Upthegrove Exteriors, LLC

What this record tells you

Upthegrove Exteriors, LLC holds Florida licence CCC1336149, 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 2024, which makes it one of the newer licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 76% of the 221 active roofing licences based in the Lakeland & Winter Haven area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 2 years of continuous licensure.

Upthegrove Exteriors, LLC is one of 87 active roofing licences registered to an address in Lakeland, 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.
