Mould removal in Maitland and the Hunter
We identify the mould, treat it at the source and remove it properly. Then we tell you how to keep it from returning.
Mould is not a surface problem.
Wiping mould with bleach hides it for a fortnight and it comes back darker. The growth you can see is only part of the problem. It is fed by moisture coming from somewhere, whether that is a leaking shower, poor ventilation, a damp subfloor or a wall that never dries out.
We find where the moisture is coming from, treat the affected materials with the right products, and remove spores from the air and surfaces so the room is safe to use again. Mould shows up in bathrooms, laundries, wardrobes, ceilings and subfloors right across Maitland, Newcastle and the Hunter, in older homes and new builds alike.

Common questions.
Can I just clean the mould off with bleach?
Bleach can lighten the stain, but it does not deal with the moisture feeding the growth, so it usually returns darker within weeks. We treat the affected materials and look for the source of the damp.
How do you stop mould spreading while you work?
We contain the work area before treatment so spores are not spread through the house, then use HEPA vacuuming and air scrubbing to clear the air and surfaces.
Will the mould come back?
If the moisture source is not dealt with, it can. That is why we take moisture readings and leave written notes on ventilation and moisture control after every job.
Do you work with property managers and landlords?
Yes. We often help property managers and real estate agents handling tenant complaints, and we can work around tenants and access arrangements.
