How do I check if a Florida mold contractor is licensed?

Search the contractor's license number — Florida mold licenses start with MRSR (remediation) or MRSA (assessment) — or their company name on our free verify tool. You'll see the license status, type, and expiration drawn from Florida DBPR records, with a link to confirm it on the state's official MyFloridaLicense.com registry.

Does a mold contractor have to be licensed in Florida?

Yes. Under Florida's Mold-Related Services law (Ch. 468, Part XVI, Fla. Stat.), remediation of more than 10 square feet requires an MRSR license and mold assessment requires an MRSA license (§468.8411, §468.8419). A contractor without the matching license isn't authorized to do that work.

Do other states require mold licenses like Florida does?

Most don't. As of 2026, only four U.S. jurisdictions license both mold assessors and remediators — Florida, Texas, New York, and Washington, D.C. — while 38 states have no statewide mold-professional license at all, so anyone can advertise the service. That's why Florida's MRSR and MRSA licenses, and confirming they're active, carry more weight here than in most of the country.

What can a Florida renter do if the landlord won't fix the mold?

Florida has no mold-specific rental statute, but a landlord must keep the unit habitable under Fla. Stat. §83.51. The renter puts the problem in writing, then sends the formal 7-day notice under §83.56 before withholding rent or ending the lease — and §83.64 bars a landlord from retaliating over the complaint. Document everything with dated photos, and get legal-aid advice before the riskier steps.

licenses last re-checked July 14, 2026

Every contractor's Florida license and IICRC certification is checked live against the source registry — not a badge we made up. Status comes straight from Florida DBPR: it can't be bought, and a contractor can't pay us to change it. Each profile shows exactly when we last checked, and links to where you can confirm it yourself. Curious what the license itself requires? Read Florida's mold license requirements. And because every Florida mold license renews by July 31, 2026, a status you checked last spring is worth re-confirming — see how the renewal wave works.

Just found mold — or water that won't dry?

Take a breath. You don't have to gamble on whoever knocks first. Find a Florida company whose license and certification we've already checked against the state registry — then you decide who to call. If water is still sitting, the clock that matters is the drying window, not a signature.

What are you dealing with?

Each path is built for that exact situation

What's your situation?

Pick the line that fits you and we'll point you to exactly the right help — not a generic form.

Is mold actually dangerous?

Probably less than the internet told you. The CDC notes that for most healthy people, household mold rarely causes serious illness. It matters more if there's an infant, asthma, or a weakened immune system in the home — we walk through who should actually be cautious, and why, without the scare tactics.

What will it cost?

Most Florida mold jobs run $1,100–$4,200

A small bathroom patch sits near the low end; a whole-room job after a slow leak runs higher. The single biggest driver is how much area is affected — not the company you pick. See where your job likely lands before anyone gives you a number.
