Looking up Sure Seal Contractors in Indiana
Indiana roofing-license requirements are not yet covered by our verification program — confirm licensing and insurance with your city or county building department
- Look at the expiration date and compare it with the dates in your contract.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
- The registry name, the contract name and the truck lettering should all agree; the status should be active.
- Search the registry by number, then by name, because spellings differ between sources.
