects does not ask crews for one and does not pretend to check it — a badge for a license that does not exist would be worth nothing. What we verify instead is insurance, confirmed directly with the carrier.

A crew uploads its certificate of insurance, and our team contacts the carrier or broker directly to confirm the policy is real, active, and covers the work. It is a phone call made by a person, not an uploaded PDF taken at face value and not a self-attested checkbox. A crew is not listed until that confirmation comes back.

They come out of search. A daily job demotes any crew whose coverage has expired, and the search query itself re-checks for live, unexpired proof at the moment it runs — so a crew whose policy lapsed overnight is gone before the daily job has caught up. You cannot find and hire an uninsured crew through the directory.

The commercial flat systems that dominate Dallas–Fort Worth industrial and retail work — TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, and built-up roofing — plus standing seam and exposed-fastener metal, asphalt shingle, and specialty work including slate, tile, coatings, and spray polyurethane foam. Crews list the systems they actually run, and you can filter the directory by system so you are not calling a TPO crew about a metal retrofit.

We are not a staffing agency, and that is the distinction that actually matters: we employ nobody, we are nobody's employer of record, and we take no cut of what you pay a crew. No markup on their labor, no per-hire fee, no commission. You contract with the crew directly at whatever the two of you agree. What you pay us for is the verification and the platform. Job board is the fairer word for part of what we run, and we would rather own it than dodge it — but neither of ours is open. A contractor's posting is visible only to crews that already cleared verification, and is never public or indexed. The public roofing-jobs board runs the other way round: verified crews hiring individual roofers. Roofers can also list themselves for crew leaders to find. One thing to be plain about: we verify companies, not people. A crew's insurance is confirmed with its carrier by telephone. An individual roofer's background, qualifications and right to work are not checked by us, and we do not claim they are — that is between them and whoever hires them.

It's a closed one, and the differences are the whole point. Only a verified, subscribed contractor can post, and a posting is only ever visible to crews that already cleared verification — nothing about a contractor's posting is public and nothing is indexed. (The public roofing-jobs board is the other direction entirely: crews hiring individual roofers. It never shows contractor work.) Crews bid blind: they see how many others have responded, never what anyone bid, and each crew gets one proposal it revises rather than a bid it keeps cutting. Your company name stays hidden until you award, so nobody can take the job off-platform or work you directly. And we take nothing off the price either way.

Contractors pay $300 a month for platform access — search, inquiries, posting work to verified crews, and engagement tracking. Pay for a year up front instead and it is $3,240, a 10% discount that works out at $270 a month and saves you $360 over the year. Both give identical access, and either way you are charged only after you pass verification. There is no per-hire fee, no commission, and no cut of what you pay the crew. Crews join free; their only optional charge is a $19 per month jobs-and-payments CRM.
