About
Big Tex Roofing & Construction is a Dallas-Fort Worth roofing contractor that operates from a post office box in Red Oak, in Ellis County, rather than a public storefront. Its BBB file lists a Red Oak PO Box as the mailing address and names Jose Rodriguez as the business contact and Eddie Parras as the customer contact. The company registered with the City of Frisco in order to pull permits there. It is not based in Frisco, but Frisco appears in its own published service list.
The company organizes itself as a set of numbered branches rather than a single office. Each branch on its locations page has a named representative, a direct phone line and a company email address, covering territory from Oak Cliff and East Dallas out to Rockwall, Royse City, Kaufman, Midlothian, Waxahachie, Arlington, Grand Prairie and the northern suburbs in Collin and Denton counties. Two of those branches list Frisco in their territory. On its own site the firm describes several decades of residential roofing work in the Metroplex.
Alongside residential re-roofing it lists commercial systems: single-ply membrane, built-up roofs, metal roof systems, roof coatings and garden (green) roofs, plus steep-slope work in shingle, slate and tile. It also offers siding, fencing, framing, painting, room and home additions, and remodeling, and advertises free roof estimates and inspections. The company is not BBB accredited and BBB states it does not have enough information to issue a rating.

Insurance & credential verification
Texas does not issue a state roofing license, so we verify companies the way homeowners actually can: confirming insurance coverage, checking RCAT (Roofing Contractors Association of Texas) status, and checking city or county registration where the local jurisdiction requires one. Every credential below links to the actual issuing organization's own public lookup — don't just take our checkmark for it. Always ask for a current certificate of insurance before signing any contract.

RegionRed Oak
Confirm this yourself: ask the company for their certificate of insurance (COI). Note that RCAT's Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is earned and held by a named individual at a company, not by the business itself, which is why we name that person above where we know it; Texas issues no company roofing license at all. RCAT and NTRCA status can be checked in their own public directories (RCAT, NTRCA) — use the "Licensed"/"Accredited" filter to see more than plain membership. GAF's contractor verification tool and Owens Corning's Texas locator confirm those tiers directly; CertainTeed doesn't offer a comparable self-serve lookup, so ask to see that certificate in person. BBB accreditation and rating are on bbb.org. Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly. Corpus Christi's STAR program has its own online contractor registry — for any other city or county registration claim, confirm directly with that jurisdiction's permit office.
Does Texas license roofing contractors at the state level?
No. Texas has no state roofing license, so no roofer here can honestly claim a state licence for roofing work. Your practical checks are a current certificate of general liability and workers compensation insurance sent directly from the insurer, any voluntary trade credential such as RCAT, and the contractor registration the city requires before it will issue a permit.
Is Big Tex Roofing & Construction registered with the City of Frisco?
Yes. It appears on the City of Frisco contractor register with registration number FRI-R26-0025. Frisco publishes the registration number and the year of registration but does not publish an expiry date, so treat the register as a point-in-time record and confirm current standing with the city before work starts.
Is this company a member of the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas?
A search of the RCAT member directory did not return a record for this company. RCAT membership is voluntary and many capable roofers are not members, so absence is not a mark against a contractor. It simply means there is no RCAT record to lean on as part of the trust picture.
Where is the company actually based?
It works from a post office box in Red Oak, in Ellis County, south of Dallas. There is no public street address in its own listings or its BBB file. The Frisco registration is a permit registration, not a Frisco office.
Which parts of the Metroplex does it cover?
Its own locations page divides the Metroplex into numbered branches covering Oak Cliff, Plano, Prosper, Frisco, Allen, McKinney, Lancaster, DeSoto, North Dallas, Irving, Las Colinas, East Dallas, Midlothian, Waxahachie, Rowlett, Rockwall, Royse City, Kaufman, Red Oak, Ferris, Farmers Branch, Carrollton, Grapevine, Lewisville, Flower Mound, Little Elm, Lake Dallas, Argyle, Arlington and Grand Prairie.
What are Class 4 impact-resistant shingles and do they matter in Frisco?
Class 4 is the top rating in the UL 2218 steel ball impact test. Collin and Denton counties sit in the part of North Texas that takes the most damaging hail in the country, so a Class 4 laminate is the common upgrade here. Many Texas carriers offer a premium discount for a documented Class 4 roof, and you should ask your agent for the discount amount in writing before you pay the upgrade.
Does hail damage always mean a full roof replacement?
No. Adjusters look at the density of bruises or fractured mat per test square, not just whether hail fell. Light hail often leaves granule loss that shortens roof life without meeting the threshold for replacement. Get an independent inspection with photographs and a written scope, and be wary of anyone who promises a full replacement before an adjuster has been on the roof.
What should a Frisco homeowner ask before signing a roofing contract?
Ask for the certificate of insurance emailed from the insurance agent rather than handed over as a PDF, ask who pulls the City of Frisco permit and whether it is included in the price, ask for the exact shingle line and impact rating in writing, ask whether decking replacement is priced per sheet and at what rate, and ask what the workmanship warranty covers and for how long.
Is the company BBB accredited?
No. BBB shows a file for the company opened in January 2014 but records it as not accredited, and states it does not have sufficient information to issue a letter rating.
Does it handle commercial and flat roofs as well as houses?
Yes. Its services page lists single-ply membrane, built-up roofs, metal roof systems, roof coatings and garden roofs on the commercial side, alongside steep-slope shingle, slate and tile work for residential clients.
