HB 1313 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Residential roofer; require license and registration in certain situations.

HB 1313 requires residential roofers who install or repair more than four roofs annually and receive payment through insurance-covered roof repair contracts to obtain a license from Mississippi's Board of Contractors and register with the Commissioner of Insurance before starting work. Roofers failing to comply face fines of up to $5,000 per violation. The law directly affects contractors handling insurance-related residential roof repairs, excluding smaller projects under $50,000 or specific residential developments. It aims to standardize licensing for this sector while maintaining existing exemptions for certain construction types.
