Checking High Tide Roofing & Restoration against the North Carolina record
North Carolina licenses general contractors, not roofers specifically, and only for jobs over $40,000 — the Licensing Board for General Contractors (LBGC) publishes a public search, but many legitimate smaller roofing jobs fall under the threshold and involve no license at all Official lookup: NC Licensing Board for General Contractors (LBGC) search.
- Write down the expiry and make sure it outlasts the job.
- Go to the registry and search by license number first, business name second.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
- Match the name, the city and the status. The record should read active or in good standing.
