Public Records Check
- Registration-Based Wisconsin 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 Brookens Construction's registered name carries a corporate suffix (LLC or Inc), but we have not matched it to a filing on the Wisconsin Secretary of State. You can confirm how the business is registered, and its current status, directly with the Wisconsin Secretary of State.
- Business Address Brookens Construction's listed address at 6592 Lake Rd ## D, DeForest, WI 53598 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 Brookens 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 Brookens Construction (Google, Yelp, the Better Business Bureau), the blended average is 4.5 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 Brookens Construction. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.
