Property Solutions is a licensed and insured roofing, solar, and general contractor in Florida, led by a team holding Certified Building Contractor, Certified Roofing Contractor, Certified Solar Contractor, and Certified Pool & Spa Contractor credentials, verifiable qualifications that separate an established contractor from an unlicensed operator.
Before hiring any roofing contractor, licensing and insurance should be the first thing you check, not the last. Here’s exactly what Property Solutions holds, why each credential matters, and how you can verify it yourself.
Why Licensing Matters When Hiring a Roofing Contractor
Roofing is one of the most heavily regulated home improvement trades in Florida, for good reason. A poorly installed roof can fail during hurricane season, void a homeowner’s insurance claim, or create serious liability if a worker is injured on your property without proper coverage. Verifying a contractor’s license and insurance isn’t a formality; it’s what protects your home, your finances, and your legal standing if something goes wrong during or after a project.
Unfortunately, South Florida’s active roofing market also attracts unlicensed operators, especially after major storms when demand for repairs spikes quickly. Homeowners who skip the verification step are far more exposed to substandard work, denied insurance claims, and no recourse if a warranty dispute comes up later.
What Certifications Does Property Solutions Hold?
Property Solutions is led by a team holding the following Florida contractor certifications:
- Certified Building Contractor
- Certified Roofing Contractor
- Certified Solar Contractor
- Certified Pool & Spa Contractor
These are state-recognized certifications, not self-issued titles, meaning they can be independently verified rather than taken on faith. You can review the full list of credentials, along with the leadership behind them, on the About page.
Is Property Solutions Insured?
Yes. Property Solutions operates as a licensed and insured contractor for roofing services, commercial roofing, solar, and general contracting work across South Florida. Insurance coverage protects property owners from liability during a project, a key difference between hiring an established company and hiring an unlicensed crew that may disappear after cashing a deposit.
How to Verify a Roofing Contractor’s License in Florida
If you want to confirm any Florida contractor’s license status yourself, you can check it through the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR). A trustworthy contractor will never hesitate to provide license numbers when asked directly, and a quick DBPR lookup takes only a few minutes. This step is especially important after hurricanes, when door-to-door “storm chaser” contractors often appear in affected neighborhoods without proper Florida licensing.
What Does “Certified” Actually Mean for Homeowners?
Certification means a contractor has met Florida’s education, experience, and examination requirements for that specific trade: building, roofing, solar, or pool/spa work. For homeowners, this translates into several practical benefits:
- Code-compliant work: certified contractors understand Florida’s wind-mitigation and building codes, which is especially important in hurricane-prone South Florida.
- Warranty protection: many manufacturer warranties require installation by a certified, licensed contractor to remain valid; using an unlicensed installer can void coverage entirely.
- Insurance claim support: insurers are more likely to process claims smoothly when the original work was performed and documented by a verifiably licensed contractor.
- Accountability: licensed contractors are subject to state oversight and disciplinary processes, giving property owners real recourse if issues arise, unlike unlicensed operators.
Why This Matters More for Commercial Properties
For businesses evaluating a Commercial Roofing contractor, licensing and certification carry even higher stakes. A flat roof failure or delayed repair can directly disrupt operations, damage inventory, or create liability for tenants and customers. Business owners should always confirm a contractor’s commercial roofing license and insurance coverage limits before signing any agreement, since general liability minimums for commercial work are often significantly higher than for residential jobs.
What to Ask Before Hiring Any Roofing Contractor
Whether you’re evaluating a company for a residential roof replacement or a commercial flat roof project, a few direct questions can quickly separate a legitimate, licensed contractor from a risky one:
- Can you provide your Florida contractor license number?
- Is your business insured for general liability and workers’ compensation?
- Which specific certifications does your team hold?
- How long has your company operated in this local market?
- Can you provide references from projects completed in the last two years?
Property Solutions can answer all five of these directly, and encourages every prospective client to ask them, of any contractor they’re considering, not just this one.
