Accredited Mould Remediators
Although we are accredited mould remediators, we do not offer mould removal services.
To avoid a conflict of interest, we focus on identifying both visible and hidden mould in your home and providing recommendations on how the mould should be removed.
Mould Removal vs Remediation
We are often asked what the difference is between mould remediation and removal. Mould removal is physically removing all mould while mould remediation focuses on returning mould to natural levels. The two terms can be interchangeable but since airborne mould spores are microscopic and abound in both the outdoor and indoor environments, it’s extremely hard to remove all mould in the atmosphere.
Mould growth within the indoor environment has long been linked with poor health and property damage, and is therefore the most significant biological pollutant to be found within the indoor environment. Because Mould can exist and grow under such a variety of conditions and feed off different building substrates, mould growth and other contaminants may pose a risk to human health and well-being.
Dead mould and fragments can be more hazardous than live mould, which is why we recommend you don’t try killing or bleaching it, we recommend removing it!
If you are concerned about mould in your property, the aim should always be to safely remove the source of mould and reduce the risk of exposure as much as possible to avoid ill-health.
