Hogtown Roofing and Construction LLC

What this record tells you

Hogtown Roofing and Construction LLC holds Florida licence CBC1269928, 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 2026, which makes it one of the newer licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 96% of the 470 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Gainesville area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2009. That is 0 years of continuous licensure.

Hogtown Roofing and Construction LLC is one of 16 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in Archer, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Lester Dean Jr Copeland additionally holds 2 other active Florida licences 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.
