Public Records Check
- Registration-Based Pennsylvania doesn't license roofing contractors; instead it requires a statewide contractor registration. We treat this check as met rather than penalise it, but we haven't independently verified this company's registration - confirm it directly with the state before hiring.
- Registered Corporation McDowell Roofing's registered name carries a corporate suffix (LLC or Inc), but we have not matched it to a filing on the Pennsylvania Secretary of State. You can confirm how the business is registered, and its current status, directly with the Pennsylvania Secretary of State.
- Residential Address McDowell Roofing's listed address at 116 E Walnut St, Flying Hills, PA 19607 appears to be a residential 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 McDowell Roofing holds these manufacturer certifications: Owens Corning 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.
- Excellent Ratings Across the platforms we identified for McDowell Roofing (Google, the Better Business Bureau), the blended average is 4.8 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 5/5 public records for McDowell Roofing. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.
