About
Cisco Roofing is a small Garland based roofing contractor. Contractor licence and building permit records list it as Cisco Roofing Inc at 618 Forest Center Plaza, Garland, in Dallas County, which is the same address that appears against the company on the City of Frisco contractor register, and give Francisco Rico as the owner. The trading name comes from the owner's own first name rather than from the town of Cisco in Eastland County or from any technology company of the same name.
The company has almost no consumer facing web presence. We found no company website, no Google Business Profile, no BBB profile and no review platform listings for it. What does exist is a permit history: a small number of permitted residential jobs described as removing old roofs and reinstalling new shingles, consistent with a small owner operated shingle roofing crew rather than a large storm restoration outfit. 618 Forest Center Plaza is a light commercial plaza address in Garland shared with other small trade businesses.
On registration, Cisco Roofing appears on the City of Frisco contractor register, registration no. R25-1220, meaning 2025 is the year it first registered with the city. Frisco publishes no status or expiry for these registrations, so ask the company to confirm its registration is current, and because so little independent information exists about this business, ask for its certificate of general liability insurance and references before hiring.

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.

RegionGarland
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.
Is Cisco Roofing connected to the town of Cisco, Texas or to Cisco Systems?
No to both. The company is based at 618 Forest Center Plaza in Garland, in Dallas County, and permit records name the owner as Francisco Rico. The trading name is a shortening of the owner's first name. Cisco, Texas is a small town in Eastland County roughly two hours west and has nothing to do with this business.
Is Cisco Roofing licensed by the State of Texas?
No roofer in Texas is. Texas issues no state roofing license. What can be checked instead is city or county registration, current general liability and workers compensation insurance, and voluntary industry credentials. This company appears on the City of Frisco contractor register under registration no. R25-1220.
What does the Frisco registration number tell me?
It records that the company registered with the City of Frisco, and the R25 prefix means 2025 was the year it first registered. Frisco's register publishes only registration number, company name and address. There is no status field and no expiry date on it, so it does not tell you whether the registration is current today.
How do I check whether the registration is still valid?
Ask the company for the certificate of general liability insurance it has on file with Frisco. The city ties registration expiry to the expiry of the contractor's general liability policy, requires a minimum of $300,000 per occurrence with the city named as certificate holder, and issues no permits or inspections to a contractor whose registration has lapsed.
Is Cisco Roofing an RCAT member?
A search of the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas member directory returned no record for this company. RCAT membership is voluntary and many working roofers are not members, so this is not evidence against the company. It just means that particular check is unavailable.
What is the difference between an RCAT Member and an RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
A Member pays association dues. The Licensed Roofing Contractor credential, shown as CRRL, RRL or CRL, is earned separately through RCAT's own examination programme and attaches to a named individual. They are not equivalent, so if a contractor says RCAT, ask which of the two they hold.
Why is there so little information about this company online?
It has no website, no Google Business Profile, no BBB file and no review platform listings that we could find. That is common for small owner operated crews that work on referrals and subcontract volume rather than advertising. It is not proof of a problem, but it does mean you carry more of the vetting yourself.
What extra checks make sense with a company this hard to research?
Ask for three recent local addresses you can drive past, ask for the certificate of general liability insurance sent directly from the insurance agent with your property named as certificate holder, confirm who carries workers compensation for the crew, and avoid paying a large deposit before materials are delivered to your property.
Do hail resistant shingles make sense in this part of North Texas?
Yes, this is the hail corridor. A UL 2218 Class 4 impact rated shingle costs more up front but most major Texas homeowners insurers offer a premium discount for one. Check the discount with your own carrier first, then ask for the Class 4 option priced as a separate line on the estimate.
Who pulls the permit for a Frisco reroof?
The registered contractor should. Texas has no statewide building code enforcement, so permitting and inspection are set city by city, and Frisco will not issue permits or inspections to an unregistered contractor. Get it in writing that the contractor pulls the permit and meets the inspector, and never accept an offer to skip the permit.
