Whether the mould source is caused by a lack of adequate ventilation, flood water damage or a leaking roof, mould growth is a serious problem. As well as looking and smelling unpleasant, prolonged exposure to mould can have a huge impact on your health and may cause damage to the building’s structure. Correct mould remediation is essential to minimising these risks and the risk of mould growrth returning.
Building materials affected by moisture ingress often contribute to elevated relative humidity throughout the building envelope, even if the affected materials are isolated to a particular area or room of the building. Aspergillus/Penicillium is a genus of moulds that are commonly found in damp moist environments, and with some species being xerophilic, can successfully colonise high humidity environments, taking advantage of water molecules in the air and the nutrients from organic matter found in common dust.
Because of its ability to take advantage of sparse resources, and the fact that it produces massive amounts of very small spores, once established within an indoor environment, Aspergillus/Penicillium can be quite problematic to successfully remediate/remove without adopting meticulous cleaning techniques in line with mould remediation guidelines.

Ready to get started? Let’s talk!
Mould remediation involves more than simply cleaning off the visible mould growth and applying a disinfectant. We adhere to the ANSI/IICRC s520 Standard for Professional Mould Remediation, which states that “Antimicrobials should not be used as an alternative to cleaning procedures and physical removal of mould contamination.”
To ensure the best results, we aim to physically remove mould from the property, ensuring that the source of contamination has been eliminated. By using air filtration devices, we’re able to capture airborne spores and particulate matter that would otherwise settle on other surfaces in the building.
With appropriate containment and negative air in place, step 1 is typically removal of condition 3 mould via aggressive cleaning and/or removal works. From here, all fittings, fixtures and building materials are typically H.E.PA. vacuumed, wet wiped and H.E.PA. vacuumed again. After mould removal is complete, structural drying may also be completed to remove excess moisture from within the building. Finally it is best practice that a 3rd party hygienist attends to take air and surface samples. This provides confirmation that the remediation is complete with the premises returned to a normal fungal ecology, safe for reoccupation.
