Front Porch Builders LLC

What this record tells you

Front Porch Builders LLC holds Florida licence RR282812151, a RR classification which authorises work as a certified/registered building or residential 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 2021, which makes it a relatively recent licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 57% of the 645 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Pensacola area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2018. That is 5 years of continuous licensure.

Front Porch Builders LLC is one of 101 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in Milton, 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.
