Rick Tanner Builders Inc

What this record tells you

Rick Tanner Builders Inc holds Florida licence CVC56843, a CVC classification which authorises work as a certified solar contractor. A "C" prefix means the licence is certified — valid anywhere in Florida.

This licence was first issued in 2010, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 9% of the 53 active solar licences based in the Orlando area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2020. That is 16 years of continuous licensure.

This is the only active solar licence registered to an address in Eustis in the current DBPR extract — worth widening your search to the surrounding Orlando area when collecting comparison quotes. Richard Bradley Tanner 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.
