Public Records Check
- Registration-Based Connecticut doesn't license roofing contractors; instead it requires a statewide contractor registration. We treat this check as met rather than penalise it, but we haven't independently verified this company's registration - confirm it directly with the state before hiring.
- Registered Corporation Dzen Commercial Roofing's registered name carries a corporate suffix (LLC or Inc), but we have not matched it to a filing on the Connecticut Secretary of State. You can confirm how the business is registered, and its current status, directly with the Connecticut Secretary of State.
- Business Address Dzen Commercial Roofing's listed address at 74 Ranney St, Hartford, CT 06108 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.
- 3 Credentials Dzen Commercial Roofing holds these manufacturer certifications: Owens Corning Preferred, Johns Manville Peak Advantage - Peak, Carlisle Perfection Award. 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.
- Okay Ratings Across the platforms we identified for Dzen Commercial Roofing (Google, Yelp, the Better Business Bureau), the blended average is 2.9 out of 5, which we label Okay. This is a plain average of public customer ratings, not a RooferWatch score. Averages like this can be pulled down by a few reviews or a single dispute, so treat it as a starting point and read the underlying reviews for context.
We verified 4/5 public records for Dzen Commercial Roofing. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.

A reviewer reports that Dzen Residential Roofing was contracted to replace an entire roof with plywood but failed to complete the work as specified. According to the reviewer, the company covered the original cedar roof section with asphalt shingles instead of replacing it with plywood. Years later, the reviewer experienced water damage to walls, doors, and ceilings. When owner Dean Pinto inspected the roof and confirmed the incomplete work, he reportedly declined responsibility, citing an expired warranty despite the original contract specifying full replacement. The reviewer states they hired another contractor, J.P. Carroll, to complete the job at half Dzen's quoted price and describes that work as high-quality.
