Solar Source

What this record tells you

Solar Source holds Florida licence CVC56938, a CVC classification which authorises work as a certified solar contractor. A "C" prefix means the licence is certified — valid anywhere in Florida.

This licence was first issued in 2013, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 25% of the 53 active solar licences based in the Orlando area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2020. That is 13 years of continuous licensure.

Solar Source is one of 2 active solar licences registered to an address in Altamonte Springs, 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.

Before you hire Solar Source

• Re-check licence CVC56938 on the DBPR portal — status can change any day.
• Ask for a current certificate of liability insurance and workers' compensation, issued to you directly by their insurer.
• Confirm the name on your contract matches Solar Source or its qualifying agent, Christopher Patrick Maingot.
• Compare at least three written quotes from other solar contractors in Orlando.
• Confirm in writing that the contractor — not you — pulls the building permit.
