Algae-resistant architectural shingles or standing seam metal (metal typically lasting 40-70 years in Texas) tend to outperform standard 3-tab asphalt given Katy's 46" of annual rainfall, since both shed water well and resist moss/algae growth better.
Texas doesn't require a general statewide roofing license, though individual cities or counties may have their own local licensing or permit requirements. Check with Katy's permit office directly to confirm what applies locally.
