Housing stock in Houma
63% of roughly 15,193 housing units predate 1980, and 31% of occupied homes are rented. Age of stock matters for water losses because older assemblies dry more slowly and older supply lines fail more often — and tenure matters because who pays for remediation turns on it. Who pays →

Houma restoration: common questions
How many restoration firms are there in Houma?
We hold verified credential records for 3 firms in Houma. That is a count of what we could verify, not a count of every firm operating here — a firm we hold no record for is simply one we could not check.
What are Houma restoration firms certified in?
The credentials most often on record here are WRT (Water Damage Restoration Technician, 3 firms), AMRT (Applied Microbial Remediation Technician, 2 firms), ASD (Applied Structural Drying Technician, 2 firms), FSRT (Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration Technician, 2 firms). Each was checked against IICRC's own registry rather than the firm's marketing.
Does Houma require a licensed mold contractor?
Louisiana requires a licence for mold remediation projects of $7,500 or more (project value, not square footage) (La. R.S. 37:2150.1(4)(a)(iv)), issued by State Licensing Board for Contractors (LSLBC) — the rule is statewide, not local. A licensed mold remediation contractor may not “perform both mold assessment and mold remediation on the same property”, nor own an interest in both the assessing and the remediating entity — La. R.S. 37:2158(A)(23)(c)–(d). Unlike Texas and Florida, Louisiana licenses no mold assessors: the duty rides on the remediation licence, which is only required where the project value reaches $7,500, so below that figure neither the licence nor the separation rule attaches.
Is older housing a factor in Houma?
63% of Houma's roughly 15,193 housing units were built before 1980, and 9% before 1940. Older stock more often carries galvanised or cast-iron supply lines, cavity constructions that dry slowly, and materials that predate modern vapour control — which is context for a water loss, not a prediction about any particular building.
