Checking DM Roof Restorations against the Iowa record
what Iowa requires is state contractor registration, not a roofing-specific license; permit requirements come from your city or county
- Open the registry and search by license number first, business name second.
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
- Match the name, the city and the status. The record should read active or in good standing.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
