Mould Inspections

All of our mould inspections are carried out by our friendly experts who will gladly answer any questions during their examination of your premises. They are professionally trained to locate, identify and remediate all types of mould - visible and invisible.

Do not touch!

It is very important that you do not touch any items showing mould or disturb any suspected areas of your home before the inspector arrives. Do not “clean up” for him. Any movement of articles carrying mould can spread the spores, which are invisible as they become airborne. Only an inspector can know for sure if the job falls into the do-it-yourself category for the home owner or if, in fact, it requires professional treatment and protective equipment.

What we do

Why we inspect

Home owners, home buyers, or home inspectors hired by home buyers call us when they observe evidence of mould:

Spots that are visible to the naked eye
Crumbling paint and plaster
Musty odour
Water stains
Allergy type symptoms in occupants - headaches, itchy eyes, runny nose, sneezing.

What causes mould?

Flooding of basements or bathrooms.
Leaks in roofs and bathroom fixtures.
Humidity in basements or lower floor recreation rooms or storage areas.
Poor ventilation in bathrooms.

Where mould hides

Carpeting makes a great hiding place for mould to grow unnoticed.
Cold rooms when they heat up in the summer months or are not ventilated.
Bathroom tiles that are cracked or tub caulking that is not kept clean.

Mould inspection

A mould inspection is carried out when occupants detect mould. Inspections are done by a qualified professional who is trained to recognize the severity of the problem, and has access to the necessary equipment and labour to restore the premises to a healthy mould-free environment.

Home inspection

General home inspections are usually conducted during the buying or selling process of a home to evaluate structural aspects of the property.

Regular mould inspections can help keep your indoor environment healthy and prevent mould from spreading in hidden areas. Mould inspections are as important to maintaining your home as keeping the chimney clean, getting the furnace checked, fixing the roof and repairing cracked foundations.
