Roofers hold a Residential Builder or Maintenance & Alteration license from LARA, and the register does not say which trade a licensee works in. We matched this business by name and city against LARA's public licensee list. Don't take our word for it — check the public record yourself, and always ask for a current certificate of insurance before signing.

Checking Moore & Sons Roofing against the Michigan record
Michigan roofing-license requirements are not yet covered by our verification program — confirm licensing and insurance with your city or county building department
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
- Start the lookup with the license number; use the business name only if the number fails.
- Match the name, the city and the status. The record should read active or in good standing.
- Write down the expiry and make sure it outlasts the job.
Registry last checked October 2026; the license on file shows an expiration of 2028-05-31. A badge covers the license match only, not insurance or workmanship.

Michigan ranks only counties with 30 or more reports, and Kent County is not among them, so no density rank is shown.
