Restoration 1 of Tampa Bay

A 5-star rating across 139 Google reviews tells you that plenty of people in Tampa have trusted this company, but it doesn't tell you everything. What matters is whether the contractor who shows up at your home is properly licensed and knows how to handle mold in your specific situation. Restoration 1 of Tampa Bay operates in a climate where humidity averages 76% and rain is frequent, so they understand the moisture problems that older homes face. The median Tampa home was built in 1978, which means many residents are dealing with mold in structures that have had decades to develop vulnerabilities.

Before you call anyone, verify that Restoration 1 of Tampa Bay holds a current Florida MRSR (Mold Remediation Service Provider) license from the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation.
