Checking Peak Roofing and Home Solutions against the Louisiana record
Louisiana roofing-license requirements are not yet covered by our verification program — confirm licensing and insurance with your city or county building department
- The registry name, the contract name and the truck lettering should all agree; the status should be active.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
- Write down the expiry and make sure it outlasts the job.
- Start the lookup with the license number; use the business name only if the number fails.
