Chip'S Pool Care Inc.

What this record tells you

Chip'S Pool Care Inc. holds Florida licence CPC1458945, 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 2016, which makes it an established licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 49% of the 76 active pool & spa licences based in the Lakeland & Winter Haven area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2016. That is 10 years of continuous licensure.

Chip'S Pool Care Inc. is one of 34 active pool & spa licences registered to an address in Lakeland, 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.
