Checking A&M Home Services against the Indiana record
Indiana roofing-license requirements are not yet covered by our verification program — confirm licensing and insurance with your city or county building department
- Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
- Search the registry by number, then by name, because spellings differ between sources.
- Match the name, the city and the status. The record should read active or in good standing.
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
