Gary William Brend

What this record tells you

Gary William Brend holds Florida licence MRSA2338, a MRSA classification which authorises work as a licensed mold assessor. An "R" prefix means the licence is registered, which limits work to the local jurisdictions that accepted it rather than the whole state.

This licence was first issued in 2015, which makes it an established licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 25% of the 142 active mold inspection licences based in the St. Petersburg & Clearwater area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2020. That is 11 years of continuous licensure.

Gary William Brend is one of 16 active mold inspection licences registered to an address in New Port Richey, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 07/31/2028. 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.
