Our verification notes

The official site claims IASM membership, but an accessible current IASM directory entry was not independently captured. Iowa contractor registration appears to exist in a trade-license index, but no registration number was verified from the state registry, so stateLicense.number remains null.

Sources checked

  • BBB Business Profile (A+ accreditation, principal and tenure)
  • The Gazette reporting (active owner, raising/moving volume and field work)
  • Illinois DNR flood-damage packet (government elevation-contractor list)
  • FMCSA carrier snapshot (active legal entity and USDOT 711500)
