Chris Smith Contracting Services, LLC

What this record tells you

Chris Smith Contracting Services, LLC holds Florida licence CBC1255665, 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 2007, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 28% of the 1,533 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Sarasota & Bradenton area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2017. That is 19 years of continuous licensure.

Chris Smith Contracting Services, LLC is one of 157 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in North Port, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Christopher Brady Smith additionally holds 1 other active Florida licence in our records, which can indicate a contractor qualified across more than one trade or entity.

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.
