Checking Hausman Metal Works against the Missouri record
there is no state-level roofing license in Missouri; cities and counties set their own rules, so confirm local permits and ask any contractor for insurance certificates
- The registry name, the contract name and the truck lettering should all agree; the status should be active.
- Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
- An expiry before your finish date is a reason to ask questions.
- Start the lookup with the license number; use the business name only if the number fails.
