About Lafferty Roofing & Construction
Miles Lafferty has been running this shop for over thirty years, which in Texarkana terms means he's seen every hail cycle, every tornado season, and every wave of out-of-town contractors who show up after a storm and disappear before the warranty matters. His family is part of the operation, and the business has stayed rooted in the same Texarkana footprint through all of it.
Texas doesn't require a state-level roofing license, so what you're really evaluating with a Texas roofer is the BBB file and the insurance documentation. Lafferty's BBB record is clean, with no complaints on file. That's not a given in a storm-heavy market where complaint patterns can tell you a lot about how a contractor handles the call-back.
The company does both shingle and metal work, and the project documentation on their website runs through early 2025 with jobs across the Texarkana area and into southern Arkansas and northwest Louisiana. Metal roofing shows up as a genuine specialty, not just a checkbox. If you're on the Texas side of the line, that breadth reflects a crew that works a real cross-state footprint rather than a padded service-area list.
One thing to settle on the first call: if your property sits in Oklahoma, Lafferty's registration status with the Oklahoma Construction Industries Board belongs in the conversation before anything gets signed. Oklahoma requires a separate CIB roofing registration for contractors working there, and it's the kind of detail that's easy to overlook until it matters.
Call Lafferty directly, ask for Miles, and ask whether they've done recent work in your zip code. Thirty-three years in one market is a short conversation that tells you a lot.
