Water Damage and Restoration in Toronto

Water damage in your home can cause serious structural issues, mould growth, and costly repairs. The longer the water stays, the worse the situation gets, and the more expensive it is to clean it up. Even with standing water removed, the effects of water incursion can remain in the drywall, flooring, insulation, and even the HVAC system.

Our Water Damage Restoration Services in Toronto

As leading experts in water damage restoration in Toronto, we have developed an approach that addresses the biggest challenges immediately, minimizing the overall damage and allowing you to enjoy your space again. 

Emergency Assessment

When you contact us, we get to work immediately. We start by identifying the sources of the water and amending those so that no additional water enters your home. Following that, we will inspect the damage and create a restoration plan. We will review this plan with you, so rest assured we won’t do anything without your permission. 

Water Extraction and Drying

Using industrial pumps, we remove any remaining water in your home, and then we use fans and humidifiers to dry the affected areas. Along the way, we remove water-damaged furniture and other items and refer those for deep cleaning or disposal, depending on your preferences. 

Mould Removal and Sanitation

Our skilled teams clean mould and mildew from surfaces and treat them to prevent additional bacterial growth. You will find that they look and smell the way they did before the water damage occurred. 

Repairs and Restoration

Depending on the damage, flooring, drywall, and sometimes even ceilings need to be removed and replaced. We make sure the water damage restoration work we do is minimally disruptive; we will not gut your entire home if it isn’t necessary. For example, if there were only a few inches of water in the space, we probably wouldn’t need to remove all the drywall, but can cut, remove, and replace the bottom portion.

FAQs About Water Damage Restoration

What Are the Signs of Hidden Water Damage?

Water can enter your house in unseen ways. For example, it can run down inside your walls from a leaky roof or a damaged pipe. It can also creep into spaces that you rarely go into, like utility rooms or attic spaces. Watch for these signs:

  • Peeling or bubbling paint or wallpaper.
  • Musty odours with no obvious source.
  • Warped flooring or hardwood planks that turn up at the edges.
  • Unexplained stains on ceilings.

These signs may not indicate serious water damage problems, but you should have them checked out; call AtlasCare  for an expert’s assessment.

What Is the Process for Restoration from Water Damage?

Water damage restoration comprises the following steps:

  • Emergency water extraction to remove standing water as quickly as possible.
  • Drying and dehumidification to halt the process of mould growth.
  • Mould remediation and sanitization to protect your home and your family from harmful bacteria.
  • Restoring walls, floors, and ceilings.
  • Salvaging and restoring furniture, documents, and valuables whenever possible.
  • Odour removal.

How Can I Prevent Water Damage from Occurring?

Some events, such as localized flooding, are difficult to predict and hard to defend against. However, these improvements can prevent most water damage incidents:

  • Good basement waterproofing.
  • A high-quality backflow valve.
  • Adequate exterior drainage and grading.
  • A well-functioning sump pump with a battery-powered backup.
  • Proper seals around doors and windows.
  • Sound roofing.
  • Regular visual inspections, especially in areas of your home you don’t normally frequent.
