Checking Knight Eagle Contracting Group, Inc. against the Iowa record
Iowa's requirement is state contractor registration — roofing carries no separate license, and permits are handled by your city or county
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
- Compare the registry name with the name on the contract, and read the status line.
- Search the registry by number, then by name, because spellings differ between sources.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
