Ray Maiden Plumbing Company LLC

What this record tells you

Ray Maiden Plumbing Company LLC holds Florida licence RF0067174, 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 2000, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 10% of the 109 active plumbing licences based in the Panama City area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 26 years of continuous licensure.

This is the only active plumbing licence registered to an address in Mexico Beach in the current DBPR extract — worth widening your search to the surrounding Panama City area when collecting comparison quotes.

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.
