GTA Restoration provides property inspection services for homeowners, landlords, property managers, condo corporations, and businesses across Toronto and the GTA. We investigate water leaks, damp materials, mould concerns, and signs of previous water damage.
First, we review the problem and inspect accessible areas. Then, we use moisture readings and thermal imaging where useful to help narrow down the cause and recommend the next steps.
A restoration-focused inspection looks at visible damage and possible moisture sources. Depending on your concerns, we check:
These findings help determine whether you need leak repairs, drying, further checks, or mould removal.
Water can travel through walls, ceilings, and flooring before damage appears. Therefore, the visible stain may not sit beside the source.
Moisture meters help us check damp materials. Thermal imaging can also reveal unusual temperature patterns, but it does not measure moisture directly or detect mould. Instead, we compare those patterns with moisture readings and visible signs.

In homes and condos, we inspect accessible areas around kitchens, bathrooms, basements, windows, and plumbing fixtures. Commercial inspections also consider washrooms, mechanical rooms, roofs, and shared systems.
In addition, we review when the problem occurs. Dampness after heavy rain may need a different investigation than moisture beside an appliance.
Before / after

Use the slider to see an infrared leak inspection of the house by dragging it left and right.
Roof leaks, poor drainage, foundation seepage, and plumbing faults can create similar signs. For this reason, we consider both the damaged area and possible water-entry points.
The City of Toronto’s basement flooding guidance explains common causes and prevention measures.
Visible mould and recurring odours can point to excess moisture. However, surface cleaning alone will not resolve an ongoing leak or dampness problem.
Our mould removal team can discuss cleanup when needed. Following a leak or flood, our water damage restoration team can also assess drying needs.
Replacing finishes without correcting the source can lead to repeat damage. Therefore, we explain the findings before recommending leak repairs, drying, mould cleanup, or further investigation.
A visual inspection cannot check every concealed space. If the findings point to a hidden problem, we discuss closer access rather than opening walls without a clear reason.
Our service focuses on leaks, moisture, mould, and restoration concerns. It does not replace a complete real-estate home inspection before a purchase.
Instead, book a property inspection when recurring stains, damp materials, musty odours, or unexplained water damage need a closer look.

A property inspection helps identify leaks, damp materials, and restoration concerns. Most importantly, the findings should connect visible damage with possible moisture sources so you can plan the next steps.
For example, ceiling stains, swollen baseboards, and warped flooring can point to current or previous water damage. Therefore, investigate these signs before replacing the finishes.
In addition, water can travel behind walls, above ceilings, and beneath flooring. As a result, the visible damage may appear some distance from the original leak.
Moisture meters help check damp materials. Meanwhile, thermal imaging can reveal temperature patterns that need closer investigation rather than confirm moisture by itself.
Basement dampness may come from plumbing, foundation seepage, drainage, or condensation. For this reason, an inspection considers the conditions around the affected area.
Similarly, roof leaks can affect ceilings, insulation, and walls. Instead of treating recurring stains as cosmetic damage, investigate when they appear and whether rain makes them worse.
Visible mould and musty odours can indicate damp conditions. However, cleanup should address the moisture source as well as the affected surfaces.
Commercial properties may have problems around plumbing, roofs, and shared systems. Therefore, early checks can help managers identify affected areas and plan repairs.
Homeowners often notice stains, damp materials, odours, or damaged flooring first. For this reason, a focused inspection can help explain these signs and identify the likely cause.
Moisture checks help narrow down suspect areas before technicians open walls or flooring. However, some hidden conditions still need closer access for confirmation.
Once the source becomes clearer, the next step may involve leak repairs, drying, mould removal, or building repairs. Then, the team can explain the proposed work.
