Checking Boulder Roofing and Gutters against 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
- Look at the expiration date and compare it with the dates in your contract.
- Start the lookup with the license number; use the business name only if the number fails.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
- Compare the registry name with the name on the contract, and read the status line.

The homes under these roofs
Half the homes in Boulder predate 1978; the typical house is about 48 years old. Against a median home value of $982,600, a $12,150 mid-range asphalt roof is 1 percent of the house. Before 1980, 54.3 percent of the housing stock went up. That is long enough for roughly 2 asphalt roof cycles, so replacement, not first install, is the usual job.
