About
Ripcord Roofing operates from 3418 Endicott Ct in Wylie, Texas 75098, which is in Collin County. The BBB profile gives the legal entity as Ripcord General Contracting LLC doing business as Ripcord Roofing, with a date of incorporation of 18 March 2024 and BBB accreditation since 23 September 2024. Rebecca L. Fagan and Brett Fagan are named on that record as the owners.
The company's own site describes it as a veteran owned and operated roofing and construction business serving DFW, North Texas and parts of East Texas, and states that both owners are U.S. Army veterans. That military service is the company's own statement. BBB independently confirms the Fagans as owners but not the veteran status, and we found no federal veteran-owned small business certification for it. Services run from residential shingle and metal roofing through commercial flat and TPO systems, leak and storm repair, roof inspections, insurance claim help, gutters, siding, windows, fencing and painting. The site names Owens Corning shingles as its main product, and the company holds a profile in the Owens Corning contractor directory.
On the address, 3418 Endicott Ct is a residential street address in Wylie that also carries Rebecca Fagan Bookkeeping LLC and previously carried an unrelated lighting business. That pattern is consistent with an owner-run business operating from a home office rather than a yard or warehouse, which for a two-person roofing company is normal and not a mark against it. Ripcord also appears on the City of Frisco contractor register, registration no. R25-1702, first registered in 2025. Frisco publishes no status or expiry for these registrations, so ask the company to confirm its registration is current.

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.

RegionWylie
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 Ripcord Roofing licensed by the state?
Texas does not license roofing contractors at state level, so no Texas roofer holds a state roofing license. Verify insurance instead. Ask for a certificate of general liability and workers compensation insurance and confirm it directly with the issuing agent.
What is the company's legal name?
BBB records the legal entity as Ripcord General Contracting LLC, trading as Ripcord Roofing. The Frisco register entry reads Ripcord Roofing LLC. Ask for the entity name on the contract and check that it matches the insurance certificate.
Is the veteran ownership verified?
It is the company's own statement on its website, where it says both owners are U.S. Army veterans. BBB confirms Brett and Rebecca Fagan as the owners but does not address military service, and we found no federal veteran-owned small business certification. Ask the company directly if it matters to you.
Where is the business actually located?
3418 Endicott Ct, Wylie, TX 75098, in Collin County. It is a residential street address that also carries a bookkeeping company registered to one of the owners. That points to a home office rather than a commercial yard, which is normal for a small owner-run roofing company.
Is it a member of RCAT?
A search of the RCAT directory returned no record for this company. RCAT membership is voluntary, so a missing record is not a negative. Note too that plain RCAT membership and the separately earned RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor credential are different things.
What does Owens Corning Preferred Contractor mean?
It is a manufacturer network tier that gives the contractor access to certain extended product and workmanship warranties. It is not a government license. The company states the status on its own site and does hold a profile in the Owens Corning contractor directory. Check the current tier on Owens Corning's own locator before you rely on it.
How new is the company?
BBB gives a date of incorporation of 18 March 2024, so the entity is about two years old as of 2026. With a young company, pay close attention to the workmanship warranty terms, who honors them, and whether the manufacturer warranty is registered in your name.
What should a Collin County homeowner know about hail?
Wylie, Frisco and the rest of Collin County sit in the North Texas hail belt. Class 4 impact-rated shingles are tested to resist hail better than standard shingles, and many Texas insurers offer a premium discount for a Class 4 roof. Ask your carrier what discount applies before choosing a product.
Should I file a hail claim?
Weigh the repair estimate against your wind and hail deductible, which in Texas is frequently a percentage of the dwelling coverage rather than a flat sum. Get the damage documented first. Texas law forbids a contractor from waiving or absorbing your deductible, so treat any such offer as a red flag.
Who pulls the permit in Frisco?
Permitting is handled city by city in Texas, since there is no statewide code enforcement. Frisco requires a contractor to be on the city register before it issues permits or inspections. Put in writing that the contractor pulls the permit and schedules the inspection.
