How to check 12 Stones Roofing and Solar on the Colorado record
Colorado does not issue a statewide roofing license. Licensing is handled by cities and counties, so the rules depend on where the roof is. Denver, for example, requires a city supervisor certificate and contractor license (Specialty Class D), but we don't yet check these local records
- Search the registry by number, then by name, because spellings differ between sources.
- Compare the registry name with the name on the contract, and read the status line.
- Request a current certificate of insurance from the insurer; licenses and insurance are checked separately.
- Write down the expiry and make sure it outlasts the job.
