Mould Remediation

Mould doesn’t wait. Neither should you.

Professional mould assessment and remediation backed by building science.

IICRC Certified WorkSafeBC BBB Accredited

The Problem

Mould is more than unsightly — it causes respiratory issues, allergic reactions, and structural damage. It grows where moisture hides: behind walls, under flooring, in HVAC systems.

Surface cleaning is not remediation. Without identifying and eliminating the moisture source, mould returns. Many homeowners spend money on surface treatments only to find the problem coming back within weeks or months.

Proper mould remediation requires understanding building science — how moisture moves through structures, where condensation forms, and what conditions allow mould to thrive. Treating the symptom without fixing the cause is a waste of time and money.

Our Process

1

Assessment & Testing

Visual inspection, air quality testing, and moisture mapping identify the full extent of mould growth and the underlying moisture conditions driving it.

2

Containment

Negative air pressure and sealed barriers prevent mould spores from spreading to unaffected areas during remediation. This is critical for protecting the rest of your property.

3

Remediation

HEPA filtration removes airborne spores while affected materials are treated with antimicrobial agents or removed entirely. Every surface is addressed to IICRC standards.

4

Source Correction

We fix the moisture problem — whether it is a leak, inadequate ventilation, poor drainage, or condensation issue. Without this step, mould will return.

5

Clearance Testing

Third-party verification confirms that mould levels have returned to safe, normal levels. This independent testing gives you documented proof that remediation was successful.

What To Do Right Now

Disturbing mould releases spores into the air, which can spread contamination to other areas and increase health risks. Leave visible mould undisturbed until professionals can contain and remove it safely.
Close doors to the affected room and minimize traffic through the area. This limits the spread of spores to other parts of your building while you wait for professional assessment.
Bleach does not kill mould on porous surfaces like drywall, wood, or fabric. It may remove surface discolouration but leaves the root system intact. The mould will return, often within days.
If you have a dehumidifier available, run it in the affected area to reduce moisture levels. This will not solve the problem, but it slows mould growth while you arrange for professional remediation.
Write down when you first noticed the smell or visible mould, and any recent water events — leaks, flooding, condensation problems, or plumbing issues. This history helps our team identify the moisture source faster.

Why HydraClean

  • Building science approach identifies the root cause of moisture, not just the visible mould
  • Full containment protocols prevent cross-contamination to unaffected areas during remediation
  • Third-party clearance testing provides independent verification that your property is safe
