How to check Hennessey Roofing 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
- Open the registry and search by license number first, business name second.
- Write down the expiry and make sure it outlasts the job.
- Match the name, the city and the status. The record should read active or in good standing.
- Have the insurer or agent send the certificate of insurance to you, since a license says nothing about coverage.
