Walter C Jr Malin

What this record tells you

Walter C Jr Malin holds Florida licence CAC057121, 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 1995, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 5% of the 785 active hvac & ac repair licences based in the Fort Myers & Cape Coral area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 31 years of continuous licensure.

Walter C Jr Malin is one of 108 active hvac & ac repair licences registered to an address in Lehigh Acres, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 08/31/2028. 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.
