How We Deal With Mould

The specifics of our mould remediation process are as follows:

Mould Assessment

The first part of dealing with mould is locating it – this includes where you notice the problem, but we also aim to look deeper to see if there are spores or colonies lurking elsewhere. We create moisture maps of a property that help us to locate susceptible areas, ensuring we don’t miss anything. Our professional team uses specialist tools to assess the general presence of mould on your property, which also lets us make sure we remove every last spore as a hidden infestation in the walls can easily lead to it coming back.

Mould Containment

After we determine where the mould is on your property, the Big Red Restorations team sets about containing it, so the spores don’t spread throughout the building during remediation. If you clean mould by yourself, there is always a possibility of it becoming airborne and resettling elsewhere – which means we need to take specific precautions to prevent this and keep your property mould-free. We use plastic mould barriers and sheeting to seal off the contaminated area, and stop the spread of mould once we start the overall removal process, which also necessitates closing the windows.

Mould Management

Mould management refers specifically to preventative treatments that can stop the recurrence of mould – and also includes tips for how to reduce this risk long-term. We can give you a personal plan that understands your property and its unique requirements, as there’s only so much you might be able to control. One of our central mould management services is structural drying, which helps dehumidify the property and promotes circulation throughout the building. Reducing the ambient moisture in your property helps to eliminate the chance of this mould returning in future, assuming you take the right precautions.

Mould Removal

The actual removal of mould is a complex process, the specifics of which usually depend on the infestation and its severity. We can remove most patches of mould by applying intense chemical products – with strong results on porous and non-porous surfaces, including glass, timber, plasterboard, and more. Home products may have some effectiveness for moderate amounts of mould, but a full infestation always requires a professional touch, one that can guarantee a comprehensive removal. We also remove residual airborne spores by filtering the air, followed by fogging with an antimicrobial pesticide.

The Importance Of Remediating Mould

If you think there’s mould on your property, it’s paramount that you contact a professional mould remediation company. As it continues to grow throughout the room and the property at large, you and anybody else within could soon start experiencing health issues. This includes a persistent cough, sneezing, lung irritation, and even issues with memory and concentration.

Some mould types may even slowly damage a building’s structure over time – and the stains are quite difficult to remove, lowering the property’s value. The Big Red Restorations team can help to manage mould outbreaks on your property, so make sure you contact us today if you need our mould remediation services.
