Looking up Joliet Roofing in Illinois
roofing is a licensed trade in its own right in Illinois: the Roofing Industry Licensing Act puts it under the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR), whose roofing contractor licenses are all a matter of public record Official lookup: IDFPR license lookup.
- Start the lookup with the license number; use the business name only if the number fails.
- Look at the expiration date and compare it with the dates in your contract.
- 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.
