Orlando Pools by Design Inc

What this record tells you

Orlando Pools by Design Inc holds Florida licence CPC1457343, 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 2006, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 25% of the 416 active pool & spa licences based in the Orlando area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2016. That is 20 years of continuous licensure.

Orlando Pools by Design Inc is one of 24 active pool & spa licences registered to an address in Winter Park, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Matthew R Szafran 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.
