Why Florida pricing looks the way it does
Florida runs at the national baseline for labor — but storm code adds material-side cost.
- Statewide hurricane code requirements. Florida Building Code 7th Edition mandates wind-rated fastening, impact-rated openings (in HVHZ + most of coastal FL), and reinforced roof-to-wall connections. Adds 10–25% to material costs for relevant trades.
- Miami-Dade NOA premium in HVHZ. If your project is in Miami-Dade or Broward, products must be NOA-approved. NOA products run 15–25% above FBC-approved equivalents for the same function.
- Strict permit and inspection requirements. Florida is the strictest state for window-replacement permits and roof recover permits. Skipping permits creates real insurance liability in Florida — every wind-mit inspection asks about permit history.

My Florida contractor quoted way below the typical range — should I take the deal?
A quote 30%+ below the regional band is a classic bait-and-switch / unlicensed-contractor pattern. In Florida, always verify the contractor's license on the state licensing board, ask for proof of general liability + workers' comp insurance, and read 5+ recent reviews. Storm-chaser activity is highest right after weather events — be especially cautious then.
