Mold Assessment in West Palm Beach, FL


M&P Consulting Engineers provides mold assessment and moisture intrusion investigation for property owners, condominium associations, and insurers throughout West Palm Beach and Palm Beach County. Jonnatan R. Mendez, PE, SI, is a licensed mold assessor and a structural engineer, so the assessment follows the water back to where it enters the building. Call 866-531-7621.

Mold Inspection in West Palm Beach Starts With the Water

Mold is a moisture problem first. Our mold inspection in West Palm Beach documents where growth is, how far it extends, and which leak, envelope failure, or humidity condition is feeding it.


Removing mold without fixing the water source means paying for remediation twice. The assessment gives the remediator a defined scope and gives the owner a repair list for the cause.

An Assessment Kept Separate From the Remediation Bid

Florida law bars the company that assesses a building for mold from remediating that same building within 12 months. That keeps the scope honest: the report says what needs removing and why, with no remediation contract riding on the answer.

Historic and Coastal Building Stock in West Palm Beach

Much of El Cid and the Northwood historic districts was built between the 1920s and early 1940s, with stucco walls, tile roofs, and plumbing and envelope details from that era. Older material and aging waterproofing make these buildings worth a careful look after any leak.


In a condominium, water from one unit, a balcony, or a roof often shows up as mold in another. We trace that path so the association and the owners know where the water entered and whose repair it is.

Standing Water and Mold in West Palm Beach

Parts of West Palm Beach, including sections of Northwood Shores, hold standing street water for days after heavy rain and king tides. Buildings nearby can take that moisture in through low openings, weep holes, and ground-floor walls, not only through the roof.


We check the envelope, roof, windows, and plumbing that apply to the building in front of us, whichever source turns out to be feeding the growth.

Common Questions About Mold Assessment in West Palm Beach

  • Is Jonnatan licensed to perform mold assessments in Florida?

    Yes. Florida requires a state license for mold assessment work over 10 square feet, and Jonnatan R. Mendez holds a mold assessor license alongside his PE and SI credentials.

  • Can the company that inspects for mold also remove it?

    Not in Florida. A mold assessor's company cannot remediate the same building within 12 months of assessing it, so you hire a separate licensed remediator to work from our scope.

  • Our building is in one of the historic districts. Does that change the assessment?

    It changes what we look for. Original stucco, tile roofing, and older plumbing runs behave differently than newer construction, so we account for the building's age and materials when we trace the water.

  • How quickly can you get to a West Palm Beach property?

    Call 866-531-7621 with the address and what you are seeing, and we will give you a timeline on the call.
