48 roofing listings are recorded at Sarasota, Florida addresses. Four of them carry a Google rating taken from the business's own profile, from 4.8 to 5.0, covering 1,147 reviews in total. The other 44 are address and phone records with no rating attached.
45 of them are recorded in Sarasota County. Roofing permits and inspections are issued locally rather than by the state, so a re-roof in Sarasota goes through Sarasota County or the municipality's own building department, whichever holds jurisdiction at the property.
Hiring a roofer in Sarasota: what this page knows
The most-reviewed listing on this page carries a 4.9 Google rating over 605 reviews — the business's own profile figure, shown as it stands and not a rating by this directory.
Florida licenses roofing contractors at state level, so a Sarasota roofer should hold a current state license before quoting; the Florida roofing license rules set out the class and how to check it.
Florida's peak severe-weather season: June–November (Atlantic hurricane season); thunderstorms daily in summer. The Florida storm center lists any National Weather Service alert active right now. NOAA's Storm Events Database holds 25 severe-weather events for Sarasota County between 2016 and 2026 — the county the listings on this page put Sarasota in. The most recent event meeting the dataset's severity definition was a thunderstorm wind gust of 65 kt (about 75 mph) on January 9, 2024.
We have not modeled a cost index for Sarasota. The national baseline puts a full roof replacement at $5,625–$27,000 and a repair at $250–$3,500; local labor, permit fees and access move both.

Licensing for roofers working in Sarasota
Florida licenses roofing contractors at state level, and the requirement applies to work in Sarasota. The license is issued by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation.
A state license is not a substitute for local rules: the job still needs a permit and an inspection through Sarasota County or the city, and some municipalities require their own contractor registration on top of the state license.
Source: Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. Checked August 2026. Licensing rules change — verify before you sign anything.

* The most recent data year is partial. NOAA publishes storm reports on a rolling basis and the final months are still being processed, so a low count in the last year is not evidence of a quiet year. The curated archive behind these counts runs through May 31, 2026; anything later sits in the preliminary block below.
Notable events in the archive
- Jan 9, 2024 -- Thunderstorm Wind (65 kt gust) -- $25K property damage reported
- Mar 16, 2022 -- Tornado (EF1) -- $1.00M property damage reported
- Mar 29, 2016 -- Hail (Quarter - Half Dollar hail, 1.00 in)
- Jan 17, 2016 -- Tornado (EF2) -- $12.00M property damage reported
Selected by the dataset’s own rule rather than by editorial choice: the largest hail, the peak wind gust, the strongest tornado and the two costliest events by recorded property damage, deduplicated and newest first. Any dollar figure above is NOAA’s recorded estimate for that one event.
What these counts cover. County figures count events NOAA recorded against a county (hail, thunderstorm wind and tornadoes). High wind, winter storms, ice storms, blizzards, heavy snow, hurricanes and tropical storms are recorded against National Weather Service forecast zones rather than counties, so they are reported at state level instead. Counts reflect events that were observed and reported.
“Significant” on this page means an event meeting any one of three tests: hail 1.00 in across or larger, a wind gust of 58 kt or more (the National Weather Service severe thunderstorm criterion), or any tornado. It is a severity definition used by this dataset and is not an official NOAA classification.
The damage figure. $13,451,000 is the sum of NOAA’s recorded property-damage estimates across every event in Sarasota County over the period — a county total, not a figure for any one property, any one building or any one claim. NOAA records these figures as estimates made at the time of reporting. They are not adjusted for inflation, and they are frequently absent or zero — a zero means nothing was recorded, not that nothing was damaged.
Source. Archived figures come from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information Storm Events Database, covering 2016 through May 31, 2026. Anything after that date comes from NOAA Storm Prediction Center preliminary storm reports and is labelled preliminary wherever it appears. Both are US Government works in the public domain.
