Public Records Check
- Missing License Our automated search didn't find a license on file for Independent Roofing Systems with the Mississippi state licensing board. That doesn't mean the company is unlicensed. A license can be held under a different business name, registered too recently for us to match, or filed in a way our search didn't catch. We recommend confirming directly with the Mississippi state licensing board or asking the contractor for their license number.
- Registered Corporation The Mississippi Secretary of State listed Independent Roofing Systems as Active when we last checked on Jul 2, 2026, registered since 1981. You can confirm it's still current with the Mississippi Secretary of State.
- Business Address Independent Roofing Systems's listed address at 175 Excell Drive, Pearl, MS 39208 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 Independent Roofing Systems holds these manufacturer certifications: Elevate Licensed Contractor, Carlisle ESP Award (Excellence in Single-Ply), NRCA Membership - member since 1990. 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 Independent Roofing Systems (Google), the blended average is 4.0 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 4/5 public records for Independent Roofing Systems. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.
