Comprehensive Mould & Moisture Assessment

$899.00

Is your home making you sick? In Australia, "mouldy house syndrome" is a growing concern, often linked to Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS) and persistent respiratory issues. A standard "visual check" is rarely enough, as the most dangerous mould is often the kind you cannot see.

Our Comprehensive Mould Assessment goes beyond the surface to identify the root cause of moisture ingress and the biological load present in your living environment.

Who is this assessment for?

  • Health-Conscious Households: Families experiencing chronic fatigue, "brain fog," sinus issues, or asthma that improves when they leave the house.

  • Renters & Landlords: Providing objective, third-party data to resolve disputes regarding habitability and necessary repairs.

  • Post-Flood or Leak Recovery: Ensuring that "dried out" really means safe, and that no secondary growth has begun behind walls.

  • Home Buyers: Pre-purchase due diligence to avoid the "money pit" of a structurally damp or mould-infested property.

The Problem with "Dead" Mould

Many traditional cleaners claim to "kill" mould with bleach. However, from a Building Biology perspective, dead mould is just as allergenic and toxic as live mould. We focus on the total removal of mould fragments and mycotoxins, ensuring the air you breathe is truly clean, not just chemically treated.

Our Scientific Approach

We use a combination of high-precision tools and laboratory analysis to provide a full picture of your home’s health:

  1. Moisture Mapping: Using professional moisture meters and thermal imaging to find hidden leaks or "cold bridges" where condensation forms.

  2. Hygroscopic Evaluation: Measuring relative humidity and dew points to determine if your home's ventilation is sufficient for the Australian climate.

  3. Advanced Air Sampling (Prism Sampler): We utilise the Prism Air Sampler to detect MVOCs (Microbial Volatile Organic Compounds). These are the "gasses" emitted by actively growing mould. This technology is essential for finding "hidden mould" tucked away in wall cavities or under floorboards.

  4. Surface Testing: Where visible growth is present, we use tape lifts or swabs to identify specific species and their potential toxicity.

What You Will Receive

Your assessment concludes with a detailed, easy-to-understand Mould Remediation Strategy based on the SBM-2015 Building Biology Evaluation Guidelines:

  • Detailed Findings: A room-by-room breakdown of moisture levels and mould concentrations.

  • Source Identification: We don't just find the mould; we tell you why it’s there (e.g., rising damp, leaking pipes, or poor airflow).

  • Remediation Roadmap: Clear, step-by-step instructions on how to safely remove the mould and, more importantly, how to prevent it from returning.

  • Post-Remediation Verification: Guidance on how to ensure a professional cleaner has actually done the job correctly.

Please Note: To ensure lab-grade accuracy, this service requires the purchase of Mould Air Samples separately. This allows us to scale the testing to the specific size of your property and the severity of the issue.

Important Booking Information: We currently provide onsite services exclusively to the Central West, NSW. Before proceeding to checkout, please verify that your property is within our service zone. Please note that if a booking is made for a location outside of this region, the service fee will be forfeited and is non-refundable.
