Mold can be sneaky in the way it infiltrates homes and other properties. When mold spores enter your indoor space via vents, windows, and doors, they're not an immediate health risk. But as the spores settle and proliferate, a new problem will arise, but not become apparent right away. Many backsplashes simply cover drywall and wooden structures behind them, which can make them susceptible to hidden mold infestations. Once you start to see signs of mold or if you've recently had water damage in your Toronto kitchen, you may need mold removal in Toronto. If you see visible mold or signs of serious water damage, contact the Canada's Restoration Services team for water damage remediation and a mold inspection in Toronto. Our IICRC-certified specialists provide prompt, reliable, and compliant restoration from water damage to mold removal in Toronto and throughout Canada.
How to Know if You Have Mold You Can't See

A visible mold inspection in Toronto won't identify invisible mold. If you suspect that there is mold in your home, but you can't find it visually. Book an air quality test or talk to Canada's Restoration Services team, who will refer you to a reliable 3rd party Environmental Hygienist for a no-conflict assessment. Once you receive your air quality report and recommendations, our team can proceed with inspections and reliable mold removal in Toronto.
What Does Mold Look Like?
Mold can come in a few variations around your home. Most notably, there is black mould, which can cover a range of different species, including toxic black mould. If you see discolouration on your backsplash, around your kitchen, or in between the tiles in the grout, you are likely dealing with a mold infestation. Mold can be found in earth-tone colours such as green, white, yellow, brown, and even pink. You can also identify that you may need air quality testing for mold by the pungent musty odour spores emit.
Can You Remove Backsplash Mold Yourself
The best course of action is to book a mold inspection in Toronto. You may be able to remove mould from the non-porous surfaces with bleach, vinegar, and other home products, but there is a good chance that the mould has seeped deeper into the walls, especially if they are drywall, grout, or wood beneath them. Porous materials are susceptible to mold and not very responsive to at-home treatments. When you book a mold inspection in Toronto for visible mold our team will help you understand what you're dealing with and the best approach for your property and health.
Is There a Bigger Water Damage Problem?
The primary catalyst for mold infestations, especially more serious incidents, is water damage in Toronto. Whether that's a plumbing leak, appliance overflow, or flooding, elevated moisture levels facilitate the spread of mold. If you are noticing that mold is spreading through your kitchen and backsplash, there could be a more serious problem altogether. Look for signs of peeling paint, discolouration, warping building materials, and suddenly increasing water bills.
