J & R Premier Plumbing, Inc.

What this record tells you

J & R Premier Plumbing, Inc. holds Florida licence CFC1426862, 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 21% 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 21 years of continuous licensure.

J & R Premier Plumbing, Inc. is one of 24 active plumbing licences registered to an address in Seminole, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. John Jr Gilch additionally holds 1 other active Florida licence in our records, which can indicate a contractor qualified across more than one trade or entity.

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.
