- Start the lookup with the license number; use the business name only if the number fails.
- Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
- Match the name, the city and the status. The record should read active or in good standing.
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
