Ars/Rescue Rooter

What this record tells you

Ars/Rescue Rooter holds Florida licence CFC1428283, 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 2010, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 32% of the 479 active plumbing licences based in the Sarasota & Bradenton area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2018. That is 16 years of continuous licensure.

Ars/Rescue Rooter is one of 94 active plumbing licences registered to an address in Bradenton, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Dennis John Zacek additionally holds 2 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 08/31/2028. 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.
