Marlin Construction of Indian River County Inc

What this record tells you

Marlin Construction of Indian River County Inc holds Florida licence CGC022934, a CGC classification which authorises work as a certified/registered general contractor. A "C" prefix means the licence is certified — valid anywhere in Florida.

This licence was first issued in 1982, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 7% of the 331 active general contracting licences based in the Gainesville area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2008. That is 44 years of continuous licensure.

Marlin Construction of Indian River County Inc is one of 45 active general contracting licences registered to an address in Lake City, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Wilmer Kent Jr Marshall additionally holds 2 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 08/31/2028. 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.
