Why verify a Florida roofer?

Roofing scams are one of the top consumer complaints after every major storm. Make sure your roofer is licensed, insured, and not a fly-by-night operator chasing hail damage.

How to hire a Florida roofer safely

  1. Verify the roofer's license is active in your state — never hire a storm-chaser without one.
  2. Confirm general liability insurance covers fall accidents (roofing has the highest insurance rates of any trade).
  3. Insist on a written, signed contract before any tear-off begins.
  4. Never pay the full balance until your local building inspector signs off.
  5. Get a written warranty on labor (5+ years) separate from the manufacturer's material warranty.

Frequently asked questions

Should I hire a door-to-door roofer after a storm?

Be very cautious. Reputable roofers don't typically canvas neighborhoods after storms. Verify the license, get multiple bids, and never sign anything that lets the contractor negotiate directly with your insurance company.

How long should a new roof last?

Asphalt shingle roofs typically last 20–30 years; metal 40–70 years; tile 50+. Lifespan depends heavily on installation quality, which is exactly what licensing protects.

Do I need a permit to replace my roof?

Most municipalities require a permit for full re-roofs and a separate inspection on completion. A licensed roofer should handle both as part of the project.
