Classic Construction of South Florida, Inc.

What this record tells you

Classic Construction of South Florida, Inc. holds Florida licence CRC046159, a CRC classification which authorises work as a certified/registered building or residential contractor. A "C" prefix means the licence is certified — valid anywhere in Florida.

This licence was first issued in 1989, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 7% of the 574 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Melbourne & Space Coast area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2013. That is 37 years of continuous licensure.

Classic Construction of South Florida, Inc. is one of 83 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in Palm Bay, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 08/31/2026. 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.
