In Florida, contractors can be registered or certified. Registered contractors work in a specific city or county and must meet certain competencies and obtain business insurance. Certified contractors are able to work throughout the state, and have additional requirements, including the need to hold roofing insurance. Both types of license are handled through the Department of Business and Professional Regulation.
You can consider a number of things when choosing a roofing contractor, such as:
The best way to estimate how much roof repairs might cost is to ask a contractor directly, as many factors could influence the price tag. On average, Florida homeowners pay around $774 for roof repairs.
Typically, Florida homeowners pay around $7,342 for roof replacement. This cost varies based on your location, and is affected by factors like the material used, the size and accessibility of your roof, and how many stories your home has.
Roofers typically offer two types of warranties or guarantees: workmanship and materials. The former protects you in case there's an issue caused by poor workmanship, while the latter protects you from issues caused by faulty materials. These may also be referred to as, respectively, contractor or manufacturing guarantees.
Certain roof repairs may be covered by your home insurance. Before choosing a provider, you should check with your home insurance company to find out if it has any preferred contractors. You may also find it easier to have repairs covered if the damage was caused by a covered weather event, like HurricaneRisk. Make sure that you talk to your home insurance provider and a financial advisor before committing to any repairs or replacement.
