Custom Craftsmen Inc

What this record tells you

Custom Craftsmen Inc holds Florida licence CBC031867, a CBC classification which authorises work as a certified/registered building or residential contractor. A "C" prefix means the licence is certified — valid anywhere in Florida.

This licence was first issued in 1984, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 2% of the 952 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Fort Lauderdale area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2018. That is 42 years of continuous licensure.

Custom Craftsmen Inc is one of 146 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in Fort Lauderdale, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 08/31/2026. Florida licences renew on a fixed cycle, and a licence that is not renewed moves to delinquent status — which is why the expiry date matters if you are planning work close to that date. Confirm the current status on the state portal before signing a contract.
