Comfort Plumbing & Drains

What this record tells you

Comfort Plumbing & Drains holds Florida licence CFC1431834, 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.

Comfort Plumbing & Drains is one of 253 active plumbing licences registered to an address in Tampa, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. John Richard Pullen additionally holds 4 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 08/31/2026. 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.
