T.L. Ziel Pools, Inc

What this record tells you

T.L. Ziel Pools, Inc holds Florida licence RP252555623, 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 2023, which makes it a relatively recent licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 70% of the 394 active pool & spa licences based in the Fort Lauderdale area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 3 years of continuous licensure.

T.L. Ziel Pools, Inc is one of 39 active pool & spa licences registered to an address in Fort Lauderdale, 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.
