How Do You Track Roofing Permits in Florida?

How to Track Roofing Permits in Florida
Tracking roofing permits means watching each county's building department for newly filed roof replacements, re-roofs, repairs, and storm-damage work, then acting before the crew is hired. In Florida, that volume is steady year-round and spikes after storms, so a roofer who reviews fresh permits weekly always has a pipeline. Doing it by hand across counties is slow; the value is in consistent, filtered access.
Key Takeaways
- Watch replacement, re-roof, repair, and storm-damage permits.
- Cluster post-storm outreach by the hardest-hit ZIP codes.
- Sort by valuation to prioritize full replacements over repairs.

Related Questions
How do I track roofing permits across multiple counties?
Each county publishes permits separately. PermitMap aggregates them and filters to roofing, delivered weekly, so you don't check 20 portals by hand.
How often should I check roofing permits?
Weekly at minimum — permits are filed before work starts, so fresh review keeps you ahead of competitors.
Using PermitMap to track roofing permits
PermitMap aggregates roofing permits across every Florida county and delivers them filtered and scored each Monday, so you never check 20 portals by hand. For example, a roofer in Lee County can pull every re-roof and storm-damage permit filed this week, sort by valuation, and start with the full-replacement jobs first.
PermitMap covers Roofing permits across Palm Beach County, Broward County, Lee County, Miami-Dade County and every other county we track, refreshed weekly. Start a 14-day trial (card required) to get this week's scored, ranked permits in your inbox every Monday — and reach owners during the 2-4 week window before work begins.
Tracking roofing permits across a whole region
A roofing company working five counties can't realistically check five building-department sites every week. They set PermitMap to roofing permits across all five, and each Monday the new replacements, re-roofs, repairs, and storm filings arrive in one ranked list with addresses and values.
The owner skims the top of the list — the full tear-offs and storm jobs — and assigns them to estimators before lunch. Lower-value repairs feed a nurture sequence. Because every permit is dated and scored, the team always knows which leads are fresh this week and which are worth a same-day visit. What used to be an afternoon of portal-hopping becomes a five-minute triage and a full day of selling.
