evicting tenant florida?

we have a tenant who was paying monthly and had a one year AS IS lease. the roof began leaking, my hubby tried to repair 3 times. want to build over hse so seems pointless to repair. renters agreed to move and signed a letter stating that they will use the sec. deposit for the month of aug and move out sep. 1st. they did not and asked for a few xtra weeks which we allowed but after another full month we began the eviction process. as soon as we did, the renters starting threatening to call code enforcement allegeing the roof fell on her child./ the house is not fit…
we are just waiting for our 5 day notice to be served by sheriff but anyone got any info on a sitch like this———– i have already read all the court packet/laws
thank you for your answers…
honestly the $ is the least of all—
we really just want them out
