Public Records Check
- License Found We found a license number on file for Original Roofing Company: 262600127, but haven't confirmed its current status directly with the Michigan state licensing board. We recommend verifying it's active and in good standing with the Michigan state licensing board before hiring.
- Missing Corporation Our automated search didn't find a registered business entity for Original Roofing Company with the Michigan 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 Michigan Secretary of State directly.
- Unverified Address Original Roofing Company's listed address at 2249 Wealthy St SE, East Grand Rapids, MI 49506 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.
- 1 Credential Original Roofing Company holds these manufacturer certifications: CertainTeed ShingleMaster. 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 Original Roofing Company (Google, 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 3/5 public records for Original Roofing Company. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.

Reviewers consistently praise Original Roofing for exceptional customer service and communication throughout the roofing process. Several customers report that staff members like Trevor, Jace, Joey, Austin, David, and Jarred provided responsive, professional guidance and handled insurance claims on their behalf. Multiple reviewers describe the crews as hardworking and efficient, completing projects in one to two days with high-quality craftsmanship and thorough cleanup. Customers appreciate the company's transparency and integrity, with one reviewer noting that staff declined to push unnecessary repairs after a hail storm inspection. Most reviewers report satisfaction with the final roof appearance and the overall experience. However, one customer expressed disappointment, stating that after being advised to file an insurance claim, the company failed to follow up or provide a damage report despite multiple requests, leading them to hire a different contractor. Another reviewer noted minor issues with initial installation that required correction.
