Flood, Fire or Mould: Emergency Crews That Answer 24/7
Flood extraction, fire and smoke remediation, and mould removal, with crews that respond 24/7 across Toronto and the GTA. Fully insured, photo-documented, and coordinated under the same contract and account manager as the rest of your building.
A pipe lets go on the coldest night of February. A kitchen fire pushes smoke through three floors. A slow leak behind a wall turns into mould. GTA buildings take these hits, and the freeze-thaw cycles and wind-driven rain that punish exteriors here make water events more likely, not less. The damage compounds by the hour, and it rarely starts during business hours. Worst of all, most property managers end up vetting an unfamiliar restoration vendor mid-crisis, chasing a COI and a WSIB clearance while water keeps moving.
Master Building Services runs 24/7 emergency crews for exactly these events: flood extraction, fire and smoke remediation, and mould removal. Crews are WSIB covered and insured with $5M liability, and every job starts with a documented hazard assessment, even under pressure. The work is photo-documented, and it all runs under the same master service agreement as your other building services. Your COI and WSIB clearance are already on file, the cost lands on the same monthly invoice, and one account manager coordinates the response while you look after your residents.

What Happens When You Call
Emergency response starts with stopping the spread. For water events, that means extraction crews pulling standing water out before it migrates through floors, walls and mechanical spaces. For fire and smoke, remediation crews deal with residue and odour in the affected areas. For mould, removal crews take out the contaminated material rather than covering it up. Every job opens with a documented hazard assessment, because an emergency is exactly when corners tend to get cut, and exactly when they can't be.
You see everything we do. The work is photo-documented and closed out with a photo-verified completion report, which gives you a clean record for your board, your residents and your insurer. Your account manager is the single point of contact from the first call to the final report: one person keeping you updated, one line on your monthly invoice, and no stack of unfamiliar vendor paperwork to reconcile after the fact.
Before the Pipe Bursts: Why Timing Matters
The GTA calendar is predictable about this. Deep-freeze snaps in January and February are when pipes burst. Freeze-thaw cycles through late winter open the cracks that let wind-driven rain into the envelope when storms roll through. By the time water shows up inside, you are past prevention and into response, and the quality of that response depends on decisions made months earlier. A property manager with an emergency partner already under contract skips the worst part of a disaster: the scramble.
This is also where the free Building Health Report earns its keep. The walk-through covers your exterior envelope and interior common areas, photo-documented, and the prioritized fix list sorts findings into urgent, this year and monitor, so a failing sealant joint or a suspect stain gets dealt with before it becomes an emergency. And because emergency and disaster recovery sits inside the same flat-rate, multi-year master agreement as the rest of your services, with no annual escalators, the crew that shows up on your worst day works for the partner who already knows your building.
Why property managers choose Master.
No 3 a.m. Vendor Vetting
Emergency response runs under your master service agreement: one COI, one WSIB clearance, one monthly invoice, one account manager. The paperwork exists before the water does.
Insured for the Worst Day
Crews are WSIB covered and carry $5M liability insurance, and every job begins with a documented hazard assessment. Pressure doesn't change the safety standard.
A Record You Can Hand to Anyone
Photo-documented work and a photo-verified completion report after every visit give your board and your insurer proof of exactly what was done.
Emergency & Disaster Recovery — questions property managers ask
Is emergency response included in the master service agreement?
Yes. Emergency and disaster recovery is coordinated under the same contract as every other service, so your COI, WSIB clearance and billing are already in place when something goes wrong. Your account manager coordinates the crews and keeps you updated throughout.
What insurance documentation can you provide for our insurer and our records?
Crews are WSIB covered and carry $5M liability insurance, and under the master agreement you hold one COI and one WSIB clearance instead of a folder of vendor certificates. Photo-documented work and the photo-verified completion report give your insurer a clear record of the response.
How do you manage disruption to residents during remediation?
Every job starts with a documented hazard assessment so the work area is identified and controlled before crews begin. Your account manager is your single point of contact for updates you can pass straight to residents and the board, and the photo-verified completion report closes the loop when the space is handed back.
What counts as an emergency, and what goes through normal scheduling?
Floods, burst pipes, fire and smoke damage, and mould get 24/7 emergency response, every day of the year. Everything else moves through standard channels, where a real person responds within 2 business hours, Monday to Friday, 7am to 6pm.
Who handles the repairs once the emergency work is done?
The same partner. MBS covers interior and exterior building services across the GTA, so follow-on repairs are coordinated under the same agreement, by the same account manager, on the same monthly invoice. You're not hiring a second contractor to finish what the first one stabilized.
