AI Summary

This bill expands the existing Roofing Contractor Registration Act to include residential roofers, meaning individuals and businesses performing residential roofing work will now be subject to the same registration, endorsement, and oversight requirements as commercial roofers. Key provisions include defining "residential roofing contractor work," granting the Construction Industries Board (the governing body) expanded enforcement powers over both commercial and residential roofers, and establishing specific penalties for violations, including fines and potential revocation of licenses. The bill also modifies definitions, clarifies responsibilities for prime contractors and subcontractors, introduces mandatory reporting for criminal pleas, adjusts fee structures, and outlines new requirements for obtaining and renewing roofing licenses and endorsements, including continuing education for both commercial and residential roofers. Furthermore, it clarifies disqualifications based on criminal history, modifies appeal processes, and updates requirements for reporting changes in identifying information, all aimed at enhancing consumer protection and professional standards within the roofing industry.
