Charles Nelson Pool Service and Repair Incorporated

What this record tells you

Charles Nelson Pool Service and Repair Incorporated holds Florida licence CPC1458690, 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 2015, which makes it an established licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 39% of the 100 active pool & spa licences based in the Port Charlotte & Punta Gorda area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 11 years of continuous licensure.

Charles Nelson Pool Service and Repair Incorporated is one of 50 active pool & spa licences registered to an address in Port Charlotte, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

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.
