What this record tells you

Watson & Company of Central Florida Inc holds Florida licence CAC1815558, 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 26% of the 1,150 active hvac & ac repair licences based in the Orlando area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2016. That is 19 years of continuous licensure.

Watson & Company of Central Florida Inc is one of 25 active hvac & ac repair licences registered to an address in Groveland, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. James Anthony Watson additionally holds 1 other active Florida licence 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.
