Licensing and permits
Roof replacement in Florida requires a state-certified or registered roofing (or general/building) contractor licensed through Florida's Construction Industry Licensing Board, and a building permit.
Tips before you hire
- Ask for the permit number and final inspection. Insurers and future buyers will want proof of the roof's install date.
- Florida law prohibits contractors from offering gifts or deductible waivers to get you to file an insurance claim. Treat that offer as a red flag.
- After a roof is replaced, schedule a new wind mitigation inspection. Upgraded roof-deck nailing and secondary water barriers can earn credits.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Florida?
Yes. Re-roofing needs a building permit from your city or, in unincorporated areas, Pinellas County.
Will a new roof lower my insurance?
Often, yes. Roof age is a major rating factor in Florida, and a wind mitigation report documents features that earn discounts.
