Lester F. Paulk and Sons, Inc.

What this record tells you

Lester F. Paulk and Sons, Inc. holds Florida licence CCC1333305, 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 2021, which makes it a relatively recent licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 51% of the 397 active roofing licences based in the St. Petersburg & Clearwater area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2020. That is 5 years of continuous licensure.

Lester F. Paulk and Sons, Inc. is one of 23 active roofing licences registered to an address in Tarpon Springs, 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.
