Inspection summary

Studio 44 has been inspected 3 times by York Region Public Health since July 8, 2025. The most recent inspection, on May 8, 2026, recorded 4 infractions.

1 of 3 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 4 infractions recorded. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct infection-control risks to clients.

What these findings mean

Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for clients. In personal service settings like salons, spas and tattoo studios, higher-risk findings are the ones that could spread infection from one client to the next, through broken skin, blood or instruments that were not properly cleaned and sterilized.

  • Equipment and utensilsLower risk

    Instruments, chairs, tables and footbaths must be made of materials that can be cleaned, kept in good repair and stored so they stay clean. Single-use items such as nail files, buffers, razors and needles must be thrown away after each client.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 8, 2026. For example: Reusable equipment is cleaned and disinfected/sterilized appropriately

  • Permits, records and postingLower risk

    Operating permits, client records, sterilization logs and required signage. Client records matter because they let health officials contact people if an infection is linked to the business.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 8, 2026. For example: Health Canada licensed disinfectant is provided

  • Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk

    The premises needs a working hand sink, a separate sink for cleaning instruments where required, cleanable surfaces, and good lighting and ventilation. Upkeep problems are usually lower risk on their own, but they make thorough cleaning harder.

    Recorded once on July 8, 2025. For example: General housekeeping conditions are satisfactory

  • Other findingsLower risk

    Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.

    Recorded 2 times on May 8, 2026. For example: Best Practice: Ensure the appropriate contact time for the disinfectant is achieved, for the item(s) being disinfected
