B & T Metal Works Inc

What this record tells you

B & T Metal Works Inc holds Florida licence CAC1815308, 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 2007, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 35% of the 223 active hvac & ac repair licences based in the Ocala & The Villages area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2012. That is 19 years of continuous licensure.

B & T Metal Works Inc is one of 120 active hvac & ac repair licences registered to an address in Ocala, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Jeffrey Earl Tackett 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 08/31/2028. 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.
