Public Records Check
- Locally Regulated Indiana doesn't issue a statewide roofing license - roofing is regulated locally through city or county permits, so there is no state license to verify. We don't count this against Midland Engineering Company. Confirm any local permit or registration with the city or county where the work will take place.
- Missing Corporation Our automated search didn't find a registered business entity for Midland Engineering Company with the Indiana 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 Indiana Secretary of State directly.
- Unverified Address Midland Engineering Company's listed address at South Bend, IN appears to be a unconfirmed address. A roofer using a mailbox isn't necessarily a problem, but it can make the company harder to reach or hold accountable. To reach them in person, ask the contractor for a physical address or confirm one directly.
- 2 Credentials Midland Engineering Company holds these manufacturer certifications: Carlisle Perfection Award, NRCA Membership - member since 1953. 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.
- Okay Ratings Across the platforms we identified for Midland Engineering Company (Google, Yelp), the blended average is 2.6 out of 5, which we label Okay. This is a plain average of public customer ratings, not a RooferWatch score. Averages like this can be pulled down by a few reviews or a single dispute, so treat it as a starting point and read the underlying reviews for context.

Yelp
Reviewers report mixed experiences with this contractor. One customer states that while the work performed by technicians was solid, they encountered significant billing issues. This reviewer reports that their invoice exceeded the initial quote, with labor hours grossly exaggerated (invoiced for 24 hours when technicians were on-site for 5 hours) and rates 15-20% higher than initially quoted. Although the company revised the invoice, the reviewer describes it as still inflated. The customer reports receiving conflicting explanations when requesting clarification and states the company refused to discuss billing questions by phone. The reviewer also alleges the company billed multiple clients for the same travel hours and reports that when questioned about this practice, a representative declined to address the concern.
