Shayne Daniel Lester

What this record tells you

Shayne Daniel Lester holds Florida licence MRSA3959, 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 2021, which makes it a relatively recent licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 50% of the 26 active mold inspection licences based in the Lakeland & Winter Haven area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2021. That is 5 years of continuous licensure.

Shayne Daniel Lester is one of 11 active mold inspection licences registered to an address in Lakeland, 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.
