Mold Inspection Software for Canada
In short
DampApp Pro helps Canadian inspectors document mold and moisture on-site: calculate dew point and psychrometric values on the device, capture timestamped photos (EXIF-derived where available), and export full watermarked PDF reports — all natively offline on the generous free tier. Pro optionally adds cloud sync and white-label PDF branding.
Official source and scope
Canada’s national model codes do not become enforceable until adopted or adapted by the relevant province or territory, and tenancy rules are also jurisdiction-specific. Confirm the current provincial, territorial and municipal requirements for the building and tenure you are inspecting; this app records observations and is not legal or code-compliance advice.
National Research Council Canada: model code adoptionCanada's cold-climate building science makes interstitial condensation and winter moisture a recurring challenge. Tight, heated envelopes, heavy snow loads and large temperature swings between indoors and outdoors can drive mold growth in walls, attics and basements. DampApp Pro gives Canadian inspectors a consistent way to capture and explain that moisture.
Document moisture clearly
1. On-device dew-point and psychrometrics
Enter dry-bulb temperature and relative humidity (in °C or °F) to calculate dew point on the device, helping you explain why warm, humid indoor air is condensing against cold winter surfaces.
2. Timestamped photo evidence (EXIF-derived where available)
Each photo carries its EXIF-derived capture time (or attachment time when EXIF is unavailable), giving you a dated visual record of conditions at the time of inspection.
3. Offline PDF reports
Generate comprehensive PDF reports on the device without any cellular reception — useful in basements, unheated buildings and remote properties.
Provincial tenancy standards
Residential tenancies in Canada are governed at the provincial and territorial level, and provinces set standards for maintaining rental housing in a good state of repair and fit for habitation. The specifics vary between provinces. A clear, dated inspection record helps owners and property managers document a property's condition against the applicable provincial standard.
Canada's provincial standards are part of a wider international shift toward enforceable rental housing-condition standards, alongside the UK's Renters' Rights Act 2025 and New Zealand's Healthy Homes Standards.
Canadian mold inspection — FAQs
Is there a single national mould standard for Canadian rentals?▾
No. Residential tenancies are regulated province by province, so the maintenance, repair and habitability standards differ across Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, Quebec and the other provinces and territories. Construction is guided by the National Building Code of Canada (NBC) and provincial codes. A clear, dated inspection record helps document a property against the standard that applies where it sits — confirm the current requirements for your province.
Can DampApp Pro record temperatures in degrees Celsius?▾
Yes. You can enter dry-bulb temperature and relative humidity in °C or °F, and the app calculates dew point on the device — useful for explaining interstitial condensation in tightly sealed, heated Canadian envelopes during winter.
Does it work offline in basements and remote properties?▾
Yes. The generous free tier supports full offline surveys and watermarked PDF export with no cellular signal. Pro optionally adds cloud sync when you reconnect and white-label PDF branding — useful in basements, unheated buildings and remote properties.
Can I produce reports for property managers and insurers?▾
Yes. DampApp Pro produces dated PDF reports with EXIF-derived photo times (with attachment-time fallback). Free reports carry the DampApp Pro watermark; optional Pro adds white-label branding for property managers, owners and insurer discussions.
For Canadian inspectors and managers
Use DampApp Pro for mold and moisture diagnostics, or PropertySurvey Pro for whole-property condition reports.
