Michael Earl Hasty

What this record tells you

Michael Earl Hasty holds Florida licence RF0066690, a RF classification which authorises work as a certified/registered plumbing 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 1995, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 7% of the 109 active plumbing licences based in the Panama City area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 31 years of continuous licensure.

Michael Earl Hasty is one of 13 active plumbing licences registered to an address in Chipley, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Michael Earl Hasty additionally holds 1 other active Florida licence 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.
