Waterside Builders, Inc.

What this record tells you

Waterside Builders, Inc. holds Florida licence CBC1256816, 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 2008, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 25% 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 18 years of continuous licensure.

Waterside Builders, 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. Mike Wafaa Assaad 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 08/31/2028. 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.
