Checking Cason Construction against the Alabama record
Alabama roofing-license requirements are not yet covered by our verification program — confirm licensing and insurance with your city or county building department
- Compare the registry name with the name on the contract, and read the status line.
- Look at the expiration date and compare it with the dates in your contract.
- Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
- Start the lookup with the license number; use the business name only if the number fails.
