Hodges Pool Services LLC

What this record tells you

Hodges Pool Services LLC holds Florida licence RP252555534, a RP classification which authorises work as a certified/registered pool/spa 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 2020, which makes it an established licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 58% of the 76 active pool & spa licences based in the Lakeland & Winter Haven area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2016. That is 6 years of continuous licensure.

Hodges Pool Services LLC is one of 18 active pool & spa 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.
