Certified Toronto mould inspections

Toronto housing is a mix of Victorian and Edwardian brick, postwar bungalows, and glass towers. Mould here often starts in a finished basement after a slow plumbing leak, behind a condo bathroom, or above a stained ceiling tile in an older office. Condensation on single-pane windows and poorly ventilated bathrooms is common in the older stock.

We take the samples in the home or workplace and identify the mould in our own laboratory — bulk pieces of drywall or wood, tape-lifts from a stained surface, and Air-O-Cell or Micro5 air samples compared with outdoor air. That matters in a dense city: indoor amplification is the question, not whether a spore exists somewhere in the downtown air.

High-rise mechanical rooms, copy rooms and water-damaged carpets are regular commercial calls. We do not remediate. We tell you what is growing and, if you ask, how a separate contractor should treat it. Rush reports are ready in 24 hours when a sale or occupancy cannot wait.

Species we identify, including black mould, are listed under indoor mould species. People also ask about black mould testing, buying a house, testing after a leak, and what a test costs.

We also inspect nearby: Vaughan, Markham, Mississauga, Richmond Hill.

We provide in Toronto:

In Toronto we inspect houses, condos and workplaces, then identify what is growing from bulk samples, tape-lifts and non-viable air cassettes in our laboratory. See sampling methods and IAQ testing.

Reports:

  • rush analysis (24 hours)
  • regular analysis (3-5 business days)

We will not remediate a Toronto mould problem — that would be a conflict of interest. We can consult on the remediation once you have the laboratory report.
