John Phillips Plumbing Service Inc

What this record tells you

John Phillips Plumbing Service Inc holds Florida licence CFC1428734, 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 35% 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 14 years of continuous licensure.

John Phillips Plumbing Service Inc is one of 174 active plumbing licences registered to an address in Sarasota, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

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.
