Mould Removal

Is your home affected by mould?

At Barrier Damp Proofing we specialise in not only preventing condensation and mould from affecting your home, but we also place a large emphasis on treating mould affected buildings. Mould can be a horrible burden to any home.

Causes of Mould?

• Lateral Damp
• Rising Damp
• Condensation
• Poor Ventilation and Subfloor Ventilation

Effects of Moulds

Besides filling your home with a horrible musty smell, mould has many negative effects to a home/building which include:

• Adverse health issues related to respiratory problems and hay fever type symptoms
• Attraction of unwanted insects including termites
• Damage to timber / decorative surfaces
• Stained walls / carpets

How Barrier Damp Proofing Will Treat Mould?

At Barrier Damp Proofing, we would arrive to your property and perform a free Mould Inspection, which would be included in the quotation. From there, we should be able to identify what is causing the mould and how we propose to treat it. Our method for treating mould would include:

• Installation of fans and dehumidifiers to help dry out the moisture in the structure
• Washing down of the mould affected walls with a specialised mould treatment
• Repaint the walls with a mould additive paint to help prevent further mould growth

After the mould-affected areas have been treated you may then wish to look into a more longer-term preventative method such as installing a subfloor ventilation system or by implementing a barrier dampproof course.

At Barrier Damp Proofing, we specialise not only in the treating of mould-affected areas, but also in preventing mould from happening/reoccurring.
