One of the most important things to look out for while looking for a roofer to work with is proper documentation. Licenses, work permits and other legally recognized forms of certification actually work to protect you as the client by assuring you of the roofer’s legitimacy. When it comes to roofing as a specialty contractor service, the C-39 license is without a doubt the most important form of documentation. Below is a little more about this license in terms of what it is, what it covers and why it is so important for you as a client to work only with roofers who have the C-39 license.
What is a c-39 license?
Before we go into details about what the importance of using a roofer with a C-39 license is, it is important to understand what the C-39 license is in the first place.
C-39 is a specific license issued by the Contractors State License Board (CSLB) to qualified roofing contractors who have met specific requirements and satisfied stipulated licensing criteria. It is one out of 61 other licenses under CSLB’s category C of licenses which covers special contractor services including plumbing, fencing, fire installation and in this case, roofing.
