Milton's winds damaged roofs across the county.
Many homes are 1960s–1980s concrete-block houses, condos and manufactured homes. Largo has many 1960s–1980s concrete-block homes, condos and some of the largest manufactured home communities in Pinellas County. Leaks under manufactured homes can soak subfloors and insulation before anyone notices, and condo leaks travel to units below. Concrete-block walls absorb wind-driven rain, and many homes that flooded during Helene and Milton in 2024 were repaired with mixed materials, so moisture readings matter. Many manufactured homes sit close to the ground with plumbing running underneath, where leaks soak insulation and subfloors, and older block homes have original cast-iron drains under the slab that crack and leak with age.
Licensing in Florida: Florida licenses mold assessors and mold remediators through the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR), and licenses contractors through the Construction Industry Licensing Board. Verify both with DBPR's license search.

Attic mold removal questions
Do I need a permit for repairs in Largo?
Cleanup and drying don't. Structural, plumbing and electrical repairs need permits from the City of Largo Building division.
Do I need flood insurance in Largo?
Homeowners policies exclude flood. Recent storms flooded many homes outside high-risk zones, so a separate flood policy is worth considering.
Is attic mold a deal-breaker when selling a house?
Not usually, if it's remediated and the cause is fixed with documentation. Buyers mainly want proof it was handled correctly.
