Professional Mold Testing in Ottawa
Professional mold inspections, moisture investigations and targeted testing for residential and commercial properties throughout Ottawa.
Mold Is Often a Symptom of a Bigger Problem.
Mold thrives where moisture is present; a roof leak, plumbing failure, foundation seepage, condensation or inadequate ventilation can create conditions that allow mould to grow on building materials.
Sometimes the growth is visible. Other times, the warning signs are subtle: persistent musty odours, water staining, damp materials or recurring condensation.
A professional mold assessment focuses on identifying observable growth, investigating the source and determining what additional testing or investigation may be appropriate. Because removing mould without correcting the moisture problem can allow it to return.

We Don't Just Look at the Stain. We Understand How the Water Got There.
Through our background in professional roofing, siding, insulation, ventilation and exterior renovations, we’ve encountered extensive moisture damage inside real buildings.
We’ve seen failed flashing allow water behind siding. We’ve opened roof assemblies containing wet insulation and deteriorated sheathing.
We’ve investigated ventilation deficiencies that contribute to attic condensation. We’ve encountered damaged framing, concealed water intrusion and building materials that have deteriorated over time.
That construction experience gives us a practical understanding of how moisture enters buildings and why mould-related problems can persist.
Finding visible mould is one part of the investigation. Understanding the building is another.
