Where in Fort Lauderdale these licences are registered

Licences are spread across 39 ZIP codes, with the largest concentrations in 33312 (268), 33309 (173), 33308 (160), 33301 (150), 33334 (115), 33311 (99). This is the address on the licence record — an office or, often, a home — and not a service-area map. A certified contractor can legally work anywhere in Florida.

How long Fort Lauderdale contractors have been licensed

717 of the 1,415 active licences registered in Fort Lauderdale have been held for a decade or more, while 410 were first issued in the last three years. The median licence here dates from 2016. The longest-held active licence in the city belongs to Restoration Technology Inc, licensed since 1972.

1,292 of Fort Lauderdale's 1,415 active licences are certified — a "C" prefix, valid anywhere in Florida. 89 are mold licences (MRSR remediators and MRSA assessors), which the state issues under a separate board. 34 are registered — an "R" prefix, which limits the holder to the local jurisdictions that accepted the registration.

Hiring a contractor in Fort Lauderdale — FAQ

How many licensed contractors are there in Fort Lauderdale?

1,415 companies and licence holders have a current, active Florida state licence registered to an address in Fort Lauderdale — 17% of every active licence in the Fort Lauderdale area. That figure comes from the official DBPR public records refreshed on 11 Aug 2026, and counts licences, not employees.

Does a Fort Lauderdale address mean the contractor only works in Fort Lauderdale?

No. DBPR records the address the licence holder registered, which is often an office or a home, not a service area. A certified ("C" prefix) licence is valid anywhere in Florida, so many contractors listed here work across the whole Fort Lauderdale area — and contractors based in neighbouring cities work in Fort Lauderdale. Ask about travel and call-out charges.

What is the difference between the licence types I see on this page?

A "C" prefix means certified: the licence is issued by the state and valid anywhere in Florida. An "R" prefix means registered, which limits the holder to the local jurisdictions that accepted the registration. Mold licences (MRSR for remediators, MRSA for assessors) are issued separately again. Fort Lauderdale has 1,292 certified, 34 registered and 89 mold licences.

Is a longer-held licence better?

It is a signal, not a guarantee. 717 of Fort Lauderdale's 1,415 active licences have been held for ten years or more, and 410 were first issued within the last three. A long licence shows the holder has kept up renewals and stayed in business; it says nothing about the quality of any particular job. Always collect written quotes and proof of insurance.
