In-place drying of water damaged ceilings, walls and floors requires a combination of specialty drying equipment, speed and experience from restoration companies. That's why our IICRC certified water damage restoration technicians are ready and equipped with moisture meters, thermal imaging cameras, thermal hygrometers and specialty drying equipment for emergency water damage situations.

This drying system is designed specifically for in-place drying applications. The set-up is very quick, efficient and non-invasive. If immediate action is taken, this drying system can help to avoid costly removal and replacement of water damaged building materials. In-place drying can significantly reduce labor costs, disruption and time on site - saving time and money for the insurer and the property owner.

At SELECT Restoration Services we have the experience and drying equipment to target high risk areas of hidden moisture such as walls and ceilings, double-sheeted fire walls, party walls, sound barriers, insulation, walls behind cabinets and fixtures, and water damaged wood subflooring. These pieces of drying equipment are especially useful on commercial water damage restoration projects when water damaged materials urgently need to be cleaned, dried and restored in-place, minimizing business interruption and downtime.

We will always be there for your insured when they have a water damage emergency. If you need FAST water damage cleanup and drying services in the Greater Toronto Area, make us your FIRST CALL in an emergency.

When a pipe bursts in a condo building, it doesn’t take long for the water to fill up hallways, stairwells and individual units. The incident may end quickly, but the effects can be felt for weeks after the water has been cleaned up.

While some water accidents are hard to prevent, owners and condo managers take some of the following steps to minimize the risk of a flood:

1) Develop and maintain comprehensive emergency preparedness plans that outline procedures for responding to flooding and water damage.

2) Implement a schedule for regular inspections of the condo’s plumbing systems, including pipes, valves, and fittings, to identify and address any leaks or potential issues before they escalate.

3) Offer information to owners about how to properly care for appliances. Install stainless steel braided lines instead of rubber hoses on washing machines and large appliances.

4) Consider water sensors or a water shut-off device if you are concerned about recurring leaks.

5) Check to see if your personal insurance coverage is adequate to protect against water damage-related risks.

6) Review and update the building’s insurance policies regularly to ensure they provide sufficient coverage for potential losses.

In the last 24 months, the Greater Toronto Area has seen some of the most intense "flash flood" events in its history. From the record-breaking water damage losses following the 2024 summer storms, to the erratic freeze-thaw cycles of early 2026, basement flooding has shifted from a "rare accident" to a "statistical probability" for homeowners in Toronto, Etobicoke and Mississauga.

As a local restoration company in Toronto, we aren't just here to pump out water; we’re here to help you understand the data behind the damage - and how to use the new 2026 Toronto Basement Flooding Protection Subsidy Program.

When fire strikes, the soot left behind is your second emergency. Many homeowners’ first instinct is to grab a bucket of soapy water, but that is the fastest way to turn a cleanable mess into a permanent stain.

At SELECT Restoration Services in Toronto, we use professional-grade KEM Sponges (dry-cleaning sponges) to save your surfaces.

These vulcanized rubber sponges act like a giant eraser, lifting dry soot particles out of pores rather than rubbing them in. Using water on greasy smoke residue creates an oily slurry that "ghosts" into the drywall. We keep it dry to keep it clean. It’s the essential first step before any deep cleaning or repainting can happen.

Soot is more than just a mess - it’s acidic, greasy, and destructive. Don't risk a DIY mistake that sets the damage in stone. Trust the experts with the right tools to restore your home properly.

Facing smoke damage in the Greater Toronto Area? We’re here to help.
