How is mould removed?

- Fix leaks and damp patches
- Use a dehumidifier in problem areas
- Clean with anti-mould products
- Ask a mould specialist for prevention tips
Does insurance cover mould removal?
Sometimes. If the mould is caused by sudden damage like a burst pipe, it might be covered. Check with your insurer.
Can mould come back after removal?
Yes, it can, especially if the root cause (like excess moisture or poor ventilation) isn’t fixed. That’s why it’s important to treat both the mould and the conditions that caused it.
A mould control removal company will usually advise on long-term prevention too.
What’s the difference between mould and mildew?
Mildew is a surface-level fungus, often white or grey, and easier to clean.
Mould tends to be darker (black, green, or brown), can grow deeper into surfaces, and often has stronger health risks. If in doubt, get a mould inspection to identify the type.
