Linville Plumbing Service, LLC

What this record tells you

Linville Plumbing Service, LLC holds Florida licence CFC056876, 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 1996, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 7% of the 136 active plumbing licences based in the Lakeland & Winter Haven area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2016. That is 30 years of continuous licensure.

Linville Plumbing Service, LLC is one of 70 active plumbing 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.
