Mould can develop in any environment - whether it’ s your home, vehicle, or workplace - posing serious risks to your health. These risks can include respiratory problems, allergies, infections, and long-term illnesses. Mould’s impact can be both damaging and expensive, affecting the wellbeing of you and your loved ones. 

Possible Causes of Mould

 

Mould often arises as a result of high humidity, damp conditions, and fluctuating temperatures. It can also be triggered by water intrusion form plumbing leaks, roof leaks, storm damage, etc. These factors create the perfect environment for mould to thrive, leading to significant impacts on both the structure and the health of its occupants.

Recognising the Presence of Mould

 

​Recognising the presence of mould is critical to maintaining a healthy space. It can be detected through a musty odour, visible discoloration on walls, ceilings, and other surfaces, as well as water stains and damp spots. Mould can appear as black, green, or white spots or patterns, but it may also be invisible. Addressing the signs of mould is essential in the prevention and spread of this potentially destructive organism.
