Richard Barry Hopper

What this record tells you

Richard Barry Hopper holds Florida licence CPC1460293, 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 2023, which makes it a relatively recent licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 75% of the 109 active pool & spa licences based in the Spring Hill & Nature Coast area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2013. That is 3 years of continuous licensure.

Richard Barry Hopper is one of 35 active pool & spa licences registered to an address in Spring Hill, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Richard Barry Hopper 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.
