The bill amends the Roofing Contractor Registration Act to enhance the oversight and regulation of roofing contractors in Oklahoma. It introduces new requirements for obtaining residential roofing endorsements, mandating that contractors pass a designated examination with a minimum score of 70% or complete ten hours of continuing education within a twelve-month grandfathering period for existing contractors. The bill also establishes penalties for violations, including escalating administrative fines for repeated offenses and the potential revocation of endorsements. Additionally, it requires that the Construction Industries Board be listed as a certificate holder on liability insurance policies for roofing contractors, ensuring better compliance with safety and regulatory standards.

Moreover, the bill modifies the application process for roofing contractor registration by requiring proof of business address and liability insurance that meets specified minimum coverage amounts. It stipulates that contractors must notify the Board if their liability policy is canceled, leading to a suspension of their registration until proof of insurance is restored. The bill also outlines the procedures for the suspension and revocation of registrations, stating that any registration not in good standing for sixty days will be suspended and potentially revoked after ninety days if not rectified. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026.
