Steps

For Florida: search by license number, business name, or qualifying agent name at myfloridalicense.com; confirm the license is a Certified Roofing Contractor (CCC, valid statewide) rather than a Registered Roofing Contractor (RC, valid only in specific recognizing local jurisdictions)
For California: search by license number or business name at cslb.ca.gov's 'Check a License' tool; confirm an active C-39 Roofing classification, a status of 'Active' (not Expired/Suspended/Revoked), and a current $25,000 surety bond on file
In both states, confirm the license name matches the entity on the actual contract, and check for any listed disciplinary actions before award
Confirm workers' compensation coverage status where the state licensing database displays it (CSLB shows this for licensees with employees)
Re-verify license status close to contract execution date, since both databases are described as updated close to real-time and status can change between initial bid and award

Known gotchas

Florida has two distinct roofing license tiers (CCC statewide vs. RC locally-recognized-only) — an RC license valid in one Florida jurisdiction may not authorize work in another
Many U.S. states have no statewide roofing contractor licensing at all (e.g., Texas, where TDLR does not license roofers and the RCAT credential is voluntary industry certification, not a state license) — do not assume a license lookup portal exists everywhere before checking
License-verification third-party sites (aggregators pulling DBPR/CSLB data) are convenience tools only — treat the state agency's own portal (myfloridalicense.com, cslb.ca.gov) as the authoritative source in a dispute
