Tim Bates Roofing Inc.

What this record tells you

Tim Bates Roofing Inc. holds Florida licence CCC1328963, 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 2009, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 30% of the 894 active roofing licences based in the Fort Lauderdale area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2020. That is 17 years of continuous licensure.

Tim Bates Roofing Inc. is one of 64 active roofing licences registered to an address in Coral Springs, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

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.
