Most Midwest municipalities require a roofing permit for full replacement. Permits ensure decking inspection, proper underlayment, and code-compliant ventilation. Partial repairs often do not require one. Your contractor is responsible for obtaining all required permits before work begins.
In Illinois, contractor licensing is tracked by the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR). You can look up any contractor's license status directly at https://idfpr.illinois.gov/checklicense.html. To file a complaint or check for consumer alerts, use the Illinois Attorney General's consumer complaint page at https://forms.illinoisattorneygeneral.gov/Forms/ConsumerComplaints_ComplaintForm. AboveBoardPros runs this same check before listing a contractor, then reviews it on an ongoing basis.
