How Florida CCC Compares to Other Licenses
CCC vs. CGC (Certified General Contractor)
- A CGC can oversee roofing as part of an overall new build contract, but a dedicated roofing contractor (CCC) is required when performing stand-alone re-roofing and replacements without general construction scope.
- CCC focuses 100% on wind-mitigation, Florida Building Code 7th/8th Edition High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) compliance, and manufacturer warranties.
