Looking up Klaus Roofing in Colorado

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

1. Match the name, the city and the status. The record should read active or in good standing.
2. Write down the expiry and make sure it outlasts the job.
3. Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
4. Search the registry by number, then by name, because spellings differ between sources.
