What Ohio says: The Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board licenses only commercial electrical, HVAC, plumbing, hydronics and refrigeration; local building and health departments regulate residential contractors. Columbus licenses contractors itself under City Code ch. 4114 (columbus.gov Contractor Licenses page, read 2026-11-02): its Home Improvement Limited license lists residential roofing among its permitted scopes.

- Match the name, the city and the status. The record should read active or in good standing.
- Look at the expiration date and compare it with the dates in your contract.
- Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
