Provider snapshot
What this listing says
Tampa Bay area property owners dealing with water damage or mold from AC failures, pipe breaks, or hurricane aftermath who want a restoration company with IICRC technicians and direct insurance billing.
Best for
- Tampa and Hillsborough County homeowners dealing with water intrusion that has led to mold growth, since FCRG handles both the water extraction and mold work in one scope.
- Property managers overseeing apartment portfolios who need a single vendor for recurring water loss calls and unit dryouts.
- Condo owners recovering from hurricane or storm damage who need a company experienced with post-storm mold mitigation and insurance documentation.
About this company
Florida Cleaning & Restoration Group is a Tampa-based restoration company with offices in both Tampa and Dade City. They hold Florida State Mold Remediator's License #MRSR3545 and staff IICRC-trained technicians. Their primary identity is water damage restoration, with mold remediation as a secondary service.
They send mold testing samples to an independent environmental laboratory rather than running in-house lab work, which adds a layer of separation between their remediation work and test results. They offer financing, bill insurance companies directly, and claim a 45-minute response time in most areas. Their service list runs broad: water damage, fire damage, mold remediation, sewage cleaning, odor removal, disinfecting, carpet cleaning, tile cleaning, and upholstery cleaning.
Seth appears to be the owner or lead operator. Multiple reviews spanning from 2021 through 2025 name him directly. One reviewer, a state-certified general contractor, says he has used Seth's team repeatedly for water-damaged and moldy job sites. Another reviewer notes the company has worked for their family for over 10 years. Several post-Hurricane Ian reviews from late 2022 describe fast mobilization and mold mitigation for damaged condos.
Services

Headquartered in Tampa, Florida with a second office in Dade City. They primarily serve Hillsborough County and the broader Tampa Bay area.

0 found across 25 total reviews at 5.0★. No 1-star reviews found. With 25 total reviews at a 5.0 rating, there are zero negative reviews in the last 18 months to evaluate.
A perfect 5.0 across 25 reviews is unusual. The review volume is modest and several reviews come from single-review accounts. The post-Hurricane Ian cluster in late 2022 accounts for a significant share of the total. This is a small operation that likely generates most of its work through referrals and repeat commercial clients rather than high-volume residential marketing.
Seth (owner/lead — praised repeatedly across years for responsiveness, knowledge, and communication). Joey (technician — praised in 2025 reviews for detail, professionalism, and quality work). Amber (staff — praised for professionalism and skill). Junior (technician — praised alongside Joey for knowledge and quality). Christian (technician — named once for professionalism). Tanner (technician — named once for professionalism). Tyler (technician — named once for professionalism).
With zero complaints to evaluate, the risk picture here is incomplete rather than clean. Ask Seth directly about typical timelines and get your own independent mold assessment before committing to remediation. The repeat business from contractors and property managers is the strongest signal that the work quality holds up.
Keep in mind
- They do both mold testing and mold remediation. Their website says testing goes through an independent lab, but the company still controls which samples get taken and where. Ask who the third-party assessor is and whether you can hire your own.
- They claim to service the entire state of Florida, but their offices are in Tampa and Dade City and their reviews cluster in Hillsborough County and nearby areas. If you are outside the Tampa Bay region, confirm response times and any travel fees.
- Their website lists carpet cleaning, tile cleaning, stone polishing, upholstery cleaning, and textile decontamination, but the pages for those services return 404 errors. These ancillary services may or may not be actively available.
