AfterMold Removal in Miami, FL
Mold removal in Miami typically costs $450 to $1,800 depending on how far the growth has spread and whether it has worked into drywall, baseboards, or HVAC ducting. Most jobs we handle are finished in one to two days, and we put your price in writing before any tools come off the truck. If you’re seeing black spots on walls, catching a musty smell near the AC closet, or noticing paint bubbling near a bathroom vent, call Wendell Restoration Miami at (850) 909-7064 and we’ll tell you exactly what we’re looking at and what it costs to fix. Mold removal is a targeted part of our broader Mold Remediation service, and in Miami’s humidity, it’s a call worth making the day you notice a problem.
We’re not the type of company that hides behind vague “it depends” answers. Wendell Restoration Miami has done honest, written-upfront mold work here since 2006, and every job follows the same rule: you get a price, a live arrival time you can track, and before-and-after photos texted to your phone so you can see exactly what we did. That’s the home service standard Blake Sorensen built this company on.
When You Need Mold Removal
Mold does not always announce itself with a big black patch on the ceiling. In Miami, it usually starts small and hidden: behind a baseboard, inside a closet adjacent to a bathroom, along the drip pan under an air handler. Here are the situations we see most often across Miami-Dade homes:
- A musty, earthy smell that won’t go away. This is often the first sign and it usually means mold is active somewhere you can’t see yet, like inside wall cavities or the AC closet.
- Black, green, or gray spots on drywall, ceilings, or baseboards. In Miami homes especially, condensation from high humidity feeds growth on cool surfaces like exterior walls and closet corners.
- Any past water leak, even one you think dried. A roof leak, a pinhole in a supply line, an AC overflow that soaked the closet: if the drywall was wet for more than 24-48 hours, mold spores in Miami’s air almost certainly found it.
- Paint bubbling, peeling, or staining with no obvious cause. Moisture trapped behind paint or wallpaper creates the exact environment mold needs.
- Allergy-like symptoms that ease when you leave the house. Sneezing, coughing, itchy eyes, or a scratchy throat that only bothers you at home may be a reaction to mold particles, especially for kids, older adults, or anyone with asthma.
- A condo or rental unit with a history of leaks. If you just bought a place in Brickell, Doral, or Kendall and the previous owner “took care of” a leak, we recommend a professional inspection before you move furniture in.
Any one of these is enough of a reason to call (850) 909-7064. We’d rather come out, tell you there’s no problem, and leave you with a clean bill of health than have you wait until a small patch becomes a multi-room remediation job.
Our Mold Removal Process
Wendell Restoration Miami follows IICRC, RIA, and IFA standards on every mold removal job. That means we use the same protocols and professional-grade equipment, including Dri-Eaz and Phoenix air movers and HEPA filtration, that commercial loss sites require. Here’s how a typical job runs, step by step:
- Inspection and written estimate. We walk the affected area, identify the moisture source, and give you a written price before any work starts. You know the number going in, and that number does not move.
- Containment setup. We seal off the work area with plastic sheeting and run HEPA-filtered negative air machines (including XPOWER units) so spores don’t spread into the rest of your living space while we work.
- Removal of affected materials. Mold-affected drywall, insulation, carpet pad, or baseboards are cut out and bagged for disposal. We remove the material with the mold embedded in it, rather than trying to “clean” porous surfaces that will never be truly clear.
- Antimicrobial treatment. All remaining surfaces in the work zone are treated with professional antimicrobial solutions to kill residual spores and prevent regrowth.
- HEPA vacuuming and air scrubbing. We vacuum all surfaces and run air scrubbers to pull airborne mold particles out of the room before the containment comes down.
- Photo documentation and final walkthrough. You get before-and-after photos by text, plus a digital invoice you can pay from a link on your phone. We walk you through what we did, what we found, and what to watch for going forward.
Mold Removal Pricing in Miami
Here’s a straightforward look at How Much Does Mold Remediation Cost? (2026 Price Guide) - Miami, FL, based on the size and location of the problem:
- Small isolated patch (under 10 sq ft): $450 to $900. A bathroom corner, closet wall, or a small area around a window AC unit.
- Medium area (10 to 30 sq ft): $900 to $1,500. A section of drywall behind a kitchen sink, a full closet wall, or mold along a baseboard run.
- Large area or multiple rooms: $1,500 to $3,500+. Mold spanning multiple walls, inside HVAC ducting, or under flooring.
- HVAC-related mold: $800 to $2,500 depending on whether the growth is in the air handler, ductwork, or condensation pan. AC-related mold is extremely common in Miami given how hard our systems run.
Your cost depends on a few honest factors: how far the mold has traveled behind the surface, whether drywall or insulation needs to be cut out and replaced, the size of the containment area, and whether the moisture source needs correction first. We can’t remove mold and leave the leak, because it will just grow back.
Something else worth knowing: every Wendell job comes with the 365-Day Done Right Promise. If it is not done right, we make it right. That promise is in writing on every single job, along with a free second visit if the repair fails. No fine print, no phone tree.

What Makes Wendell Restoration Miami Different
Most restoration companies in Miami make you wait for a callback. Then they give you a vague four-hour window, then they show up and “discover” the job costs more than expected. We built Wendell to be the exact opposite.

Live arrival times you can track. No waiting around all afternoon. You see when your background-checked, uniformed technician is on the way and exactly when they will be at your door.
Before-and-after photos by text. You do not have to trust us. You can see the work: the containment, the removal, the treatment, the final result.
365-Day Done Right Promise. If it is not done right, we make it right. In writing, on every job. Plus a free second visit if the repair fails.

We’re part of the Relay Home Co. family, founded in 2006, and while this location is independently owned and operated, every job follows the Relay Visibility Guarantee: you know who is coming, when they will be there, and exactly what it costs. That is not a marketing slogan. It’s how we work.
FAQs – Mold Removal
How much does mold removal cost in Miami?
Mold removal in Miami typically runs $450 to $1,800, with prices varying based on the affected square footage, whether drywall or insulation must be removed, and whether the moisture source needs repair first. Small isolated patches start near $450, while multi-room or HVAC-related jobs can exceed $2,500. Call (850) 909-7064 for a free written estimate with no obligation.
Can you remove mold the same day I call?
Yes. In most cases, we can have a technician at your Miami home the same day you call, and containment and removal often begin on the first visit. Emergency jobs, like a burst pipe that has left standing water, are always handled as a priority. Call (850) 909-7064 and we will tell you exactly when we can be there.
Is it cheaper to remove mold or just paint over it?
Painting over mold is always more expensive in the long run, because the mold continues to grow behind the paint and the problem spreads. A $600 removal job becomes a $3,000 remediation project in a matter of months in Miami’s climate. Mold removal is the cheaper fix every time.
Do I need to leave my home during mold removal?
For small, contained areas, you can usually stay in your home while we work. For larger jobs with extensive growth, we may recommend you stay elsewhere for a day while we complete removal and air scrubbing. We always tell you before work begins and keep you updated by text throughout the process. Call (850) 909-7064 and we’ll walk you through what to expect for your specific situation.
