Indoor air quality in Ottawa and Gatineau

ecoPlus Services provides indoor air quality, mold, humidity, odour, radon and contaminant assessments for property owners and building managers in Ottawa and Gatineau.

The expertise carried out by ecoPlus Services is based on scientific protocols, measurements, sampling and laboratory analysis carried out under the guidance of qualified and accredited professionals.

We offer a full service of expertise and diagnosis using inspections, advanced scientific instruments, sampling and laboratory analysis.

ecoPlus Services is entirely and exclusively at your service!

Our expertise allows us to assess the following indoor environment issues:

  • Mold
    1. Air cleanliness investigation and verification
    2. Protocol, verification and post-decontamination attestation
  • Volatile organic compounds (VOC)
  • Particulate matter
  • Iron ocher
  • Odour
  • CO2
  • Lead
  • Excessive humidity
  • Radon

An investigation matched to the issue observed

A persistent odour, water event, excessive humidity or visible contamination does not always call for the same protocol. ecoPlus Services first clarifies the building context and observed conditions so the inspection, measurements and sampling are appropriate to the situation.

An assignment may include a visual inspection, moisture and ventilation measurements, air, surface or material sampling, accredited laboratory analysis, identification of likely moisture sources, a remediation protocol and post-work verification.

Service area and experience

Our regular service area covers Gatineau, Ottawa, the Outaouais and Eastern Ontario. For commercial, institutional, industrial, multi-residential or mining projects whose scope supports the travel required for our technologists, we also provide mould investigations and indoor air quality assessments elsewhere in Quebec and Ontario. Feasibility, scheduling and any travel or accommodation costs are confirmed before the service proposal is prepared. Complex residential or multi-building projects outside our regular service area may also be considered. See our environmental service areas across Quebec and Ontario.

Since 2002, ecoPlus Services has assessed more than 30,000 buildings. Each of our technologists has more than 10 years of experience in their field, and our team works with accredited laboratories.
