How to check Gilbert & Sons Roofing and Stucco INC on the New Mexico record
New Mexico roofing-license requirements are not yet covered by our verification program — confirm licensing and insurance with your city or county building department
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
- Search the registry by number, then by name, because spellings differ between sources.
- Write down the expiry and make sure it outlasts the job.
- Compare the registry name with the name on the contract, and read the status line.
