Dunham Well Drilling Inc

What this record tells you

Dunham Well Drilling Inc holds Florida licence RF0037156, a RF classification which authorises work as a certified/registered plumbing 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 1980, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 0% of the 136 active plumbing licences based in the Lakeland & Winter Haven area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2016. That is 46 years of continuous licensure.

Dunham Well Drilling Inc is one of 29 active plumbing licences registered to an address in Winter Haven, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

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.
