Governor DeSantis signs bill today expanding the scope of work for roofing contractors and adding required contract notice. The new law takes effect immediately.
The bill, HB 715, Chapter Law 2025-40, https://laws.flrules.org/2025/40, expands the scope of work for licensed roofing contractors to include the evaluation and enhancement of roof-to-wall connections for certain structures with wood when done in conjunction with a reroof or repair.
The bill narrows the time-period for the 10-day cancellation period that allows a residential property owner to cancel a roofing contract without penalty. Such cancellation period is only available if the roofing contract is entered into within 180 days of events that are the subject of a declaration of a state of emergency. The bill also broadens the applicability to any residential property located within the geographic area of the state of emergency.
The bill requires contractors to include certain notices in contracts to replace or repair residential roofs that advises owners to contact their insurance company before signing such contracts. The notice must be in not less than 14 points and signed by the residential property owner.
