Forthofer & Sons Roofing Company LLC

What this record tells you

Forthofer & Sons Roofing Company LLC holds Florida licence CCC1330438, 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 2014, which makes it an established licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 38% 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 12 years of continuous licensure.

Forthofer & Sons Roofing Company LLC is one of 21 active roofing licences registered to an address in Parkland, 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.
