What this listing says
Bradenton-area homeowners and businesses dealing with water, mold, or storm damage who want an owner-operated restoration company with a 1-hour response time and financing options.
Best for
- Bradenton, Sarasota, and Manatee County homeowners needing emergency water extraction or mold removal with same-day response.
- Property owners recovering from hurricane damage who need a company that handles demolition, remediation, and rebuild under one roof.
- Commercial property managers in the Tampa Bay area who need a restoration company that coordinates directly with insurance.
About this company
AmPm Restoration is a locally owned restoration company based in Bradenton, Florida, serving the Suncoast region for over 10 years. Owner Oren runs the operation hands-on, frequently showing up to assess damage himself and staying involved through project completion. They hold a Florida mold remediation license (MRSR4840) and are IICRC-trained for water restoration.
Their primary draw is speed. They advertise a 1-hour response time, and reviews consistently confirm same-day or next-day arrivals, even during hurricane surges after Helene and Milton. They handle the full cycle from emergency water extraction and drying through mold removal and rebuild, and they work directly with insurance companies on claims. They also offer third-party financing through Hearth for homeowners who need to start work before insurance or FEMA payments come through.
With a 4.8-star rating across 156 Google reviews, AmPm has an unusually clean record. Only one negative review exists in the last 18 months, and it contains no text or details. The volume of positive reviews from Local Guides and repeat customers suggests the rating is genuine rather than inflated.
Services
Service area
Headquartered in Bradenton, Florida. Lists service coverage across Manatee, Sarasota, Pinellas, Hillsborough, Charlotte, Hardee, and DeSoto counties, including Bradenton, Sarasota, Palmetto, St. Petersburg, Tampa, Lakewood Ranch, and Venice. That is a wide area for a single-location company.
Review consensus
Oren draws the most mentions by far. Reviewers describe him answering calls personally, arriving within the hour, providing honest assessments, and even declining payment for consultations where no work was needed. Miguel gets praise for managing crews and keeping a positive attitude. Luis is mentioned for efficient water damage cleanup. Emanuel earned a callout for mold work that exceeded expectations. Multiple reviewers highlight the company's communication throughout projects and their willingness to explain what they are doing and why.
1 found across 156 total reviews at 4.8★. The single recent 1-star review from Angie Perez sanchez (January 2025) contains no text and no details. The reviewer has only 2 total Google reviews, no Local Guide status, and no likes on this review. The business did not respond. Without any description of what went wrong, there is nothing actionable here.
The owner's direct involvement is the dominant theme across reviews spanning multiple years. Oren personally handles initial assessments, answers his phone during emergencies, and follows up through project completion. This owner-operator model appears to be the main driver of the high rating. The business did not respond to its one negative review, but with only one negative in 18 months, the zero-percent response rate is not meaningful as a pattern.
Oren (owner — praised across dozens of reviews for responsiveness, honesty, and hands-on involvement). Miguel (crew manager — praised for positive energy, politeness, and managing crews well). Luis (crew member — praised for fast, efficient water damage work). Emanuel (crew member — praised for mold remediation work). Enrique (crew leader — praised for fast, high-quality hurricane restoration). Gio (crew leader — praised for beachfront property work). Chris (staff — praised for answering questions about flood protection). David (staff — praised for painting and home project work). Kevin (mentioned by name in one review for hurricane response).
This is a strong pick for water or mold emergencies in the Bradenton-Sarasota area. Ask for Oren directly if you want the owner involved in your assessment. Since they do both testing and remediation, bring in an independent mold assessor if you want an unbiased diagnosis before committing to a remediation scope.
Keep in mind
- AmPm does both mold inspection and mold remediation. That means the same company diagnosing the problem also profits from fixing it. Consider getting an independent mold test before signing a remediation contract.
- Their service area covers six counties from Pinellas to Charlotte, which is a wide footprint for a locally owned company. Confirm response time availability if you are outside Manatee or Sarasota County.
- The website advertises a free mold inspection, but the scope and deliverables of that inspection are not clearly defined. Ask what the inspection includes and whether you receive a written report.
