Mould Removal Service

What is mould?

Mould is a form of fungus which breaks down dead material. Our homes offer the ideal conditions for it to grow (especially in Ireland)– that is, dampness, moisture, warm air, and then feeding materials such as wood, carpet, and dust.

Mould and mildew are both caused by condensation and high levels of moisture in the air. Condensation, one of the most significant contributors of mould, often forms in the bathroom; one of the steamiest rooms in the home. If condensation isn’t the culprit, then rising damp, a more severe issue could be to blame.

Once we help you understand why mould grows, then controlling it is generally very simple once the initial infestation has been removed correctly. We locate the source and fix it.

Living in damp conditions can be very stressful and added to that, the effects of it on your property. Having developed our mould removal method using specialist anti-fungicide to kill the bacteria and discourage future growth of mould or mildew, we also advise on further prevention of reoccurrence.

It is not advised to use household cleaning products to attempt to kill the bacteria as a mould remover or to brush the mould off a surface. Brushing it or disturbing the mould will agitate the spores and make them airborne and therefore likely to spread and form further mould. Its best to call a mould removal expert. Household products like bleach may clean the area, but unfortunately they won’t kill mould growth. Bleach has a high pH level which makes it ineffective for killing mould. It simply colours it, so it looks like it has disappeared and the problem will return sooner rather than later.
