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.
- Missing Corporation Our automated search didn't find a registered business entity for TC Backer Construction with the Pennsylvania 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 Pennsylvania Secretary of State directly.
- Business Address TC Backer Construction's listed address at 2300 Carlisle Rd, New Salem, PA 17408 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 TC Backer Construction 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.
- Excellent Ratings Across the platforms we identified for TC Backer Construction (Google, the Better Business Bureau, CertainTeed), the blended average is 4.9 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 4/5 public records for TC Backer Construction. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.
