Ernest Plumbing Inc

What this record tells you

Ernest Plumbing Inc holds Florida licence CFC052656, 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 1990, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 4% of the 1,098 active plumbing licences based in the Miami area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2022. That is 36 years of continuous licensure.

Ernest Plumbing Inc is one of 13 active plumbing licences registered to an address in North Miami Beach, 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.
