Public Records Check
- Missing License Our automated search didn't find a license on file for C.L. Linfoot Company 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.
- Missing Corporation Our automated search didn't find a registered business entity for C.L. Linfoot Company with the North Dakota 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 North Dakota Secretary of State directly.
- Business Address C.L. Linfoot Company's listed address at 4805 Demers Ave, Grand Forks, ND 58201 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.
- 1 Credential C.L. Linfoot Company holds these manufacturer certifications: NRCA Membership - member since 1971. 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.

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