Southern Pools South Inc

What this record tells you

Southern Pools South Inc holds Florida licence CPC1457431, 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 2007, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 19% of the 230 active pool & spa licences based in the Naples area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2021. That is 19 years of continuous licensure.

Southern Pools South Inc is one of 211 active pool & spa licences registered to an address in Naples, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Trisha Akers 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.
