Which business and responsible person will do the work?

TDLR’s company application distinguishes the assessment consultant and remediation contractor as responsible-person roles, with an in-state office and required insurance or permitted alternatives.

The individual remediation-contractor route separately addresses training/experience, application, background and examination. Construction experience, a company application or brand training is not that individual’s issued credential. Apply the actual covered-work and exemption conditions.

Keep the assessment and cleanup assignments lawful

TDLR’s FAQ describes same-project separation even when both licences are held, with a stated qualification for a school-district employee working on its project. It also explains that small-project work by a licensed person is not automatically outside the duties.

The actual assessment, protocol/work plan, remediation, notification and record requirements must fit the project. Small area, homeowner involvement or a general restoration contract does not establish an exemption or a notification exception.

Price the actual property and assigned roles before treating assessment and cleanup as one delivered service. Drying, rebuilding, lead, asbestos, clearance and insurance-adjusting work require their separate scope and authority; a combined quote does not supply them.

Scope

  • Defined Texas mold scope only; no actual person/company eligibility, exemption, project clearance or general restoration permission.

Next step

Establish the lawful assessment and remediation assignments before quoting the combined mold job.
