About this company
Construemax is a restoration company and general contractor based on Orange Blossom Trail in Orlando. They handle water damage, fire damage, mold remediation, emergency tarping, and storm recovery, and they also do full remodeling and reconstruction. That end-to-end scope — from emergency water extraction through kitchen rebuild — is their defining trait. Most restoration companies hand off the rebuild to a separate contractor. Construemax keeps it in-house.
Their mold page lists inspection and assessment, remediation and removal, and moisture control as their three service pillars. The water damage page describes a process that moves from extraction through dehumidification to structural repair and mold prevention. Nothing on the website names specific equipment brands or testing methods beyond general references to pumps, vacuums, and dehumidifiers.
Edson Brito IV and Edson Brito II (referred to on the website as Edson Quarto and Edson Segundo) co-own the company. They hold Florida General Contractor License #CGC1520510 and Mold Remediator License #MRSR850. The company claims 20 years in business, with a copyright notice dating to 2005. Several Portuguese-language reviews and the website's "Ir para o conteudo" navigation suggest a Brazilian-American ownership with ties to that community.
Google shows 80 reviews at 4.5 stars. That is a solid but not exceptional rating for a restoration company of this size in the Orlando market.
Services
Service area
Construemax is headquartered in Orlando, Florida at 325 N. Orange Blossom Trail. The website references "Central Florida" broadly but does not list specific cities or counties served. One reviewer mentioned a Fort Lauderdale job, suggesting they travel beyond the Orlando metro area for some projects.
Review consensus
Luis (also spelled Louis) stands out across the most recent reviews. Armand Cortellesso, Jasmine Quiceno, sdkanabar, Richard Schonert, Scott Johnston, Larry Buckley, and Jane Friedlaender Wdowiak all name him for clear communication, attention to detail, and willingness to advise on options. Edson draws praise from longer-tenured reviewers (Carolyn G, TJ, Fay Hickle, Michael Scitney, Francisco Orchilles, Terri Relick) for responsiveness, insurance navigation, and hands-on project management. Yuri appears in two reviews (TJ, Sarah Thompson) as a reliable on-site lead. Robson and Michael earned a mention from Larry Buckley for showing up on time and cleaning up daily. Tiffany drew one review praising her punctuality. Chris drew one review from Jay Young praising his technical skill. Across the board, reviewers highlight fast response times, consistent communication, and the ability to handle the full restoration-to-rebuild cycle under one contract.
1 found across 80 total reviews at 4.5 stars. Andre Leirias describes a 2020 water intrusion job where Construemax said they would handle everything with the insurance company. Five years later, in 2025, Leirias received a collections notice — he had signed the work order and never received an invoice in the intervening years. He reports his credit was damaged. The complaint describes a billing and communication breakdown rather than a workmanship issue. The owner did not respond to this review.
The owner response rate on recent negative reviews is 0% — the single 1-star review from the last 18 months received no reply. For a company that emphasizes communication in its positive reviews, the silence on this billing dispute is a gap worth noting. On the positive side, the volume of reviews naming specific staff (Luis, Edson, Yuri, Robson, Michael, Tiffany, Chris) suggests a stable team with individual accountability, which is uncommon in the restoration industry.
Edson (owner/project manager — positive across multiple reviews). Luis/Louis (project manager/contact — positive across 7+ reviews). Yuri (on-site lead — positive in 2 reviews). Robson (crew member — positive in 1 review). Michael (crew member — positive in 1 review). Michael Smith (technician — positive in 1 review). Tiffany (staff — positive in 1 review). Chris (technician — positive in 1 review).
Ask for Luis or Edson as your point of contact — they draw the most consistent praise for communication. Get every charge, payment deadline, and insurance responsibility spelled out in writing before work begins, given the billing dispute in the review record. If you need mold work, bring in a separate inspector first to confirm the scope.
Keep in mind
- Construemax does both mold testing and mold remediation. That creates a conflict of interest — the same company that tells you mold exists also profits from removing it. Consider hiring a separate inspector to confirm the scope before signing a remediation contract.
- One reviewer reported that a 2020 water damage job resulted in a collections notice arriving in 2025, with no invoice sent in the five years between. The owner did not respond to the review. If you hire Construemax, get written confirmation of all charges and payment terms before work starts.
- The website describes their mold process in general terms but does not name specific testing methods, containment setups, or post-remediation clearance procedures. Ask for details before signing.
- Several positive reviews come from single-review Google accounts, which makes them harder to weigh. The strongest reviews come from established Local Guide accounts.
- Pricing drew a comment from one 5-star reviewer who said the cost felt steep on a fixed income. Get a written quote with line items before committing.
