Leith Francis Finnegan

What this record tells you

Leith Francis Finnegan holds Florida licence MRSR2344, a MRSR classification which authorises work as a licensed mold remediator. 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 2012, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 30% of the 30 active mold remediation licences based in the Gainesville area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2021. That is 14 years of continuous licensure.

This is the only active mold remediation licence registered to an address in Micanopy in the current DBPR extract — worth widening your search to the surrounding Gainesville area when collecting comparison quotes.

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.
