What do Mighty Dog Roofing reviews show?

Is Mighty Dog Roofing a franchise?

Yes. Mighty Dog Roofing sells franchises, and its locations are independently owned and operated (source: company website). The local owner's business holds the license, signs your contract and runs the crews, so experiences can differ a lot from one location to the next.

How do I check my local Mighty Dog Roofing location?

Start with the location's page on this list: it shows the license we matched, permits in city records where available, and its Google review history. Then confirm the legal business name on your contract, and look that name up yourself: Florida DBPR license lookup (myfloridalicense.com); Texas doesn't issue a state roofing license, so ask for proof of insurance and the permit number; Illinois IDFPR license lookup (and the City of Chicago's contractor license search). Ask who pulls the permit and get the permit number. For a franchise, ask who owns the location and who backs the warranty.
