# Verified Remediation

> Find mold remediation professionals near you. Every listing is identity-checked, with state licenses, insurance, and reviews verified where available.

Verified Remediation connects homeowners with verified mold remediation
professionals. We combine state license records from Florida, Texas, New York and Louisiana
with Google business data, and add insurance and certification documents where
a company supplies them and our team verifies them.

## What "verified" means here

Listings carry up to three signals. Which ones are available depends on the
state and on the provider, so these are reported per listing rather than
claimed for the catalog as a whole:

- **State Licensed**: We hold the state's license records for FL, TX, NY and LA
  (FL DBPR, TX TDLR, NY DOL, LA LSLBC). We re-check Florida's full state license list every week and the Texas state database every day.
  In Florida, Texas, New York and Louisiana we also check license expiration dates every day.
  For DC we hold a December 2025 copy of the DC Department of Energy & Environment's public list of licensed mold professionals. It names people and their companies, with no license numbers or expiration dates, and we haven't re-checked it since. A DC license belongs to a person, so an entry on that list never makes a business State Licensed here.
  Where we do not hold the state's license records, which is most states, a
  listing carries this signal only if a license was added to that listing
  individually.
- **Insured**: General liability insurance, confirmed by our team from a
  certificate of insurance. Verified for a small minority of listings.
- **Rated**: Google rating of 4.0+ with at least 5 reviews.

## Provider Tiers

- **Tier A (Clinical Grade)**: State license verified where we hold the state's license records; General liability insurance on file (COI verified); Rated 4.0+ stars from 5+ reviews
- **Tier B (Advanced Verified)**: State license verified where we hold the state's license records; General liability insurance on file (COI verified); Building toward full verification with reviews
- **Tier C (Verified Pro)**: State license verified where we hold the state's license records; Insurance not yet verified

Where we do not hold the state's license records, no tier requires a license:
Tier A is verified insurance plus a 4.0+ rating from 5+ reviews, Tier B is
verified insurance, and Tier C is every other listing, many of them highly
rated.

## Coverage

- 10,000+ providers across all 50 states + DC
- City-level pages for 100+ metro areas
- Both mold remediation and mold assessment/testing professionals

## Key Distinction

We explain why the company that tests for mold should not be the same company
that removes it, and we label companies that do both as full service.
