I have damp and mould in the house and need to stop it
“Hello, is that Damp Checks? I have damp and mould in my home and need to stop it properly and permanently.”
This is, unfortunately, a frequent phrase and problem I hear. In order for mould to exist and become a problem for you, it needs to be damp regularly. Many people are most concerned about the health implications of mould in their home. There are so many varieties of mould that the only way to properly identify what it is, is to take a swab sample. Can we provide swab sampling? Yes, but I would advise it is not necessary unless a health professional has requested it. The reason there is mould in your home is because it’s a symptom of a fault needing identifying and fixing. Often the patches of mould are seen as the problem, but they are actually a signpost something is wrong.

Please don’t waste your time and money with sticking plaster fixes. Yes, you may disguise the problem, but you will not even begin to remove it. The reason mould can grow is because there is too much moisture trapped in your home. A Damp Checks mould and damp survey on your property gives you the answers you need.
