About this company

Adkins Property Restoration is an owner-operated firm based in Plantation, Florida, where Mike Adkins runs both the business side and shows up on job sites. The company handles mold inspection, remediation, water damage restoration, fire damage restoration, and storm damage repair for residential and commercial properties across South Florida.

One thing that stands out: they use a third-party firm (Mold Testers 561) for air quality testing and lab analysis, which adds a layer of independence to their testing results even though the same company does the remediation. Their website describes a process using HEPA filters, moisture meters, thermal imaging, dehumidifiers, and antimicrobial treatments. Multiple reviewers confirm Mike catches mold that other inspectors miss, and Darin Spivey noted the drywall cuts were precise enough to make rebuild easy.

Mike Adkins owns and operates the company out of Plantation. The business model is hands-on: reviewers consistently describe Mike as the person who answers the phone, shows up for the inspection, and stays through the remediation. David Szura called after hours on a Monday and Mike was at his door by 9 AM Tuesday. Ellen Eisen reported Mike working nights and Sundays for emergencies.

A 5.0-star rating across 132 Google reviews is rare for any service company. Many of those reviewers are Local Guides with substantial review histories, which makes the rating harder to dismiss as inflated. The volume and consistency point to a company where the owner's direct involvement keeps quality control tight.

Review consensus

What reviewers praise

Mike Adkins dominates the reviews. Reviewers praise his direct communication, honesty about what work is actually needed (Rebecca Kirchdorfer says he told her she did not need mold testing), and willingness to work around schedules including nights and weekends. Darin Spivey highlighted surgical precision in drywall removal. Matthew Hanley noted Mike found issues other companies missed. Christa Jane Mordechai, who works in real estate contracting, called out fair pricing relative to quality. Kelly Rothman said Mike's team accomplished more in one day than a previous company did in five. Jay was praised alongside Mike by Christopher Sitko for strong work ethic.

What low reviews reveal

0 found across 132 total reviews at 5.0★. No complaints to report in the recent review window.

Pattern worth noting

The consistent thread across 132 reviews is that Mike Adkins is personally present on nearly every job. This owner-operator model explains both the perfect rating and the potential scheduling constraint. When one person is the quality control, the ceiling is high but the capacity is limited. Several reviewers mention Mike going out of his way -- delaying personal trips, working weekends, responding after hours -- which is sustainable for a small operation but worth watching as the company grows.

Named staff

Mike / Michael Adkins (owner, remediation lead -- positive across dozens of reviews). Jay (crew member -- positive, praised for work ethic by Christopher Sitko).

Bottom line

Ask for Mike directly and confirm he will be on your job. His personal involvement is what drives the reviews. Get a written scope of work before remediation starts, and since Adkins does both testing and remediation, consider getting a second opinion on the testing results from an independent inspector if the quoted remediation cost is high.

Keep in mind

  • Adkins does both mold testing and mold remediation, which creates a financial incentive to find problems they can fix. They use a third-party lab (Mold Testers 561) for air quality analysis, but the initial inspection and scope of work come from the same company that bills for the remediation.
  • The website claims to serve all of Florida, but the named service pages cover Plantation, Sunrise, Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Port St Lucie, and Deerfield Beach. If you are outside Broward or Palm Beach County, confirm they actually serve your area before scheduling.
  • This is a small, owner-operated company. Mike Adkins is personally involved in most jobs, which is a strength for quality but means scheduling depends heavily on one person's availability.
  • The website is heavy on marketing language and light on specifics about certifications, team size, or years in business. Ask directly about credentials and how many crews they run.
