Five Star Plumbing of Sw Florida, Inc.

What this record tells you

Five Star Plumbing of Sw Florida, Inc. holds Florida licence CFC1428616, 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 2012, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 32% of the 111 active plumbing licences based in the Port Charlotte & Punta Gorda area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2021. That is 14 years of continuous licensure.

This is the only active plumbing licence registered to an address in Boca Grande in the current DBPR extract — worth widening your search to the surrounding Port Charlotte & Punta Gorda area when collecting comparison quotes.

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.
