Florida license reference
What a Florida roofing contractor license means, according to the official Construction Industry Licensing Board, and how to check one.
The Construction Industry Licensing Board, part of the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, licenses and regulates construction contractors, including roofing contractors.
DBPR defines a certified contractor as a contractor who has a certificate of competency from the department and who may contract in any jurisdiction in the state without having to meet that jurisdiction's competency requirements. Certified construction occupation codes begin with the letter C.
DBPR defines a registered contractor as a contractor who has registered with the department after meeting the competency requirements of the jurisdiction for which the registration is issued. Registered contractors may contract only in those jurisdictions. Registered construction occupation codes begin with the letter R.
On the official board page, roofing contractors are designated CC when certified and RC when registered. The official register uses license types such as Certified Roofing Contractor and Registered Roofing Contractor.
DBPR describes a roofing contractor as a contractor whose services are unlimited in the roofing trade and who has the experience, knowledge, and skill to install, maintain, repair, alter, extend, or design and use materials used in the installation, maintenance, extension, and alteration of all kinds of roofing, waterproofing, and coating, except when coating is not represented to protect, repair, waterproof, stop leaks, or extend the life of the roof.
The official definition also includes related work such as skylights, required roof-deck attachments, repair or replacement of wood roof sheathing or fascia as needed during roof repair or replacement, and evaluation and enhancement of roof-to-wall connections as described on the board page. The official definition is the authority; this page does not replace it.
Sensus Tampa roofing pages copy the license number, license type, status, issuing source, and as-of date from the official record. A license is not a ranking, a customer review, or a guarantee of work quality. Sensus copies the official record and shows the as-of date. A missing fact is unknown. Confirm the current status on the official DBPR license search, because a published copy can lag the live register.
