Mold Licenses Are Not One-Size-Fits-All<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mold remediation involves three separate jobs, each of which requires a specific license. A mold assessment contractor will inspect and evaluate your property to determine the presence of mold. If there is an infestation, a mold remediation contractor will head up the project using mold abatement workers in his employ.<\/p>\n<p>Since mold generally develops due to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sternmold.com\/blog\/2019\/06\/12\/how-can-you-prevent-mold-growing-moisture-in-your-indoor-environment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">excess moisture<\/a>, you&#8217;ll need to find and address that situation. Assessment, remediation and abatement licensees are forbidden by law to complete\u00a0that job, which must be done by a county-licensed home improvement contractor.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Mold Remediation Is a Two-Company Job<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Under mold licensing laws, the same person or company can&#8217;t perform both assessment and remediation on a single job. This also holds true when an individual owns an interest in two separate companies. A searchable database listing licensed mold contractors is available on New York State&#8217;s Department of Labor website.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.
