## Veteran-owned

1st Class Facility Services is a veteran-owned business, built on the standards of military service: show up when you say you will, take ownership of the job, and do it right the first time.

That's what **"You Deserve 1st Class"** means to us. When water is coming through your ceiling or mold is showing up in a closet, you shouldn't have to chase a contractor for answers.

## Licensed for mold work in Florida

Florida licenses mold assessors and mold remediators separately, and Dan Mustelier holds both licenses from the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. That means we understand both sides of a mold job. We offer assessment and remediation as separate services and follow the state rule that keeps them separate on the same property.

## Part of the 1st Class Family of Trades

1st Class Facility Services brings several trades under one name for property and facility managers who'd rather make one call than five. 1st Class Restoration is the restoration side of that family. For other facility needs, visit [1stclassfs.com](https://1stclassfs.com).

You Deserve 1st Class
