What Types of Mould Are Common in Victoria and Southern Vancouver Island?
In this coastal, high-humidity environment, certain types of mould show up more frequently than others:
-
Stachybotrys chartarum (Black Mould): often found in drywall, wood, and insulation after water damage. Can produce mycotoxins that affect human health.
-
Aspergillus: a widespread mould that can grow on walls, insulation, and in HVAC ducts. Some strains may affect people with weakened immune systems.
-
Cladosporium: frequently found on wood, painted surfaces, and fabrics. Common in bathrooms and basements.
-
Penicillium: known for its blue-green colour, Penicillium thrives in water-damaged materials like wallpaper, carpets, and insulation.
These moulds can all contribute to poor air quality, respiratory symptoms, and allergic reactions. If you can see or smell mould—or suspect it's growing—call Local Remediation Ltd. for professional mould removal in Victoria and Southern Vancouver Island.
Our Mould Abatement Process
When it comes to mould, early action makes all the difference. If you see visible mould, smell something musty, or suspect hidden contamination—call Local Remediation Ltd. right away. We'll guide you through the next steps and ensure your home or building is safe again.
Here’s what the full process typically looks like:
Step 1: Call Us
If you’ve spotted mould—or even suspect it—give us a call. We’ll ask a few questions, help assess the urgency and schedule a site visit if needed.
Step 2: On-Site Inspection
One of our experienced technicians will inspect the affected areas. We'll look for signs of water intrusion, measure moisture levels, and determine how far the mould may have spread.
Step 3: Third-Party Testing (If Required)
For larger or uncertain cases, we bring in a third-party environmental consultant to conduct a mould survey. This ensures full transparency and avoids any conflict of interest.
Step 4: Risk Assessment & Containment Plan
We determine whether the mould is low, moderate, or high risk, then create a remediation plan that complies with WorkSafeBC regulations. This includes setting up:
-
proper containment barriers (6-mil poly)
-
HEPA-filtered negative air machines
-
decontamination zones to prevent cross-contamination
Step 5: Safe Mould Removal
Our certified team removes contaminated materials (like drywall, insulation, flooring), double bags them for disposal, and thoroughly cleans all affected areas using industry-standard HEPA filtration.
Step 6: Final Cleaning and Clearance
The site is cleaned to a dust-free, safe condition. For high-risk jobs, we coordinate with a third-party hygienist to perform clearance testing before the area is reoccupied.
