Mold removal services in Toronto

For mold removal in Toronto homes and businesses, Safesite contains the area, removes the mold and the materials it has grown into, and fixes the moisture that caused it.

We're a water damage company first, so we find the leak or humidity problem behind the mold instead of just cleaning the surface, with IICRC-certified technicians on every job.

How we remove mold

  • Inspect and find the moisture source, including behind walls and under floors
  • Seal the work area with poly containment so spores don't spread through the house
  • Run HEPA air filtration during the work
  • Remove moldy drywall, insulation and trim; clean and treat the framing
  • Fix or flag the moisture problem, then rebuild

Where we find it in Toronto homes

Basements after a flood or a slow foundation leak. Bathrooms without a working exhaust fan. Behind baseboards and drywall where a pipe has been dripping for months. Cold rooms and crawl spaces that never get air. If you can smell it but can't see it, it's usually inside a wall.

When to call a professional

A small patch on a bathroom ceiling can be cleaned. Call us when it keeps coming back, covers more than a small area, follows a flood or leak, or is inside drywall, insulation or a cold room. Removing it without containment can spread spores into the rest of the house.

Questions

Is black mold dangerous?

Any mold growing indoors should come out, whatever the colour. People with asthma, allergies or weak immune systems are most affected. We remove it under containment either way.

Will the mold come back?

Not if the moisture is fixed. That's the part most cleaning jobs skip, and it's the part we start with.

Can you remove mold from drywall?

Mold inside drywall can't be cleaned out; the affected section is cut out and replaced. See drywall mold removal.
