Mold Remediation for Boca Raton Homes
The most common mold call in Boca Raton is a home that sat closed for the summer. About 9% of the city's housing units, roughly 4,500, are vacant for seasonal or occasional use (Census ACS 2019-2023), and a home closed through the humid months with the AC off or set too high can grow mold in weeks. The rest follow the water: an AC closet with a clogged drain line, a slow leak behind a vanity, a roof that took on water in a storm. About 43% of homes here predate 1980, so plenty of plumbing has decades of service behind it. Leave the growth alone and book the free in-person inspection.

What to Do About Mold
Your price is confirmed before work starts, with no hidden fees.
Leave It Alone
Do not scrub, sand or tear out moldy material yourself. Disturbing it sends spores through the house.
Find the Water
Mold follows moisture. Note any leak, drip or damp spot nearby, and have a plumber or roofer fix the source.
Photograph It
Take photos of the growth and any water stains nearby, for your records and your insurer.

What Mold Remediation Costs
Mold is not priced until someone has seen how far it has spread and what is feeding it. That is why the first step is a free in-person inspection.
Removing mold without fixing the moisture behind it means it comes back, so look for the source too: a leak, a clogged AC drain line, or a house closed up with the air off.
Inspections are free. All offers
- Free
- in-person inspection before anything is priced.
- Source first
- Mold returns unless the moisture behind it is fixed.
- Do not disturb
- Scrubbing or sanding mold yourself spreads it through the house.

Before You Close Up for the Summer

Condos and Associations
About 43% of Boca Raton housing units are in buildings with 10 or more units (Census ACS 2019-2023). If the moisture comes from a common pipe or the unit above, the association needs to be part of the plan. Our nearest office is in Delray Beach.

It can. An air handler running while moldy material is disturbed carries spores to every room on the system, which is why the area should be left alone until it has been inspected.
