Which IL classifications count as roofing contractors

• Roofing Contractor — the only construction licence type IDFPR publishes

A record's classifications array carries these codes, so you can tell a licence that covers the work from one that merely exists.

Run it

curl "https://contractor-license-verification2.p.rapidapi.com/v1/licenses/IL/105005105" \
  -H "X-RapidAPI-Key: YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "X-RapidAPI-Host: contractor-license-verification2.p.rapidapi.com"

105005105 is a real IL licence (JUAN C PINA) in this trade, so that call works as written.

Before you rely on it

Roofing is the whole of Illinois coverage here, not a subset of it: it is the one construction trade IDFPR publishes as open data. Illinois is also the only state in this API that publishes disciplinary actions, so a roofing lookup returns case numbers, dates and reasons where they exist.

What Department of Financial and Professional Regulation does not publish

• Street address
• Surety bond
• Workers' compensation

Full coverage detail, including the caveats that apply to every Illinois lookup, is on the Illinois page.
