Challenger General Services LLC

What this record tells you

Challenger General Services LLC holds Florida licence CPC1460905, 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 2025, which makes it one of the newer licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 83% of the 356 active pool & spa licences based in the Sarasota & Bradenton area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2018. That is 1 year of continuous licensure.

Challenger General Services LLC is one of 122 active pool & spa licences registered to an address in Sarasota, 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.
