Public Records Check
- Missing License Our automated search didn't find a license on file for Jim Brown and Sons Roofing with the Arizona 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 Arizona state licensing board or asking the contractor for their license number.
- Registered Corporation Jim Brown and Sons Roofing's registered name carries a corporate suffix (LLC or Inc), but we have not matched it to a filing on the Arizona Secretary of State. You can confirm how the business is registered, and its current status, directly with the Arizona Secretary of State.
- Business Address Jim Brown and Sons Roofing's listed address at 5537 N 59th Ave, Glendale, AZ 85301 appears to be a business 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 Jim Brown and Sons Roofing holds these manufacturer certifications: CertainTeed ShingleMaster, TAMKO Pro Gold. 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.
- Good Ratings Across the platforms we identified for Jim Brown and Sons Roofing (Google, Yelp, the Better Business Bureau), the blended average is 4.4 out of 5, which we label Good. This is a plain average of public customer ratings, not a RooferWatch score. A solid average reflects past customers' experiences, not a guarantee of yours, so read the underlying reviews and weigh them yourself.
We verified 4/5 public records for Jim Brown and Sons Roofing. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.

Yelp
Customer reviews of JBS Roofing present mixed experiences. Several reviewers report positive outcomes, describing professional service, punctual crews, thorough cleanup, fair pricing, and good communication. Some customers praise the company's honesty in identifying localized repairs rather than recommending unnecessary work, and note that neighbors have complimented completed jobs. However, other reviewers describe significant frustrations. One customer reports a 15-day project with multiple delays, incomplete work requiring supervisor callbacks, poor workmanship on specific sections, and an unsatisfactory driveway repair by a subcontractor. Another reviewer experienced 27 days of poor communication before canceling a contract. Additional complaints include a salesman's unprofessional behavior during an estimate and an unexpected charge for facia board replacement. One customer expressed concern about their contact information being shared with a solar company, though the company's president responded denying the affiliation.
