Don and Blake are both career firefighters and lifelong Texans. Melissa's population doubled from about 12,000 residents in 2019 to more than 24,000 by 2025 — one of the fastest-growing cities in the state. That growth is exactly what attracts storm-chaser sales crews: trucks with out-of-state plates show up the same afternoon after every hail line, collect deposits, and disappear when the work gets hard. Newer Melissa neighborhoods deserve a local, accountable roofer who's still here next hail season.

The fix was simple: run a roofing company the same way you run a firehouse. Show up when you say you will. Do the job right the first time. Be the person the Melissa homeowner can call at 8 PM if something's wrong. Our shop is on Custer Road in McKinney — 15 to 20 minutes south of Melissa on US-75 — so we're the fastest local response of any real roofer. Every Melissa inspection is done by one of the owners.

That's how a firefighter-owned Melissa roofing contractor holds a perfect 5.0 Google rating across 54 verified reviews with zero paid promotion. Melissa homeowners tell their neighbors.

Integrity on the roof

If your Melissa roof doesn't need work, we say so and leave. If it does, the report is written, itemized, and delivered — every time, whether you hire us or not.

Service to your neighbors

Same North Texas community we protect on the truck. When a hail line hits, we're already loaded up in McKinney — not driving in from Oklahoma.

Craftsmanship in writing

Written workmanship warranty on every Melissa roof, plus manufacturer material warranties. If it fails, we're the ones who show up — same phone number, same owners. We're still here next hail season.

Atlas Pinnacle Pristine — our Signature Shingle for Melissa

Fireman's Roofing is an Atlas Roofing certified contractor. When it's time to upgrade or replace a newer Melissa roof, the Atlas Pinnacle Pristine is our Signature Shingle — a Class 4 impact-resistant architectural shingle engineered for the exact hail and UV cycle your Melissa roof takes every year. Pinnacle Pristine qualifies for insurance-premium discounts of 20 to 30% on most Texas policies, and it's often a smart upgrade over builder-grade shingles at first replacement.

Melissa Weather & Roof Damage

A recent Melissa storm and hail timeline.

Melissa sits directly on the McKinney/Anna storm corridor — every North Texas hail line that hits those cities typically hits Melissa the same afternoon. Hail doesn't care that your Melissa roof is brand new.

September 21, 2025

Hen-egg hail — 2.00″ directly near Melissa

A significant regional hail event dropped stones up to 2.00 inches (hen-egg size) near Melissa — part of the same system that hit McKinney, Anna, and Princeton on the same afternoon. On a 2–5 year old Melissa architectural shingle roof that stone size is more than enough to bruise the mat and knock the granule layer clean. Texas one-year claim deadline expires September 21, 2026.

2025 Corridor Activity

McKinney recorded 12 hail reports within 10 mi

McKinney logged 12 hail reports within 10 miles of the city center in 2025 with the largest stone at 2.25 inches (tennis ball). Melissa sits inside that same 10-mile ring on US-75 — most Melissa neighborhoods took hits from the same systems. Many 1–5 year old Melissa roofs qualify for insurance replacement if inspected before the deadline.

2024 Tornado Activity

EF-1/EF-2 near Blue Ridge — Melissa storm corridor

Collin County saw multiple confirmed tornadoes in 2024 including EF-1 and EF-2 activity near Blue Ridge, roughly 12 miles northeast of Melissa. Straight-line wind damage on newer Melissa roofs (lifted shingles, torn underlayment, damaged ridge caps) is often missed on ground-level inspections — we check every 2024-era storm inspection specifically for it.

Texas Insurance Deadline

One year from date of loss

Texas gives Melissa homeowners one year from the date of loss to file a hail or wind claim. Miss the window and the claim is legally dead regardless of visible damage. If your Melissa home took a hit in September 2025, you have weeks to inspect and file.

Where We Roof in Melissa

Melissa neighborhoods we serve.

Melissa doubled in population from 2019 to 2024 — most of that growth in fast-built master-planned subdivisions along the US-75 corridor. Here are the neighborhoods where we take the most calls.

Master-Planned

Liberty

One of Melissa's flagship master-planned communities with rows of newer homes, ARC-approved shingle palettes, and hundreds of 1–5 year old roofs. Prime candidates for storm inspections and Class 4 upgrade conversations at first replacement.

Newer Master-Planned

Melissa Ridge

Newer master-planned Melissa community. Homes mostly 1–5 years old, still under manufacturer warranty for materials but exposed to Collin County's full hail cycle. Good candidates for both storm inspections and pre-warranty-lapse workmanship checks.

Active New-Construction

Wolf Creek Farms

Active Melissa new-construction neighborhood with rows of similar-age roofs. When a hail line rolls through, damage tends to be uniform across the subdivision — makes it easier to get insurance claims paid on the block.

Newer Communities

North & West Melissa Subdivisions

Melissa's continuing buildout on the north and west sides brings hundreds of new roofs online each year. Most are essentially brand-new — the calls we get are workmanship inspections (fastener patterns, flashing, ridge caps) before the builder warranty lapses, plus storm-damage documentation.

Full City · Established Stock

Central & East Melissa

Older Melissa neighborhoods on the east and central side of town have a mix of 15–30 year old roofs at or past end of life. Full replacements and hail claims dominate the work here alongside all the new-construction work.

Adjacent · Same Storm Path

McKinney-Adjacent Melissa

Melissa's southern neighborhoods share the same storm path as McKinney and Anna. The September 21, 2025 hen-egg hail event that hit McKinney also affected Melissa — we cover the entire US-75 corridor and catch damage from shared systems.

HOA note: Liberty, Melissa Ridge, Wolf Creek Farms, and Melissa's other master-planned communities have shingle-color and manufacturer approval rules. Fireman's Roofing pulls the sample, submits the ARC packet, and handles the approval so your Melissa roofing project doesn't stall waiting on the committee.

Roofing for Melissa's New Construction

What new-home Melissa owners overlook.

Melissa's population doubled from ~12,000 in 2019 to 24,490 in 2025 with ~20% annual growth. Nearly every Melissa home is 0–7 years old on builder-grade shingles — which changes what you actually need from a roofer.

Here are three things new-Melissa-home owners consistently miss. First: hail or storm damage to a nearly-new roof is still a valid insurance claim. A brand-new architectural shingle bruises the same way a 15-year-old one does — often more visibly because the granule pattern is uniform. If your Melissa home was hit by the September 21, 2025 hen-egg hail event that swept the entire US-75 corridor, that claim window is closing. A Class 4 impact-resistant upgrade at replacement pays for itself through 20–30% insurance premium discounts on the roof portion of your policy.

Second: fast-built subdivisions can carry workmanship issues. When a city doubles in five years, builders sometimes cut corners. Missing nails, poor step-flashing at chimneys and walls, exposed fasteners, and short ridge-cap laps are all things we find on 1–3 year old Melissa roofs from time to time. A free inspection catches them while the builder's workmanship warranty and manufacturer's material warranty may still apply — which turns a fix from an out-of-pocket cost into a covered warranty claim.

Third: get a pre-warranty-lapse inspection. Builder warranties typically run 1 to 10 years depending on the item. Before your Melissa builder's roofing workmanship warranty lapses, get a professional inspection so you can document any issues in writing. We photograph everything and give you a written report — whether we ever drive a nail on the roof or not.

How It Works

How your free Melissa roof inspection works.

Four steps, no pressure. Storm inspection or pre-warranty-lapse workmanship check — same free process either way.

Step 01

You call or book

Call (214) 325-7014 or submit the form. Most Melissa inspections schedule within 24 to 48 hours — often same-day given our McKinney shop is 15–20 minutes south.

Step 02

We climb the roof

Don or Blake climbs your Melissa roof, photographs condition, and checks flashing, gutters, ventilation, and fastener patterns — a workmanship check if your home is under 7 years old.

Step 03

You get an honest report

Written report with photos. If there is no damage, we tell you and leave. If there is, we walk through options with itemized pricing — including whether a Class 4 shingle upgrade makes sense on your Melissa home.

Step 04

We handle the claim

If insurance is involved, we meet the adjuster on the Melissa roof and re-document any denial until your claim is fully paid. If it's a builder-warranty issue, we help you document it for the builder.

Melissa Storm Damage Claims

Insurance claim help for Melissa storm damage.

We meet your adjuster on the Melissa roof.

A common mistake with newer Melissa roofs: homeowners assume that because the roof is 2 or 3 years old there is no way it has claim-worthy damage. Adjusters know better — hail bruises a new shingle just like an old one, and the granule loss is often more obvious on newer material. When you hire Fireman's Roofing, Don or Blake is the person meeting your adjuster on the roof, not a subcontracted claims specialist. We document the damage, cite Texas code, and re-document if the estimate underpays.

Two things every Melissa homeowner should know: the Texas one-year deadline from date of loss is non-negotiable. And at replacement, upgrading to Class 4 impact-resistant shingles (like the Atlas Pinnacle Pristine) qualifies you for insurance premium discounts of 20 to 30% off the roof portion of your policy — meaningful savings over the 20+ hail seasons your new Melissa roof is likely to face.

  • Owner meets adjuster on the roof — not a subcontractor
  • Re-inspect and dispute denials or scope shortfalls
  • Texas code compliance built into every scope

FAQ

Melissa roofing — frequently asked questions.

The questions we get on almost every Melissa inspection. Tap any question to expand.

My Melissa roof is only a few years old — can it have hail damage?
Yes. Hail doesn't care how old your roof is. A 1–5 year old Melissa roof hit by 1.00-inch+ stones carries the same bruising as a 15-year-old roof — often more visibly. The September 21, 2025 hen-egg hail affected the whole US-75 corridor including Melissa. We climb, photograph the impact marks, and help you file the claim.
Does my builder warranty cover storm damage?
Usually no. Builder warranties cover workmanship and materials — not weather. Storm and hail damage go to your homeowner's insurance instead. If we find a workmanship issue on inspection, we help you flag it with the builder while that warranty may still apply.
How much does roof repair or replacement cost in Melissa, TX?
Most Melissa roof replacements land between $8,500 and $18,000 for architectural shingle. Repair work runs $400 to $2,500. Class 4 upgrade adds ~10–15% to material cost. Written itemized quotes after a free inspection — no verbal estimates.
Do you do new-construction and warranty inspections in Melissa?
Yes — one of our most-requested services in Melissa. Nearly every home is 0–7 years old. We check flashing, ventilation, ridge caps, and fastener patterns and document any workmanship issues while your builder's warranty may still apply. Recommended before builder warranty lapses.
How do I know if my new Melissa shingles have hail damage?
On newer shingles, damage shows as small circular impact marks where the granule layer is knocked off exposing black asphalt. From the ground: granules in gutters, dents on gutter aprons and AC fins. We climb and photograph every impact so you have documentation.
Do you handle insurance claims for Melissa storm damage?
Yes. We document damage, meet the adjuster, and re-document if the claim is denied or underpaid. Texas gives homeowners one year from date of loss to file. Melissa's September 21, 2025 window is closing in the next few months.
Do you handle HOA approvals in Melissa's master-planned communities?
Yes. Liberty, Melissa Ridge, Wolf Creek Farms, and Melissa's other master-planned neighborhoods have shingle-color and manufacturer approval rules. We pull the sample, submit the ARC packet, and handle the approval.
Are you licensed and insured to roof in Melissa, TX?
Yes — full general liability, workers' comp, BBB A-rated, RCAT and CTRCA members. Insurance certificates handed to every Melissa homeowner before work starts.
How fast can you respond after a Melissa storm?
Emergency tarps and dry-in within 24 to 48 hours after a major North Texas storm. Our shop is on Custer Road in McKinney — 15 to 20 minutes south of Melissa on US-75. Fastest local response of any real roofer in the area.
Is a Class 4 impact-resistant shingle upgrade worth it in Melissa?
For most Melissa homeowners, yes — and the math is especially strong for newer homes that will see 20+ North Texas hail seasons. Class 4 shingles qualify for 20 to 30% off the roof portion of your policy with most Texas insurers. The discount often offsets the upgrade in 3–5 years.
