How do I check a roofer's license in Idaho?
Search the roofer's license number, business name, or personal name at Idaho Contractor Registration (Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses) (dopl.idaho.gov). Status must be Active. Look for the Registered Contractor class. A free public-records check on Groundcheck (earthmove.io/trust) cross-references this with court records, OSHA, and BBB.
To verify a roofer in Idaho, search the Idaho Contractor Registration (Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses) database. The lookup tool is at https://dopl.idaho.gov/icb/.
What to enter: the contractor's license number is the fastest path. Most state boards also let you search by business name or personal name. Confirm the license shows the Registered Contractor class — that's the specific classification authorizing installs and repairs residential and commercial roofing systems including shingles, metal, tile, and flat-roof membranes.
What to look for: status must be "Active." Status of "Inactive," "Suspended," "Expired," or "Revoked" is a hard stop. Check the bond amount (most boards require contractor bonds), expiration date (renewals lapse if a contractor falls behind on continuing education), and any open complaints or disciplinary actions in the public record.
What the lookup does NOT show: liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage are typically separate from the state license database. Ask the roofer for current Certificates of Insurance and verify directly with the insurer.
What Groundcheck adds: a roofer can be currently licensed and still have unresolved court judgments, OSHA citations, or BBB complaints. Groundcheck (earthmove.io/trust) cross-references the Idaho Contractor Registration (Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses) record with Secretary of State filings, public court records, federal OSHA inspection history, and BBB complaint history into one sourced report. The contractor is never notified.
