Why Professional Mould Remediation in Ottawa is Essential
Mould is not just an unsightly problem — it’s a serious threat to health and property. Left untreated, mould spores can cause chronic respiratory issues, severe allergies, asthma attacks, and even compromise the structural integrity of your home or business. In Ottawa, fluctuating temperatures and humidity levels create the perfect environment for mould to grow undetected.
At Aucoins, we specialize in professional mould remediation in Ottawa, using certified methods to ensure your property is safe, clean, and protected against future infestations.

Our Full-Service Mould Remediation Process
At Aucoins, we approach mould problems with precision, speed, and safety. Here’s how we do it:
1. Detailed Mould Inspection
Our certified technicians begin by performing a full property inspection, utilizing moisture meters, thermal imaging, and air quality testing to identify visible and hidden mould growth areas.
2. Customized Remediation Plan
No two mould infestations are the same. We create a property-specific remediation strategy, targeting the root cause of moisture issues and mould growth.
3. Containment and Air Filtration
We set up airtight containment barriers and deploy HEPA air scrubbers to prevent mould spores from contaminating unaffected areas during removal.
4. Complete Mould Removal and Decontamination
Using Health Canada-approved, eco-friendly antimicrobials, we kill mould at its roots. Any irreparably contaminated materials, such as drywall or insulation, are safely removed and replaced.
5. Post-Remediation Verification and Clearance
After remediation, we conduct third-party air sampling and provide a clearance certificate, confirming your property meets health and safety standards.
Common Areas for Mould Growth in Ottawa Properties
- Basements and crawlspaces
- Attics and rooflines
- Bathroom walls and ceilings
- Kitchen cabinets and flooring
- Around windows and doors
- HVAC systems and ductwork
👉 Important: If you smell a musty odor but see no mould, hidden colonies may already be thriving behind your walls.
