Transcontinental Builders Inc.

What this record tells you

Transcontinental Builders Inc. holds Florida licence CAC016266, a CAC classification which authorises work as a certified/registered air conditioning or mechanical contractor. A "C" prefix means the licence is certified — valid anywhere in Florida.

This licence was first issued in 1980, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 1% of the 709 active hvac & ac repair licences based in the St. Petersburg & Clearwater area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2015. That is 46 years of continuous licensure.

Transcontinental Builders Inc. is one of 139 active hvac & ac repair licences registered to an address in St Petersburg, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Albert B Martell additionally holds 2 other active Florida licences in our records, which can indicate a contractor qualified across more than one trade or entity.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 08/31/2026. 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.
