Service One of Tampa Bay Inc

What this record tells you

Service One of Tampa Bay Inc holds Florida licence CFC026567, a CFC classification which authorises work as a certified/registered plumbing contractor. A "C" prefix means the licence is certified — valid anywhere in Florida.

This licence was first issued in 1983, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 2% of the 435 active plumbing licences based in the St. Petersburg & Clearwater area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 43 years of continuous licensure.

Service One of Tampa Bay Inc is one of 82 active plumbing licences registered to an address in Clearwater, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

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.
