Water damage in Florida
What the rules say here
Florida regulates mold work and changed how insurance claims work in 2023. Both shape what a contractor can and cannot do for you.
Mold assessment and remediation licensing
Florida regulates mold assessment (MRSA) and remediation (MRSR) above 10 square feet and restricts one company from doing both on the same property, with statutory exceptions. Both licenses are public record; ask how those rules apply to your job.
Your policy expects you to act first
Homeowner policies require you to mitigate promptly: stop the source, dry the structure, prevent further damage. You do not wait for an adjuster to begin. What you do wait on is the insurer’s decision on what is covered; the contractor documents, the insurer decides.
Nobody can take over your claim anymore
Since January 2023, Florida policies cannot be assigned to a contractor (the assignment-of-benefits ban). A contractor works for you and invoices you; they cannot file, negotiate, or collect the claim in your place. Be wary of anyone who offers to.
Before anyone arrives
Ten minutes of the right moves now save days of drying later.
Do not
- Use a household vacuum on standing water.
- Turn on ceiling fans under a sagging, wet ceiling.
- Spray bleach on mold; it does not fix wet material and it makes the assessor’s job harder.
- Sign anything that gives a contractor rights to your insurance claim.
- Stop the water: the valve under the sink or behind the toilet, the water heater’s supply valve, or the main at the street or the meter box.
- Cut power to wet rooms at the breaker. Do not stand in water to do it; if the panel is in the water, leave it and call.
- Photograph and video everything before you move it: the water, the source, the floors, the furniture, the ceiling.
- Lift what you can: rugs, boxes, electronics, furniture legs on foil or blocks. Open cabinet doors under wet counters.
- Call your insurer to open the claim, then call. Do not wait for the adjuster to start drying; your policy expects mitigation now.
- Use the AC to help control humidity only if it is not the leak source, was not flooded, and is not suspected of containing mold. In Miami it is the biggest dehumidifier in the house; if it was flooded or may be contaminated, keep it off until a professional confirms it is safe.

Questions people ask
Should I wait for the insurance adjuster before drying?
No. Policies require prompt mitigation, and mold in Miami does not wait. Photograph everything, call your insurer to open the claim, and get drying started. The contractor logs moisture readings and photos from the first day, which is what the adjuster will want to see.
Who pays the contractor?
You do; the contractor invoices you for the work. Whether and how much your insurer reimburses is between you and your insurer. Since 2023 a Florida contractor cannot take an assignment of your claim, so anyone offering to "handle it with your insurance" is offering something the law no longer allows.
There is mold. What is the right order?
For anything over 10 square feet, a licensed mold assessor inspects and writes a protocol, a licensed remediator does the removal, and the assessor comes back to verify it. Florida restricts one company from doing both on the same property, with statutory exceptions, so they are normally two companies. Both come through this number.
Is the water dangerous?
Clean supply water is category 1. Water from an appliance, AC drain, or that has sat a day is category 2. Sewage, canal or surge water, and anything that has sat for days is category 3 and is handled with containment and protective gear. Say where the water came from when you call; it changes who comes and what they bring.
What does it cost?
What drives the number: the category of water, the square footage affected, how long it sat, the materials involved, how many days of drying equipment it takes, and whether mold testing and remediation are needed. The contractor gives you a written estimate after seeing it.
Do you help in Spanish?
Yes. Call in English or Spanish; every page is in both.
