Leslie Sapp Construction Inc

What this record tells you

Leslie Sapp Construction Inc holds Florida licence CGC1516220, 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 2008, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 49% 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 18 years of continuous licensure.

Leslie Sapp Construction Inc is one of 20 active general contracting licences registered to an address in Trenton, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Thomas Leslie Sapp additionally holds 1 other active Florida licence 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.
