How this page is built
Nobody pays to appear on this page, and position cannot be bought. A company is listed only where the official register showed it holding a current license when we checked on August 23, 2026.
- Ranked by years licensed and license scope.
- Left off anything expired on the date we checked, or carrying any status other than current.
- Not published at all until at least 3 plumbing companies pass that check. At most 10 appear - a cut through the ranking, not a further test.
The full method, including what each register does and does not publish.
Franklin County plumbing licensure at a glance
Florida pages are county pages: DBPR locates each license by county code, so every figure here counts Franklin County as a whole. 6 current DBPR plumbing licenses are filed in the county - 2 (33.3%) certified, valid anywhere in Florida, and 4 registered, valid only in the local jurisdiction that certified the holder's competency - a difference in what the license permits, which is why each listing shows its tier. DBPR publishes a real original licensure date, so tenure is measurable and is what these pages rank on: the median Franklin County license has been held 21 years, the longest-standing dates to 2000, and 5 licenses have been held 20 or more years. Expirations here are the state's renewal structure, not a company fact: DBPR renews on statewide two-year cohorts, and the county's licenses fall on 3 cohort dates, the nearest August 31, 2026. One gap we will not paper over: the extracts carry no insurance, no bond and no phone for any licensee, so no Florida listing shows one - that is a gap in the state's file, not a finding about any contractor. DBPR cannot link straight to a record, so every listing above shows its number for you to paste into DBPR's licensee search. How we verify.
