Paul Davis Restoration of Tampa

A mold inspection and mold remediation are two different jobs, and here's why that matters: an inspector's job is to find mold and tell you what's there, while a remediation contractor's job is to remove it and charge you for the work. When the same company does both, they have a financial incentive to find more mold or recommend unnecessary treatment. That's why industry standards say these services shouldn't come from the same business. In Tampa, where humidity averages 76% and rain is frequent, mold problems are common enough that you'll want an unbiased inspection first.

Paul Davis Restoration of Tampa can help, but make sure you understand what service you're actually getting. A standalone mold inspection in this region typically costs between $200 and $600 and gives you an honest assessment. Before you hire anyone for mold-related work in Tampa, verify they hold a valid MRSR license from the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation by checking myfloridalicense.com. Ask Paul Davis Restoration of Tampa upfront whether they're performing an inspection only or if they also do remediation work.
