FREE FLORIDA LICENSE CHECK
Is your roofer licensed?
Type the business name, the owner's name or the license number from the proposal. You will see whether the Florida roofing license is active and what type it is.
What to look for
- Active. The license must be active. An inactive license cannot be used to contract.
- The right name. The business or licensee should match the name on your contract and the permit.
- Certified or registered. Certified (CCC) can work anywhere in Florida. Registered (RC) only where they are registered locally.
- Then the proposal. A license is the minimum. Check the proposal itself for what is included and what is missing.

Questions
How do I check if a Florida roofer is licensed?
Type the roofer's business name, the licensee's name or the license number above. Results come from the Florida DBPR construction licensee file. For the official record, also search the DBPR license portal.
What do CCC and RC license numbers mean?
CCC is a certified roofing contractor, licensed by the state to work anywhere in Florida. RC is a registered roofing contractor, who may work only in the local jurisdictions where they are registered.
The roofer I am checking does not show up. What now?
Ask for their license number and check it on the DBPR portal. Some records, such as null and void or delinquent licenses, are not in the public download this tool uses. Do not sign until you can confirm an active license in the name on the contract.
