Carlos Rafael Rodriguez

What this record tells you

Carlos Rafael Rodriguez holds Florida licence CVC57171, 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 2022, which makes it a relatively recent licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 49% of the 43 active solar licences based in the Miami area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2022. That is 4 years of continuous licensure.

Carlos Rafael Rodriguez is one of 25 active solar licences registered to an address in Miami, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Carlos Rafael Rodriguez additionally holds 7 other active Florida licences in our records, which can indicate a contractor qualified across more than one trade or entity.

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.
