Jacksonville is a consolidated city-county; the city had 949,611 residents in the 2020 Census. The Census Bureau's 2019-2023 survey puts the city's median year built at 1986, with 40.6% of the city's housing units built before 1980 and 57.4% of occupied units owner-occupied. Florida licenses roofers in two ways: a certified contractor holds a state certificate of competency and may work in any jurisdiction, while a registered contractor is registered only where it met the local competency rules (F.S. 489.105). Under F.S. 553.844, a roof replacement must include a secondary water barrier and techniques to strengthen the roof-deck attachment, so ask each quote to list both. If a roof built or replaced under the 2007 Florida Building Code or later has 25 percent or more repaired or replaced, only the repaired portion must meet the current code, and a local government cannot change that rule by ordinance. Notice of a storm claim is due within one year of the date of loss, or 18 months for a supplemental claim (F.S. 627.70132).
