Since 2019, roofing contractors have seen new requirements and changes to their scopes of work imposed under Florida’s contractor licensing statutes. Many of these changes require contractual disclosures and impose various timelines, including cancellation deadlines. On May 19, 2025 HB 715 (formerly SB 1076) was signed into law by Governor DeSantis. The new law creates multiple changes to Chapter 489, Florida Statutes, that effect roofers.

The new statute goes into effect July 1, 2024 and imposes new requirements for roofing contracts with residential property owners. Failing to comply could subject contractors to $10,000 fines.
