WHEN PERFECT IS CLOSE ENOUGH

What this record means

The record shows that the mark WHEN PERFECT IS CLOSE ENOUGH was registered on the Principal Register (Reg. 3698571) to Benger Construction, LLC, a Massachusetts limited‑liability company, but the registration was cancelled on May 27 2016 because the owner failed to file a required Section 8 declaration, so the mark is now dead. The only listed goods are “building construction, remodeling and repair” in International Class 037, meaning the closest area of concern would be any other construction‑related business using a similar phrase. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of those words in unrelated fields. The prosecution history shows a normal path to registration with publication for opposition in August 2009 and registration in October 2009, followed by the later cancellation for non‑maintenance. No oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 event, or court actions appear, so the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a construction‑service brand with a similar tagline.
