Poolside Renovations Inc

What this record tells you

Poolside Renovations Inc holds Florida licence CPC1456473, 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 2002, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 10% of the 279 active pool & spa licences based in the Tampa area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2020. That is 24 years of continuous licensure.

This is the only active pool & spa licence registered to an address in Thonotosassa in the current DBPR extract — worth widening your search to the surrounding Tampa area when collecting comparison quotes.

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.
