Barrett Builders Inc

What this record tells you

Barrett Builders Inc holds Florida licence RB0004855, a RB classification which authorises work as a certified/registered building or residential contractor. 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 2025, which makes it one of the newer licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 92% of the 449 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Tallahassee area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2008. That is 1 year of continuous licensure.

Barrett Builders Inc is one of 23 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in Monticello, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Ronald Earl Barrett additionally holds 3 other active Florida licences in our records, which can indicate a contractor qualified across more than one trade or entity.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 08/31/2027. 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.
