Contact Florida Home Costs

We read every message. Reach us at [email protected].

When you write, it helps if you note in the subject line or the first sentence what kind of message it is. The three things we hear about most often:

Corrections and source disputes

If you’ve found an error in one of our cost guides — a rate that doesn’t match what you’re being quoted, a permit fee schedule that’s been updated, a building code reference that’s out of date, or a contractor licensing claim that needs revising — please include:

  • The article URL where you found the issue
  • The specific claim or number you’re disputing
  • The source or context for the correct information (a permit invoice, an insurance declaration page, a county fee schedule URL, etc.)

Corrections are reviewed within five business days. When we update an article based on reader feedback, we add a note in the article’s editorial history. We don’t publish corrections submitter names without explicit permission.

This is the most important kind of message we receive. Florida cost data shifts — new code editions, annual insurance rate orders, county fee revisions, material price changes — and we’d rather hear from a reader who spotted a discrepancy than discover it ourselves a year later.

General questions about our cost data

If you have a question about how we arrived at a particular cost range, what’s included or excluded from a stated estimate, or how a Florida-specific factor (HVHZ requirements, hurricane impact ratings, Citizens Property Insurance rate context) applies to your situation, write in. We try to respond to general questions within seven business days.

We can usually clarify what’s behind a published estimate or point you to the source we used. What we can’t do is replace a contractor’s site evaluation or an insurance agent’s quote — see our methodology for the boundaries of what our estimates cover.

Editorial feedback and topic requests

If there’s a Florida home improvement topic we haven’t covered that you’d find useful — a specific trade, a city we haven’t broken out, a code requirement that gets misunderstood — let us know. We don’t promise to write every requested topic, but reader interest is one of the inputs we weigh when planning our coverage.

What we don’t do

For clarity, this site does not:

  • Provide contractor referrals or rankings. We don’t list, rate, recommend, or refer specific contractors. For licensed contractor verification, use the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) licensee search.
  • Process insurance claims, file disputes, or intervene in coverage matters. The Florida Office of Insurance Regulation handles consumer complaints about insurer conduct.
  • Mediate disputes between homeowners and contractors. The DBPR Construction Industry Licensing Board handles licensure-related complaints; for civil disputes, contact a Florida attorney.
  • Send marketing emails. We don’t have a newsletter, we don’t sell contact information, and we don’t follow up on inquiries with promotional outreach.

Editorial leadership

Florida Home Costs is edited by Marco Reyes. Marco reviews source citations and Florida-specific code references before articles publish.
