Mold Remediation & Assessment in Florida

288 certified mold remediation firms on file in Florida, including 4 holding a current Florida mold licence. Credentials below are verified against the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) and IICRC's Certified Firm registry.

Florida licenses mold work. Individuals only — florida issues no company-level mold licences must be licensed for 10 square feet — definitional: work at or below 10 sq ft is not “mold remediation” as the statute defines it. A licensed assessor may not remediate — and a remediator may not assess — the same structure within 12 months, in either direction, and the bar reaches the licensee's company: §468.8419(1)(d), (2)(d), Fla. Stat. Note the express carve-out in both paragraphs for a certified contractor classified as a Division I contractor under §489.105(3), which is broad enough that many general contractors fall outside the bar entirely.

Mold Remediation in Florida: common questions

Do I need a licensed mold remediation contractor in Florida?

Florida requires a licence for 10 square feet — definitional: work at or below 10 sq ft is not “mold remediation” as the statute defines it (§468.8411, Fla. Stat.), issued by Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR). A licensed assessor may not remediate — and a remediator may not assess — the same structure within 12 months, in either direction, and the bar reaches the licensee's company: §468.8419(1)(d), (2)(d), Fla. Stat. Note the express carve-out in both paragraphs for a certified contractor classified as a Division I contractor under §489.105(3), which is broad enough that many general contractors fall outside the bar entirely.

What certifications do Florida mold remediation firms actually hold?

Across the 288 Florida firms on file for this work, the most common credentials are WRT (Water Damage Restoration Technician) held by 280 firms, AMRT (Applied Microbial Remediation Technician) held by 276 firms, FSRT (Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration Technician) held by 220 firms, ASD (Applied Structural Drying Technician) held by 216 firms. 268 hold three or more certifications. Certification describes verified training rather than the services a firm chooses to advertise.

How were these Florida firms verified?

Every certification was checked against IICRC's own Certified Firm registry, and every licence against the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) file, not against the firm's marketing. 48 of the 288 appear in two independent registries and carry a cross-verified marker. Checked August 14, 2026. Where a state publishes only current licensees, a firm absent from that file is reported as absent — never as unlicensed.

Which Florida cities have the most mold remediation firms?

Tampa leads with 17, followed by Jacksonville (15), Miami (14), Orlando (12). We build a page wherever a city has three or more certified firms; smaller markets are listed below that without their own page.
