What FL homeowners should know
Kitchen work in Florida follows the Florida Building Code, administered by the city or county building department where you live. Florida requires many contractors to be state-certified or registered, plus a local business tax receipt; ask to see their license and verify it with the state’s licensing board.
Florida has hot, humid, hurricane-prone conditions. Humidity and salt air are hard on some finishes, so ask about moisture-resistant cabinet construction and corrosion-resistant hardware.
Hurricane season runs through late autumn and can delay deliveries, so build some schedule flexibility into your plan.
