Looking up Bone Dry Roofing in Ohio
Ohio roofing-license requirements are not yet covered by our verification program — confirm licensing and insurance with your city or county building department
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
- Search the registry by number, then by name, because spellings differ between sources.
- Compare the registry name with the name on the contract, and read the status line.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.

Who lives under these roofs
Half the homes in Dayton predate 1951; the typical house is about 75 years old. Before 1980, 85.8 percent of the housing stock went up. Against a median home value of $93,200, a $10,237 mid-range asphalt roof is 11 percent of the house.
