Ivan Balanovsky

What this record tells you

Ivan Balanovsky holds Florida licence MRSR2357, a MRSR classification which authorises work as a licensed mold remediator. An "R" prefix means the licence is registered, which limits work to the local jurisdictions that accepted it rather than the whole state.

This licence was first issued in 2012, which makes it a long-held licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 29% of the 400 active mold remediation licences based in the Fort Lauderdale area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2019. That is 14 years of continuous licensure.

Ivan Balanovsky is one of 39 active mold remediation licences registered to an address in Hollywood, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 07/31/2028. Florida licences renew on a fixed cycle, and a licence that is not renewed moves to delinquent status — which is why the expiry date matters if you are planning work close to that date. Confirm the current status on the state portal before signing a contract.
