David Hester, Inc.

What this record tells you

David Hester, Inc. holds Florida licence CBC1261342, 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 39% of the 831 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Miami area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 10 years of continuous licensure.

David Hester, Inc. is one of 498 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in Miami, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. David Paul Hester 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.
