Edward Mccarthy

What this record tells you

Edward Mccarthy holds Florida licence MRSR4712, 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 2023, which makes it a relatively recent licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 65% of the 124 active mold remediation licences based in the Fort Myers & Cape Coral area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2020. That is 3 years of continuous licensure.

Edward Mccarthy is one of 3 active mold remediation licences registered to an address in Estero, 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.
