Richard P Hughes

What this record tells you

Richard P Hughes holds Florida licence MRSR3641, 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 2020, which makes it an established licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 52% of the 31 active mold remediation licences based in the Panama City area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 6 years of continuous licensure.

Richard P Hughes is one of 11 active mold remediation licences registered to an address in Panama City, 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.
