(KNZA)--The city of Hiawatha is reminding residents who received storm damage to their roofs last week to make sure your contractor is licensed with the city and registered with the state before having the company inspect your home.

City Hall has a list of licensed roofers available upon request.

Attorney General Derek Schmidt continues to remind consumers to make sure roofing contractors are properly registered before signing any contract, making any upfront payments or having any work done.

Consumers should request a copy of their roofer’s registration certificate and then should check the attorney general’s consumer protection website at www.InYourCornerKansas.org to confirm that the roofer is in good standing.
