Public Records Check
- License Found As of Jul 10, 2026, the Illinois state licensing board shows an active license for Big River Roofing & Coatings: 104018856. 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 Big River Roofing & Coatings'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.
- Residential Address Big River Roofing & Coatings's listed address at 654 15th St, Peoria, IL 61478 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 Big River Roofing & Coatings. 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.

This is a plain average of public customer ratings, not a RooferWatch score.
