Common questions about Bumble Roofing
Is Bumble Roofing legit?
We don't give verdicts on companies; here is what the public record shows. Bumble Roofing is a roofing franchise brand whose locations are independently owned and operated. It was founded in 2019. Ownership: Owned by Empower Brands since May 2023; Empower Brands is a portfolio company of private equity firm MidOcean Partners. We track 3 of its locations in Chicago, Houston and Dallas, 3 of them ranked. Its Better Business Bureau profile (Bumble Roofing of LA LLC) shows an A+ rating (checked October 2026). Before you sign, check the specific location: its license, the legal name on your contract, and who pulls the permit.
What do Bumble Roofing reviews show?
Reviews belong to each location. The 3 Bumble Roofing locations we track in Chicago, Houston and Dallas have 216 Google reviews between them, rated 5 stars (as of October 2026). Each location's page shows its review history by year and how often it replies to 1 and 2 star reviews. Its BBB profile lists complaints filed with the BBB.
Is Bumble Roofing a franchise?
Yes. Bumble Roofing sells franchises, and its locations are independently owned and operated (source: press release). The local owner's business holds the license, signs your contract and runs the crews, so experiences can differ a lot from one location to the next.
How do I check my local Bumble Roofing location?
Start with the location's page on this list: it shows the license we matched, permits in city records where available, and its Google review history. Then confirm the legal business name on your contract, and look that name up yourself: Illinois IDFPR license lookup (and the City of Chicago's contractor license search); Texas doesn't issue a state roofing license, so ask for proof of insurance and the permit number. Ask who pulls the permit and get the permit number. For a franchise, ask who owns the location and who backs the warranty.
