Coverage (read this first)

Florida has no statewide permit database. This tool searches the cities and counties that publish their permits as open data:

AreaRecords fromNotes
City of Tampa201563,000+ roof permits from the City's Daily Permit Report; refreshed monthly
Sarasota County (unincorporated)202513,900+ roof permits (public records); refreshed monthly. Not the City of Sarasota, Venice or North Port city limits
City of Miami2012Updated daily
Miami-Dade Countylast ~2 yearsCounty-processed permits (mostly unincorporated areas)
City of Fort Lauderdale2021Source last updated March 2026
City of Gainesville1990
Alachua County (unincorporated)1980Updated daily
City of Cape Coral2025Updated daily
City of Leesburg2021Updated daily

Add the city after a comma so the right database is used. Addresses outside these areas come back as NOT_COVERED and are not charged. More areas will be added as they publish open data.

Good to know

  • No permit found does not mean a new roof. It can mean the roof is older than the records, the work was filed under another address or parcel, or it was not permitted.
  • Roof age is an estimate from permit dates, not an inspection. Confirm before underwriting decisions.
  • Only work descriptions are returned; free-text contact details that clerks sometimes add are removed.
  • Not affiliated with any city, county or the State of Florida. Data is provided as published by each source.
  • Attribution: City of Tampa Daily Permit Report (public records); Sarasota County Planning & Development Services (public records); City of Miami Open Data (CC BY 4.0); Miami-Dade County Open Data; City of Fort Lauderdale GIS; City of Gainesville; Alachua County Open Data; City of Cape Coral Open Data; City of Leesburg GIS.

Pay per address checked in a covered area. Addresses that are not covered, or where every source fails, are free.
