Professional House Mould Removal & Remediation in Brisbane
What is Mould?
Mould (Australian/British Spelling), or Mold (American) is a microscopic living organism belonging to the fungi family that can grow everywhere, even in places that are neat and clean. However, it loves moist and wet areas where ventilation is poor and is very likely to grow and thrive in properties that are coasts with high natural moisture levels. Exposure to mould spores in large quantities can pose health risks such as allergies.
The Causes of Mould Growth
Mould is everywhere around us in the air in tiny particles as mould spores,but not harmful most of the time in small quantities. Issues arise when the spores lodge in environments ideal for mould growth and can spread rapidly to other parts of your property, damaging your building structure and making a mould removal process more difficult and expensive.
Mould love warm and dark environments with poor ventilation. Mould needs water and nutrients to grow, which is the reason why all of us have already come across mould on bread. Mould and dampness are caused by the presence of excess moisture in a property. The problem sometimes comes from a leaking pipe, rain seeping in through holes on the roof or around window frames. Additionally, homes subject to poor ventilation can create prolonged condensation and mould issues. After deposing on surfaces, tiny particles called mould spores which are used for reproduction are released in the air and move around the house, looking for dark damp and wet areas such as bathrooms, or basements. If you have ever noticed a damp, musty smell when you go into basements, this could be one of the reasons. To make matters more difficult, mould loves to lodge in places that are often not visible such as inside the walls.
Mould is creates more issues near the coast where the air humidity is high which in turns affects the humidity indoors. Additionally, if your property has a history of flooding, mould can grow and appear within 24 hours.

Professional House Mould Inspections
In properties where mould is visible and minor, sometimes an inspection is not required. However an inspection will allow you to determine where the moisture or aeration issue comes from so you will be able to prevent mould growth again in your home. Only cleaning visible mould does ensure it will grow again on the same surface. Moreover, a strong odour suggests the presence of invisible mould that can grow in concealed areas and further investigation is necessary. Mould can also grow on your personal belongings and furnishings, often these can be restored to their original condition. We recommend booking an inspection to assess the level of contamination and cleaning required. Read more about mould inspections.
Mould Prevention
When Mould is treated, removed, and cleaned successfully, it is equally important to take precautionary measures to prevent mould growth in your property. Keeping your home well-ventilated and dry will help keep your home mould-free. It might be worth looking to install house ventilation systems to remove moisture and dampness in the air.
