Public Records Check
- Missing License Our automated search didn't find a license on file for Western Products with the North Dakota 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 North Dakota state licensing board or asking the contractor for their license number.
- Registered Corporation Western Products's registered name carries a corporate suffix (LLC or Inc), but we have not matched it to a filing on the North Dakota Secretary of State. You can confirm how the business is registered, and its current status, directly with the North Dakota Secretary of State.
- Unverified Address Western Products's listed address at 474 45th St S, Fargo, ND 58103 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 Western Products 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.
- Okay Ratings Across the platforms we identified for Western Products (Google, Yelp, the Better Business Bureau, CertainTeed), the blended average is 3.9 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.
We verified 2/5 public records for Western Products. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.

However, multiple reviewers describe significant issues with project execution and follow-up service. Customers report installation delays, scheduling problems, and incomplete or incorrect work on roofing, siding, gutters, windows, and doors. Some reviewers describe difficulties reaching the company for warranty service and repairs, with one customer stating calls went unreturned. Reviewers express frustration with what they characterize as inadequate warranties, high pricing relative to competitors, and instances where the company allegedly denied responsibility for installation errors. Several customers report having to hire other contractors to correct Western Products' work. One reviewer notes concerns about contract terms lacking specific start and completion dates.
