Why Verify Through HBLB
State Authority
HBLB is the legal licensing body for Alabama home builders. Their record is the source of truth — not Google, not Yelp.
Consumer Protection
Hiring an unlicensed contractor in Alabama can void your warranty and leave you exposed if work is defective.
Real-Time Data
Licenses can be suspended, revoked, or expire. HBLB shows live status — our list is updated periodically; their database is authoritative.
Step-by-Step: Verify in 2 Minutes
Follow these five steps to confirm any Alabama roofing contractor's standing.
-
1
Open the official HBLB licensee search
Go to hblb.alabama.gov and open the Licensee Search. This is the State of Alabama's official record — no third party.
-
2
Enter the contractor's company name or license number
Type the exact business name. If you know the license number, that's the most precise lookup.
-
3
Confirm 'Active' status, license class, and expiration
Look for an Active status, the appropriate license class (Residential, Commercial, or Roofing), and a current expiration date.
-
4
Cross-check the business address
Verify the address on file with HBLB matches what the contractor advertises locally in Huntsville and Madison County.
-
5
Report discrepancies to HBLB
If anything looks wrong — expired license, mismatched name, no record — file a complaint directly with HBLB. They are the enforcement authority.
Verify Every Listed Roofer
Each link opens HBLB's official licensee search prefilled with the contractor's name. You'll see live status — Active, Expired, Suspended — straight from the State.

Also Verify with the AL General Contractors Board
Alabama uses two separate licensing boards. HBLB regulates residential home builders. The Alabama Licensing Board for General Contractors (ALBGC) regulates commercial roofing and any project of $50,000 or more.
HBLB — Residential
Use HBLB to verify roofers performing work on single-family homes and residential properties.
hblb.alabama.govALBGC — Commercial / $50K+
Use the General Contractors Board for commercial roofing, multi-family, or any single project of $50,000 or more — Alabama law requires a separate license.
genconbd.alabama.govPro tip: For a re-roof over $50,000 or any commercial property, check both boards. A contractor must hold the correct license for the scope of your job — residential-only credentials don't cover commercial work, and vice versa.
Alabama's Two Licensing Authorities
HBLB (hblb.alabama.gov) licenses residential home builders. The Alabama Licensing Board for General Contractors (genconbd.alabama.gov) licenses general contractors for commercial work and projects of $50,000+. Both maintain official licensee directories, complaint forms, and disciplinary records.
