Rowe Roofing and General Construction LLC

What this record tells you

Rowe Roofing and General Construction LLC holds Florida licence RC0026863, a RC classification which authorises work as a certified/registered roofing contractor. An "R" prefix means the licence is registered, which limits work to the local jurisdictions that accepted it rather than the whole state.

This licence was first issued in 1976, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 0% of the 139 active roofing licences based in the Gainesville area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2012. That is 50 years of continuous licensure.

Rowe Roofing and General Construction LLC is one of 32 active roofing licences registered to an address in Lake City, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Frezell Rowe additionally holds 4 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 08/31/2027. 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.
