Spring Hill basics

Hernando County repealed its county business tax in 2007, effective October 1 of that year. So the paperwork that matters most is your state license, plus County contractor registration for permit work.

New permits and contractor registration now run through Hernando County's Tyler self-service portal. The older portal is kept only for permits from the previous system.

Sinkholes are a real topic here. Florida's limestone dissolves over time and can collapse into sinkholes, according to the Florida Geological Survey, and the state's DEP does not inspect suspected sinkholes; it points homeowners to certified home inspectors or foundation specialists. Hernando County lists sinkhole investigation permits among those registered contractors can self-issue.

On the insurance side, Florida law requires property insurers to cover a catastrophic ground cover collapse, while broader sinkhole coverage is offered for an extra premium. Inspectors and contractors who work on these claims should explain the difference plainly.
