Working in Burnaby
Long rainy seasons and mild temperatures keep crawl spaces, attics and window frames damp for months. Ask about vapor barriers, ventilation and dehumidifiers along with removal, since mold tends to return quickly when the space never gets a chance to dry.
British Columbia's coastal mild-marine climate and concentration of port, film, and biotech operations along the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island shape what facility programs need to look like here.

Questions
Do you take mold inspection and remediation jobs in Burnaby?
Yes. Requests from Burnaby, Vancouver, Victoria, Surrey and the rest of British Columbia are handled the same way. Use the quote form on this page, or email [email protected] with the service, the address and the timing.
How much does mold removal cost?
It depends on the size of the affected area, where it is (an open basement wall is easier than an attic or a crawl space), how much material has to be removed, the containment needed, any testing, and what has to be rebuilt afterward. A small bathroom job and a full attic are very different projects. The only reliable number is a written quote after an inspection.
Why does mold keep coming back after cleaning?
Because the moisture is still there. Attic mold usually comes from warm, humid air leaking out of the house and poor attic ventilation. Basement mold comes from foundation leaks, condensation or high humidity. Unless the source is fixed, cleaned surfaces get recolonized. A proper quote covers both the removal and the moisture problem.
Can we stay home during mold removal?
Usually, yes. The work area is sealed off with plastic and kept under negative pressure, so air is drawn out through filters instead of into the house. For large jobs, or if someone in the home has a respiratory condition, you may prefer to stay elsewhere for a day or two. The specialist can tell you what to expect for your job.
Do you handle condos, rentals and small commercial buildings?
Yes. Owners of condos, duplexes, triplexes, small apartment buildings and small commercial properties are welcome to request a quote. Mention the building type and whether tenants live there so the right specialist reviews it.
