R J Owens Roofing Contrs Inc

What this record tells you

R J Owens Roofing Contrs Inc holds Florida licence RC0054620, 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 1987, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 2% of the 397 active roofing licences based in the St. Petersburg & Clearwater area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2020. That is 39 years of continuous licensure.

R J Owens Roofing Contrs Inc is one of 92 active roofing licences registered to an address in St Petersburg, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Richard John Owens additionally holds 1 other active Florida licence 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.
