Checking ProShield Roofing against the Georgia record
Georgia roofing-license requirements are not yet covered by our verification program — confirm licensing and insurance with your city or county building department
- Search the registry by number, then by name, because spellings differ between sources.
- Write down the expiry and make sure it outlasts the job.
- Compare the registry name with the name on the contract, and read the status line.
- Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
