Best for

  • Daytona Beach or Orlando homeowners dealing with mold after a water leak or flood, who want one company to handle both problems.
  • Spanish-speaking homeowners looking for a restoration company that communicates in their language — most reviews are in Spanish.
  • Property buyers in Central Florida who want pre-purchase mold testing with lab analysis before closing.
  • Homeowners who need mold prevention maintenance, including annual air sampling and HVAC evaluation.
  • Residents dealing with storm or fire damage who also suspect mold growth from lingering moisture.

About this company

Restoration Army operates out of Daytona Beach and runs a multi-service restoration operation covering Orlando and Tampa as well. They handle water damage, mold, fire, and storm damage under one roof. The company leans into a military identity — they hire veterans and donate profits to Homes For Our Troops and Operation Homefront.

On the mold side, they offer testing, assessment, remediation, and prevention. Their website describes air sampling sent to accredited labs, surface sampling, thermal imaging for hidden moisture, and a containment process using negative air pressure and HEPA filtration. They also describe antimicrobial treatment and dehumidification as part of their remediation workflow. They hold IICRC and NORMI certifications and reference Florida DBPR licensing for mold work.

The company also offers waterproofing, HVAC duct cleaning, and ongoing mold prevention maintenance — services that go beyond typical remediation-only firms. Their website pushes annual air sampling as a recurring service.

A perfect 5.0 rating across 38 Google reviews is unusual. The review volume is modest, and the majority of reviews are in Spanish, suggesting a strong base in Central Florida's Hispanic community. Over half the reviews contain no text, which limits what can be learned from them.

Review consensus

What reviewers praise

Reviewers who left text consistently mention fast response to water leaks and effective mold removal. Several describe full kitchen and bedroom restorations. Angey Ramirez highlighted hardwood floor salvage and help filing an insurance claim. Jorge Jacinto and Mariano Martin Mancasola praised the work crew and material quality. Werner Abdel noted quick resolution of a water leak. Multiple reviewers describe their homes as feeling new after the work.

What low reviews reveal

0 found across 38 total reviews at 5.0★. No 1-star or negative reviews exist in the last 18 months (0 found across 38 total reviews at 5.0 stars). Without negative reviews, there are no complaint patterns to report.

Pattern worth noting

The review profile has two notable characteristics. First, over half the reviews (20 of 38) contain no text — just a 5-star rating. Second, reviews cluster in tight date windows: 7 reviews in November 2020, 8 in May 2021, and several groups in January-February 2023. This clustering pattern, combined with the absence of any negative reviews, makes the review base harder to evaluate at face value. The Spanish-language dominance suggests the company draws heavily from Central Florida's Hispanic community.

Named staff

No individual staff members are named in any reviews. Reviewers reference the team and company generally.

Bottom line

With no negative reviews and limited text in the positive ones, the review record does not offer much to go on. The written reviews that do exist describe real restoration scenarios — water leak repairs, mold removal, kitchen work — but the overall profile is thin. If you hire Restoration Army, ask for references from recent mold-specific jobs and request before-and-after documentation.

Keep in mind

  • Restoration Army does both mold testing and mold remediation. That creates a conflict of interest — the same company that tells you whether you have a mold problem also profits from fixing it. Consider getting an independent assessment.
  • The company claims three locations (Orlando, Tampa, Daytona Beach), but the only physical address listed is in Daytona Beach. Ask where crews would actually dispatch from for your job.
  • All 38 Google reviews are 5-star with zero negatives. Over half have no written text. This makes it hard to evaluate the quality of their work from reviews alone.
  • Many reviews appear clustered in tight date ranges (multiple in the same week), which can be a pattern worth noting when evaluating review authenticity.
  • The website is heavy on general mold education and light on specifics about the company's own equipment, team size, or years in business.
