Universal Roof & Contracting

What this record tells you

Universal Roof & Contracting holds Florida licence CCC057165, a CCC classification which authorises work as a certified/registered roofing contractor. A "C" prefix means the licence is certified — valid anywhere in Florida.

This licence was first issued in 1994, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 4% of the 1,022 active roofing licences based in the Orlando area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2021. That is 32 years of continuous licensure.

Universal Roof & Contracting is one of 352 active roofing licences registered to an address in Orlando, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

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.
