Mould growth and the need for remediation

Most people don’t consider mould growth a serious problem. But they are wrong.  Mould growth is a serious issue and any indication of mould growth at your home or office should be considered a serious issue.

Mould growth can take place due to various reasons. One of the most common reasons is by humidity and water damage. If that’s the case, then mould remediation is necessary as it can cause serious health concerns. Not only is mould bad for your health, it can severely damage and devalue your property, creating unwanted strain to your property as well.

Exposure to mould can have serious health issues like nasal stuffiness, throat irritation, coughing, wheezing, eye irritation and in severe cases skin irritation. Often young children and elderly people and the most prone to being affected by mould.

Mould growth takes place in places with a lot of moisture. Areas around leaks in roof, pipes, areas under the sink and in bathrooms are common breeding grounds for mould spores.

Basement afloat

When we see a house, we see picket fences, well-painted walls, perfect wooden furniture and the ambiance of rooms. But does anyone check the basement! Why not?

Basically, the basement is a spare storage area in a house. Over the years, junk gets piled up and this can create an ideal space for micro-organisms to breed. Beneath all stored items, there could be a water leakage you would not even know about. Water leakages can not only lead to mould generation but can also damage other household properties. These effects link to several health issues like asthma, allergies, rashes, etc.

In cases like this, people tend to worry about the house flooding or damage caused to life and property. It's best advised to be prepared at all times and we at Bio Cleanse Pty Ltd along with our team of trained professionals help you get rid of the damage in a safe and systematic manner.
