Licensing and permits
Florida doesn't require a state license for painting. Check local business registration, liability insurance and workers' comp, and lead-safe certification for pre-1978 homes.
Tips before you hire
- For pre-1978 homes, federal rules require EPA lead-safe (RRP) certified renovators when disturbing painted surfaces.
- Exterior paint in Florida needs mildew-resistant, high-UV products. Ask for the product line in writing.
- Check HOA color approvals before you schedule.
