Public Records Check
- Missing License Our automated search didn't find a license on file for A. Parker Contracting with the Delaware 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 Delaware state licensing board or asking the contractor for their license number.
- Missing Corporation Our automated search didn't find a registered business entity for A. Parker Contracting with the Delaware 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 Delaware Secretary of State directly.
- Residential Address A. Parker Contracting's listed address at 109 Chartwell Ct, Bear, DE 19701 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.
- 0 Credentials Our automated search didn't find a manufacturer certification for A. Parker Contracting. Many reputable roofers aren't certified by any manufacturer, often by choice, so this isn't a sign of a problem. If a manufacturer-backed warranty matters to you, ask the contractor which certifications they carry.
- Excellent Ratings Across the platforms we identified for A. Parker Contracting (Google, Yelp, the Better Business Bureau), the blended average is 4.9 out of 5, which we label Excellent. This is a plain average of public customer ratings, not a RooferWatch score. A high average reflects past customers' experiences, not a guarantee of yours, so read the underlying reviews and weigh them yourself.
We verified 2/5 public records for A. Parker Contracting. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.

Reviewers report mixed experiences with this roofing and contracting company. Several customers praise the owner's hands-on approach, responsiveness, quality workmanship, and fair pricing. One reviewer describes the owner as taking pride in his work and standing behind it, while another commends prompt service during an emergency leak repair. However, some customers report significant issues. One reviewer states that after gutter installation, numerous nails and screws were left behind despite requests for cleanup, resulting in a flat tire weeks later. Another customer reports being stood up for an appointment with no call, citing miscommunication between family members running the business. The business owner responded to both negative reviews, acknowledging mistakes and expressing that they are human and make errors.
