Preferred Builders of Florida Inc

What this record tells you

Preferred Builders of Florida Inc holds Florida licence CBC047687, 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 1989, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 3% of the 918 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Naples area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 37 years of continuous licensure.

Preferred Builders of Florida Inc is one of 841 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in Naples, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 08/31/2028. 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.
