Tropical Ventures of Newberry Inc

What this record tells you

Tropical Ventures of Newberry Inc holds Florida licence CPC057041, a CPC classification which authorises work as a certified/registered pool/spa contractor. A "C" prefix means the licence is certified — valid anywhere in Florida.

This licence was first issued in 1999, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 7% of the 42 active pool & spa licences based in the Gainesville area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2017. That is 27 years of continuous licensure.

Tropical Ventures of Newberry Inc is one of 6 active pool & spa licences registered to an address in Newberry, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

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.
