What is a Mould Survey?

The presence of mould and related odours are often the manifestations of a number of underlying problems in a building. These will often include a constant persistence of damp and condensation in and around the affected area, often a lack of adequate clean air circulation and a tepid to cold environment.

All of these factors help contribute to the growth and proliferation of mould. Due to the well documented and often serious health implications mould can represent to you and your family, immediate survey and removal is strongly recommended. A mould survey investigates the source and extent of the underlying causes of a mould infestation within your property, as well as advising on an appropriate removal strategy.
