CASE STUDY: Effective Bathroom Mould Remediation
On 30 March 2026, our technician attended the property to complete the approved mould remediation works within the bathroom area.
The scope included strip-out, disposal, and treatment of mould-affected materials.
All works were carried out in accordance with industry standards and safety protocols.
During the process, affected plaster wall linings and contaminated plasterboard within the wall cavity were removed and safely disposed of.
Exposed framing timbers were cleaned, HEPA vacuumed, and treated using Percide with booster, followed by Biosan application to neutralise surfaces.
A final HEPA vacuum was conducted to remove residual particulate matter before containment removal, and works were paused for safe continuation pending further trade intervention.
During remediation, residual moisture and additional mould contamination were identified within timber framing and tiled sections, extending beyond the original scope.
Further investigation, including camera inspection, confirmed mould presence in concealed areas and water damage behind the vanity.
As a result, additional works are required, including engaging a licensed plumber to isolate the water supply, removing the vanity unit, and conducting further remediation on affected timber framing, tiled walls, and potentially the opposite side of the wall.

What is the difference between cleaning and remediation
Cleaning removes what you see.
Remediation tackles the source, the spores, and the moisture.

Will bleach restore it

It can also be harsh on some surfaces.
Control moisture and use the right methods for your surface.
How long does mould remediation take
Small rooms can be sorted in a few hours.
Larger areas may need a day or two, with drying time.
Every site is different, so we confirm after inspection.

For small spots, you can often stay in another room.
For bigger work, we may suggest a brief step out while equipment runs.
We plan it with you so life keeps ticking along.
Will it come back

We show you easy steps so you keep the upper hand.
Do you test the air
