Which one am I? A roofer with a crew takes Operator at $399 a month. That is the plan with certified payroll, progress billing, texts and the price book. Permit & Compliance at $149 covers permits, aerial takeoff and lien dates. Put the whole crew on either one. Nobody pays per person.
Lien rights and the Notice to Owner
Statutes citedFla. Stat. § 713.06(2)(a)Fla. Stat. § 713.011(1)Fla. Stat. § 713.18
Who has to send a Notice to Owner in Florida?
Anyone who did not sign the contract with the owner. Subs, their subs, and suppliers who signed with someone below the owner (Fla. Stat. § 713.06(2)(a)). Laborers are exempt. And if you signed with the owner yourself, this is not you: you do not serve one, because the owner already knows you.
The Florida Notice to Owner deadline, and how to track itWhen does the 45-day Notice to Owner clock start in Florida?
It runs from your first furnishing. That is your first day of labor, services or materials on the job, not the overall project start and not your last day of work (Fla. Stat. § 713.06(2)(a)). You can serve before you start, but no later than 45 days after.
The Florida Notice to Owner deadline, and how to track itWhat happens if I miss the Florida Notice to Owner deadline?
Your lien is gone. A missed or late NTO is a complete defense to the lien (Fla. Stat. § 713.06(2)(a)), no matter what you are owed. Not legal advice. Talk to a Florida construction attorney.
The Florida Notice to Owner deadline, and how to track itWhen is a Florida Notice to Owner considered served: on mailing or on delivery?
On mailing, not receipt. Certified mail with evidence of delivery counts from the postmark (Fla. Stat. 713.18), and the worksheet is built around that rule. Not legal advice. Confirm the service method fits your job.
Notice to Owner software, built for Florida's Chapter 713Does the Notice to Owner deadline extend if it falls on a weekend or holiday?
Yes, it rolls to the next business day (Fla. Stat. § 713.011(1)). FL Permit Pay gives you that extra day. Don't plan on needing it.
The Florida Notice to Owner deadline, and how to track itYour license, your qualifier, and your subs
Statutes citedFla. Stat. § 489.119Fla. Stat. § 489.116Fla. Stat. § 489.128
When does my Florida contractor license expire?
Biennially, on August 31. Certified contractors renew in even years, registered in odd, electrical (ECLB) in even, per DBPR. FL Permit Pay tracks the exact date per license. Confirm yours at MyFloridaLicense.
Track your Florida contractor license renewalWhat happens if my DBPR license lapses in Florida?
First the state marks it late. Then the license is void (Fla. Stat. 489.116). While it is lapsed you cannot legally contract (penalties under 489.128), and a lapsed qualifier strips the whole company (489.119). Confirm your status on the state site.
Track DBPR licenses, COIs, and renewal datesHow does my qualifier affect my company's license renewal?
Your company works under a qualifying agent's license (Fla. Stat. § 489.119). If the qualifier lapses or leaves, you have 60 days to replace them, or the company loses the right to contract. FL Permit Pay keeps the date that license runs out with your other papers.
Track your Florida contractor license renewalCan it confirm my license is actually active, or just remind me of the date?
Both. It checks DBPR's official weekly extract and stamps Verified active with the date pulled. Weekly, not real-time. Confirm on the state site before you rely on it.
Track DBPR licenses, COIs, and renewal datesHow do I check whether a Florida subcontractor's license is current?
Check DBPR, the state's source of record. FL Permit Pay runs the check and keeps the dated result on the sub's record.
How to track subcontractor licenses in FloridaPermits, review clocks, and inspections
Statutes citedFla. Stat. § 553.792CS/CS/HB 803 (2026), Ch. 2026-63
How does the software track the HB 803 permit review deadline?
Enter the date the complete application went in and choose the review track. FL Permit Pay shows the applicable §553.792 estimate, pauses for requested corrections, and flags when the estimated window has passed. Confirm the result with the building department.
Florida permit tracking, from the day you apply to close-outDoes Florida permit tracking software pull my permit status automatically from Hillsborough, Pasco, or Pinellas?
No. Your team records the current permit and inspection status in FL Permit Pay. This works across Florida counties and keeps the county's wording with the job, but you still confirm live status in the county portal.
Florida permit tracking, from the day you apply to close-outDoes it cover counties outside Tampa Bay?
Yes, for tracking. Permits and inspections work in all 67 counties. We have sourced and checked the job-type pre-checks for three counties: Hillsborough, Pasco and Pinellas. Everywhere else you get the state baseline, plus a link to the county portal.
Florida permit tracking, from the day you apply to close-outWill it warn me before a permit expires?
Yes. An open permit with an end date shows up on your Today screen as that date gets close. You see it about 30 days out, again inside a week, then overdue. We read those days on Florida time, so a permit cannot lapse before the job is finaled without warning.
Florida permit tracking, from the day you apply to close-outGetting paid, retainage, and certified payroll
Statutes citedFla. Stat. § 255.078Fla. Stat. § 218.73529 CFR 5.5(a)(3)(ii)
Does Florida cap how much retainage a contractor can hold back?
Public work: 5%, set by state (Fla. Stat. § 255.078, over $200,000) and local government (§ 218.735, 10% for small municipalities). Private work: whatever the contract says (§ 715.12). Not legal advice. Confirm against your contract.
How to get paid faster as a Florida contractorWhen is payment legally due on a Florida public construction job?
20 business days after a proper invoice on local-government work, 25 if a third party approves it, and you pay subs within 10 days of getting the money (Fla. Stat. § 218.735). Your contract defines a proper invoice.
How to get paid faster as a Florida contractorDoes Florida require certified payroll or have a state prevailing-wage law?
No. Florida has no prevailing-wage law. WH-347 shows up only when federal money is on the job (Davis-Bacon, contracts over $2,000). Confirm the funding source rather than assuming.
Review the weekly WH-347 before you certify itHow often do I have to submit certified payroll?
Weekly. One payroll per workweek per project, numbered from 1 in order, sent within 7 days after the regular pay date, with a signed Statement of Compliance (29 CFR 5.5(a)(3)(ii)). The prime contractor sends every subcontractor's payroll, and the records are kept 3 years after the job ends.
Review the weekly WH-347 before you certify itCan I collect the pay application online in Florida?
When online payment is active for your account, the GC or owner can pay by ACH or card on a hosted page and the money settles into your connected bank account. Check the availability shown in your account before offering it.

Is there a roofing CRM that also tracks Florida permits and inspections?
Yes. Every job carries its customer, its permits, and its inspection results. Run the county pre-check, add the permit, and move it from applied to final.
A roofing CRM that also runs your Florida complianceCan a construction CRM verify my DBPR contractor license?
Yes, the same weekly DBPR check that covers your own license. Current and Active stamps Verified; anything else reads could not verify, never a false green.
A roofing CRM that also runs your Florida complianceIs my customer and job data private to my company?
Yes. Customers, jobs, permits, and documents are private to your company. You assign the roles that control who can view or edit customer records.
A roofing CRM that also runs your Florida complianceDoes a lead have to be retyped to become a job?
No. Converting a lead creates the customer and the job from what you already typed, and the deal moves forward on its own when the proposal goes out or the job is won.
Roofing lead management, from first call to signed jobCan I try it before I move real work into it?
Yes. 14 days, unlimited seats, no card. Run one real job through it, proposal to permit to pay app, then decide.
Can I move over from Roofr, JobNimbus, or AccuLynx?
Yes, for customers, jobs, and your price book. The importer takes a CSV, shows you the source rows, and lets you check the field mapping before a single record is created. There is a dedicated Roofr jobs and catalog import.
Is every feature and integration on the pricing page live today?
No, and the pricing page says so plainly: included, metered, setup-required, access-gated, and planned are separate labels. Supplier ordering (ABC Supply, SRS, QXO) is planned, not connected today.
