Public Records Check
- Missing License Our automated search didn't find a license on file for First State Roofing & Exteriors 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.
- Registered Corporation First State Roofing & Exteriors's registered name carries a corporate suffix (LLC or Inc), but we have not matched it to a filing on the Delaware Secretary of State. You can confirm how the business is registered, and its current status, directly with the Delaware Secretary of State.
- Residential Address First State Roofing & Exteriors's listed address at 202 E Mt Vernon St #1, Leipsic, DE 19977 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.
- 1 Credential First State Roofing & Exteriors holds these manufacturer certifications: Atlas Pro+ Gold Select. 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.
- Excellent Ratings Across the platforms we identified for First State Roofing & Exteriors (Google, the Better Business Bureau), the blended average is 5.0 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 4/5 public records for First State Roofing & Exteriors. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.
