What this record tells you

This licence was first issued in 2026, which makes it one of the newer licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 94% of the 3,585 active general contracting licences based in the Fort Lauderdale area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2014. That is 0 years of continuous licensure.

Ocean Ave Construction LLC is one of 124 active general contracting licences registered to an address in Sunrise, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Johnnie Charles Cope 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.
