Gulf Stream is a small, private town of oceanfront and Intracoastal estates, many in Bermuda and Mediterranean styles. Classic estates and large new homes built to strict architectural standards.
Bermuda and Mediterranean style estates have thick walls, tile roofs and layered interiors that can hide moisture until it shows up as a stain or a smell. A licensed mold remediator on our team leads every job here, sealing off the work area so the rest of the home and its contents stay clean. We remove what is affected, clean what can be saved and dry the structure so the growth does not come back. Entries and walkways are protected and the site is kept neat throughout.
We handle mold remediation in Gulf Stream from the first call to the final walkthrough. Demolition, debris removal and dumpsters run on our own crews and equipment, and licensed trades handle any permitted work through Town of Gulf Stream. One company, one project manager, one schedule.
Before we arrive

Questions, answered
Will mold work disturb the rest of the house?
We build sealed containment under negative air pressure so spores and dust stay inside the work area. Furniture and finishes outside it are covered and protected.
How do we keep mold from returning while we travel?
Keep cooling and dehumidification running, have drain lines and pans serviced, and arrange regular walkthroughs. We can point out where moisture sensors would do the most good in your home.
Are you licensed for mold remediation in Florida?
Yes. Barraza Industries holds a Florida Mold Remediator license and Applied Microbial Remediation certification. Florida requires a license for mold remediation over 10 square feet.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Our restoration lead holds Florida Mold Remediator License MRSR2859, Lead Renovator Certification 183166 and Florida DOH biohazard registration 13-64-1716182, with certifications in Water Damage Restoration, Applied Structural Drying and Applied Microbial Remediation. We carry $1M per occurrence and $2M aggregate general liability and issue certificates to HOAs, condo associations and property managers on request.
