Mold Removal

Professional Mold Removal Services in Canada

Mold thrives in persistent moisture and is a threat to both property and health. You must have noticed musty odours and unusual stains on the walls and floors; the chances are high that it could be mold. Mould is a fungus that grows in moist environments and increases rapidly by releasing its spores into the air. When mold is left untreated, it compromises the structural integrity by breaking the organic composition of wood and promoting corrosion in metal components.

At ONT Restoration, we offer all types of restoration services from water damage to mold removal. We are a team of IICRC licensed experts, offering quality restoration work at your convenience.

ONT Restoration’s Mold Remediation Process

At ONT Restoration, we offer mold removal, black mold removal services, and we handle the insurance claim process from start to finish. We understand your mental condition at the time of damage, so trust us and our team will move forward with each step and protocol.

The property is assessed for signs of mold. Air samples are taken to determine the toxicity and type of mold. The sample is used to understand the spore count that determines the contamination level.

The property is secured, sealed, and contained to prevent mold from spreading to other areas. The team will wear proper protective suits, gloves and masks before entering the area. This will prevent spores from spreading.

To maintain the proper filtration and ventilation, negative air machines that have a high-efficiency particulate air filtration are sealed to an opening. This does not let the contaminants escape during the clean-up process. During the process, air conditioners, fans, and heaters are turned off to prevent the mold from spreading.

The mold problem is removed, ensuring limited exposure. The mold treatment method used is decided based on the severity of the problem and the area where the mold growth is detected. The mold is disposed of safely.

Environmentally friendly and natural techniques are used to improve the quality of air indoors. Materials and property belongings are deodorized.

After finishing all the procedures and mold removal, we make sure that contamination has not spread, and verify air quality and other standards.

Why Mold Removal Is Critical

A green or black mold growth in your property should not be taken lightly. You will need the help of a mold removal company to treat the issue. The professionals inspect the premises and come up with a plan of action to eradicate the microorganism, as mold remediation process is unique to every case. The mold treatment process is determined by the severity and the size of the contamination. The clean-up can take from a few days to months in extreme cases, like in the case of black mold removal. Hiring an expert is thus non-negotiable, as they have the right materials and are trained on the correct procedures of safely removing mold.

What is Mold and Mold Damage

Mold is a fungus that grows rapidly in damp, warm and humid environments. Mold reproduces by releasing tiny spores into the air that settle on a surface and spread rapidly. There are hidden places where mold can grow in hidden spots like beneath the floor carpet, on suspended ceiling and behind wallpaper panelling.

Mold growth can take only 24 hours to 72 hours to spread in the air or can be carried in objects, under its preferred conditions (dampness and warmth). Mold damage can be explained as the deterioration of the structural material and has the potential to cause health issues.

How Mold Spreads In Commercial, Industrial and Residential Spaces

Mold often forms due to dampness in the kitchen, bathroom and basement. There are many other factors contributing to mold damage in commercial and residential properties. In commercial properties, beneath heavy industrial machines, high foot traffic on carpet, a leaky roof, HVAC system issues (poor cleaning, hidden moisture inside duct), presence of organic material (woods, fabrics) that retain moisture, lead to mold.

How It Spreads

  • Daily indoor activities

Daily use of the kitchen, washroom, aquariums, fish tanks, and indoor plants adds to dampness in commercial or residential spaces. A poor HVAC system in the commercial building can also lead to dampness. 

  • Plumbing leaks

Unattended plumbing leaks, spaces beneath the sink are moisture-prone areas, and poor air ventilation leads to fungus growth. Condensation is the key factor for the spread of mold spores in the area.

  • Leaks in the foundation, flooring or walls

Any cracks in the structure, after water damage, create space for mold. Once mold starts to grow, it will spread rapidly over the place and deteriorate the material, thus threatening the structural integrity.

  • Flooding

Sudden rains, snow melting can lead to basement flooding and water damage in commercial and residential properties. 

Effects Of Mold

  • On Health     

People are at risk to their health and wellness when living in a damp area or when exposed to mold. Exposure to mold and damp conditions may lead to health issues for the people living in that affected area. It is harmful for infants, kids, elderly people, pregnant women or anyone with low immunity.

  • On Structures

Mold and damp conditions damage the floor, walls and ceilings. It can leave a dark stain on the surfaces, it can easily rot the wooden surface of the house and cause corrosion to metal components. Ultimately, it is affecting the structural stability of both commercial and residential buildings.

The team at ONT Restoration is professional, has years of experience to remove mold damage. We carefully pre-test and post-test the contamination and ensure completely before handing it to the client. Black mold is the most common and toxic mold found in Canadian properties, and we are experts in black mold removal.
