Public Records Check
- License Found As of Jun 19, 2026, the Illinois state licensing board shows an active license for Conrad Roofing: 104015083. An active license means the state currently authorizes this contractor to do this work. It doesn't speak to the quality of their work or their current insurance. License status can change, so you can confirm it's still active anytime with the Illinois state licensing board.
- Registered Corporation Conrad Roofing's registered name carries a corporate suffix (LLC or Inc), but we have not matched it to a filing on the Illinois Secretary of State. You can confirm how the business is registered, and its current status, directly with the Illinois Secretary of State.
- Business Address Conrad Roofing's listed address at 5122 N Elston Ave, Chicago, IL 60630 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 Conrad Roofing holds these manufacturer certifications: CertainTeed ShingleMaster, GAF PlatinumElite (Commercial), GAF CoatingsPro / CoatingsPro+ (Commercial, Liquid-Applied). 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 Conrad Roofing (Google, Yelp, the Better Business Bureau, GAF), the blended average is 4.3 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 5/5 public records for Conrad Roofing. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.

Customer reviews of Conrad Roofing are mixed. Several reviewers report positive experiences, describing the company as easy to work with, delivering quality work in a timely manner, and praising communication from staff members like Alex. However, other reviewers express significant concerns. One customer reports receiving aggressive unsolicited text messages over a year after requesting a quote. Another reviewer was quoted a $445 fee for an estimate, which they found unusual. A third reviewer describes a negative assessment experience, stating the associate appeared rushed, refused to examine the roof when asked, and became dismissive when questioned. Additionally, one reviewer reports ongoing roof leaks years after a 2014 warranty replacement, claiming other roofers identified construction defects, and states that Conrad Roofing staff dismissed their concerns.
