Thorne Metal Systems Inc

What this record tells you

Thorne Metal Systems Inc holds Florida licence CCC1333853, 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 2022, which makes it a relatively recent licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 74% of the 139 active roofing licences based in the Gainesville area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2012. That is 4 years of continuous licensure.

Thorne Metal Systems Inc is one of 7 active roofing licences registered to an address in Keystone Heights, 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.
