Rhino General Contracting Inc

What this record tells you

Rhino General Contracting Inc holds Florida licence CGC1507291, 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 2004, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 21% of the 1,770 active general contracting licences based in the Tampa area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2013. That is 22 years of continuous licensure.

Rhino General Contracting Inc is one of 80 active general contracting licences registered to an address in Plant City, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Robert Colen Jr Elliott 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 08/31/2026. 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.
