Custom Watershapes Inc

What this record tells you

Custom Watershapes Inc holds Florida licence CPC1458973, 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 2017, which makes it an established licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 44% of the 394 active pool & spa licences based in the Fort Lauderdale area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 9 years of continuous licensure.

Custom Watershapes Inc is one of 17 active pool & spa licences registered to an address in Plantation, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. John Zona 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.
