“As the construction industry mobilizes to assist with cleanup and restoration, it is important for out-of-state contractors to understand the complexity and enforcement of Florida’s construction licensing laws.”
Florida’s construction licensing is governed by Chapters 455 and 489, Florida Statutes. It provides that anyone engaged in construction must have the appropriate license. The definition of “contractor” under Section 489.105, Florida Statutes, requires that any person who seeks to “construct, repair, alter, remodel, add to, demolish, subtract from, or improve any building or structure” must have a license.https://www.roofingcontractor.com
