Aptitude Construction LLC

What this record tells you

Aptitude Construction LLC holds Florida licence CFC1432820, 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 2024, which makes it one of the newer licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 76% 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 2 years of continuous licensure.

Aptitude Construction LLC is one of 28 active plumbing licences registered to an address in Wesley Chapel, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Aurelio Cruz additionally holds 5 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.
