What licenses and insurance should my roofer have?
It is crucial to verify your contractor! I remember searching online for Roofing Contractors in Duncan, BC and cross comparing with external directory sites, and it saves a lot of stress! Firstly, check with your local authority, if they have the correct license to operate. They also need general liability insurance, as well as worker's compensation insurance, in case anyone is injured. Get actual copies of the documents and review the policy numbers.

I'm about to hire a roofer, and I want to make sure they are legit. What licenses and insurance should my roofer have? I've heard horror stories about homeowners getting stuck with the bill if a worker gets injured on the job, so I am being extra careful. Any tips on verifying licenses and insurance? What should I look for in the documentation?
It's interesting how much responsibility falls on the homeowner to ensure that contractors are properly licensed and insured. You would think that there would be some kind of centralized system or registry that makes it easier to verify this information, but it is often up to the average person to check for themselves. This is very stressful for most people..
I couldn't agree more. Vetting your contractor is the single most important step in the process. When I was looking for Roofing Contractors in Duncan, BC, I found that cross-referencing online reviews with external directories was a lifesaver. cookie clicker
