Richard Henry Construction, LLC

What this record tells you

Richard Henry Construction, LLC holds Florida licence CGC049977, 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 1990, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 6% of the 307 active general contracting licences based in the Panama City area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2016. That is 36 years of continuous licensure.

Richard Henry Construction, LLC is one of 25 active general contracting licences registered to an address in Lynn Haven, 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.
