Public Records Check
- Locally Regulated Ohio 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 The Third Estimate. Confirm any local permit or registration with the city or county where the work will take place.
- Registered Corporation The Ohio Secretary of State listed The Third Estimate as Active when we last checked on Jul 7, 2026, registered since 2008. You can confirm it's still current with the Ohio Secretary of State.
- Unverified Address The Third Estimate's listed address at 30500 Solon Industrial Pkwy, Glenwillow, OH 44139 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 The Third Estimate holds these manufacturer certifications: Owens Corning Platinum Preferred. 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 The Third Estimate (Google, Yelp, the Better Business Bureau, Owens Corning), the blended average is 4.2 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 The Third Estimate. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.
