Florida State Pipefitters Inc

What this record tells you

Florida State Pipefitters Inc holds Florida licence CFC1426788, 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 2005, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 18% of the 734 active plumbing licences based in the Fort Lauderdale area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2020. That is 21 years of continuous licensure.

Florida State Pipefitters Inc is one of 51 active plumbing licences registered to an address in Coral Springs, 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.
