Was Your Coastal Home Built with Moisture in Mind?
The North Shore gets over 1,600mm of rainfall per year. Older homes in Lynn Valley, Deep Cove, and Edgemont Village — many built in the 1950s through 1980s — weren't designed with today's moisture management standards. Crawl spaces, poorly ventilated attics, and aging building envelopes are a perfect recipe for mold growth, and it often spreads well beyond what you can see.
Does this sound familiar?
-
You've noticed dark patches in the bathroom, basement, or crawl space and you're not sure how far it goes
-
There's a musty smell that won't go away, even after cleaning
-
You cleaned it yourself and it came back within weeks
-
Someone in your household has persistent allergy or respiratory symptoms with no clear cause
-
You're a contractor working on a North Shore renovation and hit mold inside a wall — your project is on hold until it's properly cleared
Certified Mold Remediation, Done to Standard
ASB Environmental is a WorkSafeBC-certified environmental remediation company based in North Vancouver. We've been doing this work on the North Shore and across the Lower Mainland long enough to know how mold behaves in local homes — the crawl spaces under heritage houses in Lonsdale, the damp basement suites in Lynn Valley, the condensation issues in older Seymour properties.
We're not a general contractor with a mold add-on. Remediation is our core work, and we do it with the equipment, protocols, and documentation that actually solve the problem.
What that means for you: a thorough assessment that identifies the full extent of the mold — including inside walls and below flooring — proper containment so it doesn't spread during removal, complete extraction of all contaminated materials, and written documentation of the completed work. Whether you need it for insurance, a real estate transaction, or WorkSafeBC compliance, we provide a result you can stand behind.
Mold doesn't resolve on its own — it grows. Catching it early means less damage, lower cost, and less disruption to your home or job site.
Our Process
STEP 1
Assessment
We inspect the affected area, identify how far the mold has spread (including inside walls and below flooring), and locate the moisture source driving it
STEP 2
Containtment
We establish negative-pressure containment to prevent spores from spreading to unaffected areas of your home or worksite during removal.
STEP 3
Remediation
Contaminated materials are physically removed and safely disposed of. Affected surfaces are treated to prevent regrowth.
STEP 4
Clearance
We provide written documentation of the completed work — useful for insurance claims, property transactions, or WorkSafeBC compliance on active job sites.

Homeowners
You've found mold — or you suspect it — and you want it dealt with properly. Maybe it showed up after a basement flood, a leaking skylight, or years of inadequate ventilation. Maybe a routine renovation revealed something behind the drywall. Whatever the entry point, you want it gone safely, completely, and with documentation that proves the work was done right

Found Mold in Your North Van Home?

Mold grows. The longer it's left, the more material it damages, the more it costs to remove, and the longer your household breathes compromised air. If you've found mold — or you suspect it's somewhere you can't see — get a professional assessment before the problem gets bigger.
