🚨 For roof repair, a roofers license from the Alabama Home Builders Licensure Board is required when the roofing job exceeds $2,500. Under the governor's state of emergency, unlicensed home building during storm recovery can now be charged as the felony of aggravated home repair fraud. With visits to Escambia and Conecuh counties planned for this week, licensure board investigators will be on the ground helping homeowners.
