ABOUT US

Avoid the Damage Pains and Call Hanes

When water, mold, smoke or sewage gets into a Florida property, the expensive mistakes happen in the first 48 hours — the wrong scope, the wrong dry-out, the wrong assumption about what is behind the drywall. We start with evidence, then act on it.

What We Do

Two things, and the order matters.

We find out what is actually wrong. Licensed assessment and accredited lab testing for mold, indoor air quality, water intrusion, smoke and soot, sewage and bacteria. You get a written report with findings, photos, lab data and a defined scope — the document your contractor bids from and your adjuster works from.

We put the property back. Emergency water mitigation, structural drying, fire and smoke restoration, and full contents packout, cleaning and storage. Documented from the first moisture reading to final verification.

Most companies do one or the other and guess at the rest. Alan Hanes has spent 18 years on the diagnostic side of Florida losses, which is why the restoration side is measured instead of estimated.

Mold Assessment & Testing 

When you suspect mold in your home or building, knowing where it is, why it is there, and how extensive the concern may be is an important first step.

Smoke & Soot Cleaning

Smoke and soot can affect much more than the area where a fire occurred. Smoke can travel through a property, leaving residues and odors on walls, ceilings, flooring, contents, HVAC systems, and other surfaces.

Odor Remediation

Unwanted odors can remain long after the original source has been removed. Smoke, fire damage, water damage, mold-related conditions, sewage, and other environmental conditions can leave odors throughout a property and may affect materials, contents, HVAC systems, and other areas. 

Contents Cleaning

When a property experiences water, fire, smoke, soot, or other damage, the contents inside can be affected as well. Furniture, clothing, household belongings, documents, electronics, and other personal property may require cleaning, evaluation, restoration, or specialized handling.

Contents Packout & Storage

When a property experiences water, fire, smoke, soot, or other damage, personal belongings may need to be removed from the affected areas before restoration work can begin. 

Why Hanes

Licensed, Not Self-certified

Florida Mold Assessor MRSA #3646, issued by the Department of Business and Professional Regulation. Florida licenses this work for a reason, and the license number is on every report.

Independent Testing You Can Rely on

Florida law bars a mold assessor from remediating a structure it Assessed within 12 months. We treat that as a feature. Our findings are not a sales document for our own removal work.

Reports That Hold Up

Photographs, moisture readings, lab results, and a scope specific enough to bid. An accredited lab handles our analysis. Water work follows ANSI/IICRC S500 and mold work follows S520 — named standards, not "industry best practice."

One Responder, Whole Picture

Air, water, structure and contents assessed by the same person who has seen how Florida humidity, slab construction and storm exposure actually behave.

Owner-operated

Alan Hanes is on the job. The person who inspects your property is the person who writes the report and takes your call about it.
