Van Cleave, Inc.

What this record tells you

Van Cleave, Inc. holds Florida licence CRC1331396, 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 2016, which makes it an established licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 38% of the 918 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Naples area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 10 years of continuous licensure.

Van Cleave, Inc. is one of 841 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in Naples, 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.
