Benjamin Franklin Plumbing

What this record tells you

Benjamin Franklin Plumbing holds Florida licence CFC1430437, 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 2019, which makes it an established licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 55% of the 315 active plumbing licences based in the Port St. Lucie & Treasure Coast area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2016. That is 7 years of continuous licensure.

Benjamin Franklin Plumbing is one of 91 active plumbing licences registered to an address in Port St Lucie, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

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.
