How to check Strictly Roofing & Seamless Gutters/SRS Supply Co. on the Iowa record
there is no roofing-specific license in Iowa — contractors carry a state contractor registration, and permits are handled locally by city or county
- Look at the expiration date and compare it with the dates in your contract.
- Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
- The registry name, the contract name and the truck lettering should all agree; the status should be active.
- Go to the registry and search by license number first, business name second.
