Mould Removal in Fort Saskatchewan

Most mould we expect to see in Fort Saskatchewan starts with water: a leak under a sink, a basement that took on water, or seepage through a foundation wall. Fix the water, then deal with the mould. We handle the mould part, and make sure the water part is really done.

Water first

Mould grows where there are leaks, high humidity or condensation. If there’s still active water or wet material, drying comes first. Our sister company Water Damage Edmonton handles water removal and structural drying. Removing mould from a wall that’s still wet just means it grows back.

Seepage through the foundation

If the basement gets damp every spring or after heavy rain, the water may be coming through cracks in the foundation. That needs its own fix. Edmonton Crack Repair seals foundation cracks. Once it’s dry and sealed, we remove the mould and the basement can be finished again.

How we remove it

• Moisture readings first, to confirm the area is dry.
• Containment so spores don’t reach the rest of the house.
• Removal of mouldy drywall, insulation, carpet and underpad.
• HEPA cleaning of the remaining structure.
• Clearance testing before anything is rebuilt.

Bleaching it isn’t enough. Alberta Health Services says biocide-only treatment such as bleach is not acceptable remediation.

Older materials

If the drywall, flooring or insulation might contain asbestos, licensed abatement professionals test and remove it first. Our crews don’t do abatement.

Insurance

Whether mould is covered depends on your policy and what caused the water. Ask your broker. We provide photos, readings and written findings for your claim.
