We don’t lean on logo stickers. PeakShield’s credentials are the real ones — state-issued Florida roofing and general contractor licenses, earned through decades of work in Florida’s construction industry.
Florida issues two separate contractor license classes relevant to roofing. Most roofers hold only the CCC. PeakShield holds both — giving us broader scope of work authority on every project.
Florida’s CCC license is the state’s dedicated roofing contractor classification, issued by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR). It authorizes the licensee to perform any roofing work on any structure — residential, commercial, or industrial — across the state of Florida.
Holding a CCC license means our roofing work has been evaluated, tested, and approved by the State of Florida. Unlicensed roofing contractors operate illegally in Florida and void manufacturer warranties on any work they perform.

Florida’s CGC license is one of the most comprehensive contractor licenses the state issues. It authorizes a wide scope of construction work — structural repairs, deck replacement, fascia, framing, and related construction work that a roofing-only license does not cover.
Holding the CGC alongside the CCC means PeakShield can scope and perform structural repairs discovered during a roof replacement — rotted deck, damaged rafters, deteriorated fascia — without requiring a separate general contractor. This keeps projects faster, cleaner, and under one warranty.

PeakShield was built by people who have been in Florida’s construction industry for 30+ years. That history isn’t a marketing claim — it’s the reason we know Florida’s wind zones, building codes, HOA requirements, insurance landscape, and material performance in this specific climate better than contractors who learned the trade elsewhere.
Began working in Florida’s residential and commercial construction industry, developing expertise in structural systems, framing, and exterior envelope work.
Survived and rebuilt through multiple major hurricane seasons — including the 2004–2005 cycle that reshaped Florida’s building codes and insurance landscape permanently. Hands-on experience no classroom delivers.
Focused expertise in roofing systems and obtained Florida’s CCC and CGC licenses, establishing the credentials and contractor network that PeakShield operates on today.
PeakShield serves homeowners and businesses statewide, combining 30+ years of Florida construction knowledge with a vetted contractor network and a commitment to doing every job as if it were our own home.
30+ years means we’ve watched Florida’s building code evolve through every major update since the post-Andrew reforms. We install to the current code for every county — not an outdated standard.
We’ve seen what holds up and what doesn’t after decades of Florida’s heat, UV, humidity, salt air, and storm seasons. Our material recommendations are based on long-term real-world performance, not manufacturer marketing.
Three decades in Florida construction means we’ve navigated every version of Florida’s homeowners insurance market, from post-Andrew reforms to Citizens Insurance to today’s AOB restrictions. We know how to document claims and work HOA approvals because we’ve done it hundreds of times.
The CGC license means our inspectors can identify and scope structural issues — deck rot, rafter damage, fascia deterioration — that a roofing-only contractor would have to subcontract out. One call, one crew, one warranty.
A license isn’t just a number. Here’s what it means in practice when a licensed contractor does your roof.
Florida licensed contractors are bonded and insured, subject to state oversight, and bound by Florida Building Code requirements. Unlicensed contractors offer none of these protections — and any damage they cause is largely unrecoverable.
Only licensed contractors can pull building permits in Florida. A permit closes out with a passed inspection, which creates an official record that the work was code-compliant — critical when you sell your home or file an insurance claim.
GAF and Owens Corning require installation by licensed contractors for their material warranties to be valid. An unlicensed installer voids the manufacturer warranty on every material they touch — even premium shingles.
If a licensed contractor causes damage or fails to perform, you have legal recourse through Florida’s DBPR contractor licensing board. With an unlicensed contractor, your only option is civil court against someone who may have no assets to recover.
Insurance carriers require licensed contractors for claim-related repairs. Work performed by an unlicensed contractor may be excluded from coverage and can jeopardize your ability to file future claims on the same property.
Unpermitted or unlicensed work shows up in title searches and home inspections. It can reduce your home’s appraised value, complicate a sale, and create legal liability. Licensed, permitted work adds value and closes clean.
