Thanks for that info .. yes, roofing is not rocket science but it is a highly regulated industry in Florida. Last year, Florida restricted the sale of roofing materials to licensed contractors only. Some grumbling but the regulation stuck. A building permit was required (but free; the fee was waived) and an inspection was required. The government, insurers, and industry did everything possible to lock out competition and make sure servicable roofs were the outcome.

We lucked out with the rain as well. It took more than a month to get the blue roof but it pretty much stayed dry the whole time. Coincidence or weather pattern shift after a big one passes through?

 the fee was waived

they should waive their $500 fine for their 6 month blue tarp law as well..there are still houses in need of roof repairs from last years hurricanes
