Santiago Villa

What this record tells you

Santiago Villa holds Florida licence MRSR5394, 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 2025, which makes it one of the newer licences for the trade in this area. Roughly 87% 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 1 year of continuous licensure.

Santiago Villa is one of 13 active mold remediation licences registered to an address in Tamarac, 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.
