Mould Removal

Fungi and mould have existed on earth since life first began and results in the natural decomposition (recycling) of organic materials.  In current housing & business premises (the built environment) fungi and mould can damage organic materials used in construction.

The growth of fungi and mould on materials in your property can affect human health depending on the extent of the growth, the length of exposure and the health status of the exposed occupants.

Mould growth depends on several inter-related factors, including:

  • The amount of moisture present or generated
  • Insufficient ventilation in terms of air changes per hour
  • The thermal properties of the building
  • The degree to which the house is heated
