West Palm Beach is historic El Cid and Flamingo Park homes and luxury towers along Flagler Drive on the Intracoastal. 1920s historic homes and new high rise towers.
Houses in El Cid and Flamingo Park can trap moisture in crawl spaces, plaster and original wood windows, while tower units tend to hide growth behind kitchen cabinets and inside air handler closets. We build containment, remove contaminated materials and HEPA clean what stays, with a licensed mold remediator on our team guiding the work. We also stop the moisture source so the growth has no reason to return. An independent assessor can confirm the results, and we are glad to work alongside one.
We handle mold remediation in West Palm Beach 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 City of West Palm Beach Building Division. One company, one project manager, one schedule.
Before we arrive
What to do, and what to leave alone, while the crew is on the way.
Do this now
- Turn off the air conditioning if mold is near a vent, closet air handler or return.
- Close the door to the affected room.
- Find and stop any obvious water source.
- Keep kids, pets and anyone with asthma out of the area.
Avoid
- Do not spray bleach. It does not fix porous materials and can spread spores.
- Do not paint over mold.

Questions, answered
Should I test for mold before calling you?
If you can see it or smell it, you already know there is a problem. Testing still helps define scope or confirm the work, and we can point you to independent assessors.
Does mold work in a historic home need special handling?
The steps are similar, but plaster and old wood call for careful removal and cleaning. If exterior elements are involved, historic district review may come into play.
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.
Do I have to sign over my insurance benefits?
No. Florida banned assignment of benefits on residential property policies issued on or after January 1, 2023, and we do not ask for one. You contract with us directly, stay in control of your claim, and we give your adjuster the documentation.
