Scott-Burnett Inc

What this record tells you

Scott-Burnett Inc holds Florida licence RM0040183, a RM classification which authorises work as a certified/registered air conditioning or mechanical 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 1981, which makes it one of the longest-held licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 2% of the 191 active hvac & ac repair licences based in the Tallahassee area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2011. That is 45 years of continuous licensure.

Scott-Burnett Inc is one of 137 active hvac & ac repair licences registered to an address in Tallahassee, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Mark R Scott 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.
