Public Records Check
- License Found As of Jun 19, 2026, the Illinois state licensing board shows an active license for TAR Roofing: 104016654. 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 TAR 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 TAR Roofing's listed address at 3101 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago, IL 60657 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.
- 0 Credentials Our automated search didn't find a manufacturer certification for TAR Roofing. 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 TAR Roofing (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 4/5 public records for TAR Roofing. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.

Yelp
Customer reviews of TAR Roofing are mixed. Several reviewers report extremely negative experiences, describing roof replacements that resulted in leaks within a week and worsened despite seven repair attempts over a year. These customers state they were directed to address unrelated issues like plumbing and door replacements, and report the company refused accountability or refunds, ultimately costing them over $40,000 when they hired another contractor for a successful replacement. However, most reviewers describe positive experiences. Multiple customers praise the company's responsiveness, professionalism, quality workmanship, and fair pricing. Several highlight meticulous attention to detail, thorough cleanup, excellent communication, and skilled crews. Reviewers commend quick response times to emergency calls and coordination between office and field staff. One reviewer noted the work was barely noticeable during the project.
