Not every mold remediator has the knowledge, experience, and equipment necessary to properly remove the microorganism. Last year, Florida’s Senate addressed the growing need to certify Florida mold remediators by passing Bill 2234. This bill mandates all Florida mold remediators pass certification exams before conducting mold removal. In addition, the bill also forbids the same company from performing the “testing or assessment” and the “remediation” in an effort to further protect you, the consumer. The details can be found in this article, which was published in the Palm Beach Post.

The FMA invited leaders in the industry, including Craig Kobza, to share best practices. Craig explained in great detail his experiences with window and door retrofit projects. He also emphasized the importance of proper structural attachments, proper waterproofing of the openings and the need for better collaboration between general contractors and window manufacturers in the field during the installation process. Craig’s technical expertise on this subject and building envelope sciences along with his experience with construction defect litigation kept the audience very attentive and focused.
