1st Alert Roofing

What this record tells you

1st Alert Roofing holds Florida licence CCC1329035, 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 28% of the 388 active roofing licences based in the Sarasota & Bradenton area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 17 years of continuous licensure.

1st Alert Roofing is one of 27 active roofing licences registered to an address in Palmetto, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Charles Rusty Cerniglia 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.
