Joseph Earl III Crane

What this record tells you

Joseph Earl III Crane holds Florida licence MRSA3214, 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 2019, which makes it an established licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 36% of the 39 active mold inspection licences based in the Ocala & The Villages area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2021. That is 7 years of continuous licensure.

This is the only active mold inspection licence registered to an address in Williston in the current DBPR extract — worth widening your search to the surrounding Ocala & The Villages area when collecting comparison quotes. Joseph Earl III Crane 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 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.
