Mould Services

Mould is particularly common in London properties for several reasons, including high humidity and rainfall, older housing stock and condensation issues due to single-glazed windows and inefficient heating systems. 

DIY solutions for mould removal may seem like a quick fix, but harmful spores can be missed, leading to repeated occurrences and ongoing expense.

We provide a professional mould removal service that targets the root cause of the issue to help prevent mould from returning, as well as advice on improving the ventilation of your space.
