What this record tells you

Gulfside Building Solutions, LLC holds Florida licence CBC1260993, 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 2016, which makes it an established licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 58% of the 526 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Spring Hill & Nature Coast area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2011. That is 10 years of continuous licensure.

Gulfside Building Solutions, LLC is one of 32 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in Hernando, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. James Milton Esckelson 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.
