Internal Mould Removal

Mould is very dangerous and can be fatal. It causes allergies and asthma mostly to people with low immune systems. Ignorance is one of the major reasons for this. Most people are unaware of the dangers of mould. Apart from the health issues mould is also very unsightly.

At Mould Pro our business is mould removal and prevention. Our expert technicians will come to your house find the mould, kill it and prevent it from returning. We can also give you a written report on why the mould has occurred and give you some ways to stop the source of mould growth. We treat mould at the surface it is on by spraying and wipeing and we can also install a HEPA air purifier in the building which will capture all airbourne mould spores and bacteria. This is why our mould removal techniques are so successful.

Humidity meters and moisture meters are used when required to determine the exact cause of mould. We can also do labratory testing to find out mould levels and types and we can provide certificates to prove that mould has been removed.

Our mould cleaning chemicals are chlorine and bleach free, single part chemicals with hospital grade disinfecting qualities. This product can be used on any surface and is made from environmentally friendly, biodegradable with naturally occurring ingredients

These chemicals have a residual effect and will continue to protect the surface for up to 12 months after one application. This product will kill (not just bleach) mould spores, preventing fungus from returning.

Many customers have been pleasantly surprised with the results of our internal mould removal. We have been servicing nursing homes, golf courses, child care centre's, hospitals, domestic laundries, bathrooms, bedrooms, basements and kitchens . In the past most of these customers had mould removed but it would be back within 2 weeks.

Please give us a call and we will send a friendly technician around to help with your mould issues

Mould information

Moulds reproduce by means of tiny spores, the spores are invisible to the naked eye and float through outdoor and indoor air. Mould may begin growing indoors when mould spores land on surfaces that are wet. There are many types of mould, and none of them will grow without water or moisture.

How Mould can affect your health

Moulds have the potential to cause health problems. Moulds produce allergens, irritants, and in some cases, potentially toxic substances. Inhaling or touching mould or mould spores may cause allergic reactions in sensitive people. Allergic reactions to mould are common. They can be immediate or delayed. Moulds can also cause asthma attacks in people with asthma who are allergic to mould. In addition, mould exposure can irritate the eyes, skin, nose, throat, and lungs of both mould-allergic and non-allergic people. Symptoms other than the allergic and irritant types are not commonly reported as a result of inhaling mould.

Moisture and Mold Prevention and Control Tips

When water leaks or spills occur indoors - ACT QUICKLY. If wet or damp materials or areas are dried 24-48 hours after a leak or spill happens, in most cases mould will not grow.
Clean and repair roof gutters regularly.
Make sure the ground slopes away from the building foundation, so that water does not enter or collect around the foundation.
Keep air conditioning drip pans clean and the drain lines unobstructed and flowing properly.
Keep indoor humidity low. If possible, keep indoor humidity below 60 percent (ideally between 30 and 50 percent) relative humidity.
If you see condensation or moisture collecting on windows, walls or pipes ACT QUICKLY to dry the wet surface and reduce the moisture/water source. Condensation can be a sign of high humidity.

Actions that will help to reduce humidity

Vent appliances that produce moisture, such as clothes dryers, stoves where possible.
Use air conditioners and/or de-humidifiers when needed.
Run the bathroom fan or open the window when showering. Use exhaust fans or open windows whenever cooking, running the dishwasher or dishwashing, etc.

Actions that will help prevent condensation

Reduce the humidity.
Increase ventilation or air movement by opening doors and/or windows, when practical. Use fans as needed.
Cover cold surfaces, such as cold water pipes, with insulation.
Increase air temperature.
