How to check Newsome's Construction LLC on 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
- The registry name, the contract name and the truck lettering should all agree; the status should be active.
- Open the registry and search by license number first, business name second.
- Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.

The housing stock in Muncie
The median home in Muncie was built in 1962, so the typical house is 64 years old. Before 1980, 72.6 percent of the housing stock went up. Set a typical $10,012 asphalt job beside the $92,000 median home value and the roof comes to 11 percent. That is long enough for roughly 3 asphalt roof cycles, so replacement, not first install, is the usual job.
