Star Roofing & Siding

Checking Star Roofing & Siding against the South Dakota record

South Dakota roofing-license requirements are not yet covered by our verification program — confirm licensing and insurance with your city or county building department

1. Start the lookup with the license number; use the business name only if the number fails.
2. The registry name, the contract name and the truck lettering should all agree; the status should be active.
3. Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
4. An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
