Bath Fitter of Southwest Florida

What this record tells you

Bath Fitter of Southwest Florida holds Florida licence CFC1427197, 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 2006, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 18% of the 483 active plumbing licences based in the Fort Myers & Cape Coral area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2020. That is 20 years of continuous licensure.

Bath Fitter of Southwest Florida is one of 112 active plumbing licences registered to an address in Fort Myers, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Fred W Lepley additionally holds 3 other active Florida licences in our records, which can indicate a contractor qualified across more than one trade or entity.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 08/31/2026. 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.
