When a supply line or fire line breaks, water can run through floors and walls into neighbouring suites and basements. We extract standing water, check hidden moisture with meters and dry the structure to verified targets so that mould does not follow.
Under EPCOR's rules, the owner is responsible for sewer lines on the property, including a backwater valve, and EPCOR is responsible from the property line to the main. Homes built after 1989 are required to have a backwater valve, while earlier homes may not.
How We Handle Losses in Old Strathcona
Old Strathcona buildings face freezing winters, summer cloudbursts and plumbing failures in mixed-use blocks. Burst pipes, basement water, sewer backup and commercial leaks are losses we respond to here.
Mould usually follows water in Old Strathcona homes. A basement that took on water and was not dried to verified targets, a slow leak inside a wall, or a crawl space that stays damp through a humid summer can grow mould within days. We contain the area, remove affected materials, HEPA clean, and correct the moisture source. After a fire, we board up, remove firefighting water from the basement, clean soot, and treat smoke odour in ductwork and wall cavities so it does not return. Storm calls in Old Strathcona usually mean roof tarping, board-up, and drying ceilings and walls after wind-driven rain or ice dams. Every job is documented with photos and daily moisture readings, which your adjuster can review and which show when the structure is actually dry.
