Licensing and permits
Florida licenses mold assessors and mold remediators through DBPR, and the law generally bars one company from both assessing and remediating the same job. Water extraction firms commonly carry IICRC certification.
Tips before you hire
- Stop the water and document everything with photos before cleanup.
- Call your insurer early, and read any agreement before signing over benefits or authorizing work.
- Get an independent mold assessment so the remediation scope is set by someone not doing the work.
