Independent Plumbing of Florida, Inc.

What this record tells you

Independent Plumbing of Florida, Inc. holds Florida licence CFC1431657, 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 2022, which makes it a relatively recent licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 61% of the 559 active plumbing licences based in the Tampa area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2018. That is 4 years of continuous licensure.

Independent Plumbing of Florida, Inc. is one of 10 active plumbing licences registered to an address in Land O Lakes, 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.
