From Our Founder, Jonathan Porter

For twelve years, I built and operated a successful restoration company, learning the intricacies of property damage recovery and indoor environmental challenges.

My work encompassed everything from water and fire restoration to mold remediation and air duct cleaning. Day after day, project after project, my team and I helped property owners recover from various types of damage.

As my team and I completed thousands of projects over the years, a pattern began to emerge. Through our extensive experience in mold remediation and air quality work, I started noticing a significant gap in the market.

While many companies offered restoration services, there was a critical shortage of trusted specialists who could provide thorough, professional assessments of mold and indoor air quality (IAQ) issues.

This realization led me to a pivotal decision in 2024: founding Gulf South Environmental Services. This new venture would take all my years of experience and channel them into a more specialized, focused direction.

Rather than continuing as a general restoration company, I designed Gulf South Environmental Services to focus exclusively on professional mold and IAQ assessments.

This specialization allowed my team to concentrate our expertise where it was needed most, serving both residential and commercial clients with in-depth evaluations.

Today, my company, Gulf South Environmental Services, stands ready to help clients facing various mold and indoor air quality challenges.

Whether they're dealing with health concerns and allergies, working through real estate transactions, or recovering from water damage, our specialized assessments provide the crucial information needed to understand their situation and determine the best path forward.
