About
Firefighter Roofing, LLC is a Dallas Fort Worth roofing and exterior contractor with its office at 5332 Davis Blvd in North Richland Hills, Tarrant County. The City of Plano register of general contractors carries the company at that address with the phone number (817) 479-8999, which is the main number the company publishes on its own website. The BBB records the business as starting on 28 March 2016 and names Philip E. Perdue and Stacy R. Perdue as managing members.
The company's own site describes a full service residential and commercial operation: roof replacement, roof repair, roof inspections, gutters, siding, and interior and exterior painting. Materials it says it works in include asphalt shingle, metal, tile, slate, cedar shake, modified bitumen and TPO. It states manufacturer credentials from GAF, CertainTeed, IKO and Mule Hide, and it holds a GAF residential contractor listing under the North Richland Hills address. It is BBB Accredited with an A+ rating, accredited since 26 May 2017, which is verified directly on the BBB profile.
The name is a claim about who owns the business. The company's own About page says founder Philip Perdue spent thirteen years as a DFW area firefighter and that the staff includes current and former first responders and retired military. No independent source confirming that was found in this research, so it should be read as the company's own statement rather than a verified fact. Firefighter Roofing also publishes a Dallas address at 6060 N Central Expy Suite 584, which is a suite in a shared office building and should not be assumed to be a staffed branch.

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.

InsuranceNot verified by us (we hold no certificate for this company — ask them for a current COI before signing)
RCAT statusNot listed
City/county registration
Registered — Plano Check the register ↗Registered general contractor, City of Plano. Roofing companies register in Plano's general contractor category, which also covers concrete, demolition, fence, foundation, pool and sign work; it is a $100 annual registration renewed yearly, and the city's published requirements do not list proof of insurance or a bond. This company appears on the city's own list of registered contractors. The city publishes no certificate number or expiry date for this programme, so ask to see the registration itself before work starts.
RegionNorth Richland Hills
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.

Frequently asked
Is Firefighter Roofing really owned by a firefighter?
That is the company's own statement. Its About page says founder Philip Perdue was a DFW area firefighter for thirteen years and that the team includes current and former first responders and retired military. We found no independent source confirming it, so treat it as a company claim. The BBB profile does list Philip E. Perdue and Stacy R. Perdue as managing members.
Where is the company actually based?
Its office is at 5332 Davis Blvd in North Richland Hills, Tarrant County. It works across the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex, which is why it appears on the City of Plano contractor register despite not being a Plano company.
Does it have a Dallas office too?
The company publishes a Dallas address at 6060 N Central Expy Suite 584 with its own local number. That is a suite in a shared office tower rather than a yard or shop, so treat it as a Dallas contact point and ask which crews and which manager would actually run your job.
Does Texas license roofers?
No. There is no state roofing license in Texas, so no contractor here is state licensed. What you can verify is general liability and workers compensation insurance, city contractor registration, BBB standing and manufacturer credentials.
What does the BBB accreditation mean here?
The BBB profile for Firefighter Roofing shows Accredited status with an A+ rating and an accreditation date of 26 May 2017, and records the business as starting on 28 March 2016. Accreditation is a paid BBB programme with conduct standards, not a government licence.
Is the company an RCAT member?
A search of the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas directory did not return a record, so the honest answer is not found via RCAT search. RCAT membership is voluntary and its absence is not a mark against a contractor.
How should I read the manufacturer certifications?
The company holds a listing in GAF's residential contractor locator under its North Richland Hills address. Its CertainTeed, IKO and Mule Hide credentials are stated on its own website. Ask to see the current certificate for whichever manufacturer's shingle you are being quoted, because enhanced warranties depend on the installer's live certification at the time of installation.
Why does hail dominate roofing in this part of Texas?
North Texas sits in the hail corridor and severe hail is the main reason roofs get replaced from Fort Worth through Plano. Most replacements run through an insurance claim, and the roof's age and condition at the time of the storm strongly affect the settlement.
Are impact resistant shingles worth it?
Often yes in this region. Class 4 shingles are tested under UL 2218 against simulated hail impact and many Texas insurers give a premium credit for them. Ask for the Class 4 rating in writing and confirm the discount with your own insurer before you commit.
What should I ask before signing a storm damage contract?
Ask for the certificate of insurance direct from the insurer, a written scope with the exact shingle and underlayment, who pulls the permit in each city, the workmanship warranty length, and a clear statement of what happens if the insurance settlement comes in lower than the estimate. Do not sign anything that authorises work before the claim is settled unless you understand exactly what you are agreeing to.
