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 HW Building & Remodeling'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 HW Building & Remodeling's listed address at 1410 Palm St, Reading, PA 19604 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.
- 0 Credentials Our automated search didn't find a manufacturer certification for HW Building & Remodeling. Many reputable roofers aren't certified by any manufacturer, often by choice, so this isn't a sign of a problem. If a manufacturer-backed warranty matters to you, ask the contractor which certifications they carry.
- Excellent Ratings Across the platforms we identified for HW Building & Remodeling (Google, the Better Business Bureau), 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 HW Building & Remodeling. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.

One reviewer reports that Jon was responsive during an emergency repair situation, coming out on a Sunday between rainstorms. However, one customer describes a negative experience, stating that Jon scheduled two appointments but failed to appear either time and did not call to reschedule or explain his absence, characterizing this as unprofessional.
