Public Records Check
- Missing License Our automated search didn't find a license on file for General Roofing of Anchorage with the Alaska state licensing board. That doesn't mean the company is unlicensed. A license can be held under a different business name, registered too recently for us to match, or filed in a way our search didn't catch. We recommend confirming directly with the Alaska state licensing board or asking the contractor for their license number.
- Missing Corporation Our automated search didn't find a registered business entity for General Roofing of Anchorage with the Alaska Secretary of State. That doesn't mean the company isn't legitimate. Many roofers operate legally as sole proprietorships, which don't require registration, and a registered business can be filed under a different name, formed in another state, or created too recently for us to match. To confirm how the business is structured, ask the contractor or search the Alaska Secretary of State directly.
- Residential Address General Roofing of Anchorage's listed address at 119 E 54th Ave, Anchorage, AK 99518 appears to be a residential address. This means the company operates from a real, locatable address rather than a mailbox or PO box, which can make it easier to reach them or resolve issues. Many roofers legitimately work from a home address, so this doesn't speak to the quality of their work, license, or insurance.
- 2 Credentials General Roofing of Anchorage holds these manufacturer certifications: Owens Corning Preferred, NRCA Membership - member since 2013. These show the company met a manufacturer's program requirements and may offer manufacturer-backed warranties, but they aren't independent quality audits. You can confirm current status with the manufacturer.
