Checking Superior Roofing & Construction against the Missouri record
Missouri has no statewide roofing license or registration — requirements live at the city and county level, so check your local permit office and ask the roofer for proof of insurance
- Open the registry and search by license number first, business name second.
- The registry name, the contract name and the truck lettering should all agree; the status should be active.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
