Cs Gifford Home Services, Inc.

What this record tells you

Cs Gifford Home Services, Inc. holds Florida licence CRC1326414, 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 2002, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 21% of the 1,681 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Jacksonville area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2012. That is 24 years of continuous licensure.

Cs Gifford Home Services, Inc. is one of 47 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in St Johns, 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.
