Water Damage Restoration & Mould Removal in North York
Our shop is on Consumers Road, so North York is home ground. We are usually there in minutes rather than the hour.
North York runs from 1950s and 60s bungalows through Don Mills post-war planning to the condo towers along Yonge and Sheppard. The older stock has original clay drains and unfinished or owner-finished basements.
Most North York callouts are sump pump failures, backed-up floor drains in the older bungalows, and burst supply lines in the Yonge corridor towers.

We work to the IICRC S500 standard for water damage restoration and the S520 standard for mould remediation. Every job is documented with daily moisture readings, photographs and a written scope, which is why adjusters approve our work without delay.

How the insurance side works
Water damage is the most common home insurance claim in Ontario, and how the claim is handled usually matters more to your bill than the work itself. We document the loss from the first hour: moisture readings, photographs, a written scope, and a daily drying log. That is the evidence an adjuster needs to approve the work without arguing about it.
We bill your insurer directly. In most cases the only money you hand over is your deductible, which on Ontario policies commonly sits between $500 and $2,500.
Which losses are covered depends entirely on where the water came from. A burst pipe or a failed appliance is normally covered under a standard policy. Water coming up through a floor drain is sewer backup, which is almost always a separate endorsement you have to have purchased. Water entering from outside during heavy rain is overland flood, which is another endorsement again. A single storm can produce all three at once, which is why adjusters care so much about the source.

Common questions
How quickly can you reach North York?
Our shop is on Consumers Road in North York, so this is the fastest area we serve. In most cases we are on site well within 45 minutes.
Do you work in the Yonge and Sheppard condo towers?
Yes. We handle in-suite losses and water that has travelled between floors, and we coordinate access with building security and property management.
My basement is flooded. What should I do first?
Stay out of the water if it is near outlets, appliances or the electrical panel, and have the power cut first. If you smell gas, leave the house before calling. Photograph everything before you move it, and do not start pulling up carpet or cutting drywall until the loss is documented.
What will flooded basement cleanup cost me?
If the loss is covered, usually just your deductible. We bill your insurer directly and deal with the adjuster on your behalf. For uninsured work we provide a written quote before we start, and the fastest way to keep the cost down is to call early, because material that is dried in place does not have to be replaced.
