Magdi Salim

What this record tells you

Magdi Salim holds Florida licence MRSR4238, 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 2021, which makes it a relatively recent licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 45% of the 164 active mold remediation licences based in the Tampa area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2022. That is 5 years of continuous licensure.

Magdi Salim is one of 5 active mold remediation licences registered to an address in Odessa, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Magdi Salim additionally holds 1 other active Florida licence in our records, which can indicate a contractor qualified across more than one trade or entity.

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.
