Our Newcastle Mould Inspection Services

We offer a full range of mould and moisture investigation services across Newcastle, tailored to your property and concerns:

Visual Mould Assessments

We inspect walls, ceilings, subfloors, bathrooms, and living areas to identify visible mould growth, water damage, and signs of excessive humidity or dampness.

Moisture & Leak Detection

Using professional moisture meters and thermal imaging, we detect moisture behind walls, under floors, and in ceilings — the root cause of many mould problems.

Air & Surface Mould Testing

We collect air and surface samples to identify black mould and other hazardous species. This is essential for assessing health risks and planning safe remediation.

Independent Mould Reports

You’ll receive a clear, independent report outlining where mould is present, the cause of the moisture, and practical recommendations to resolve the issue.

Why Mould Testing Matters

If you're experiencing:

• Persistent musty smells

• Discoloured walls or ceilings

• Peeling paint or bubbling plaster

• Health symptoms like coughing or sinus issues

• Previous water leaks or flooding

…you may have an active mould problem in your Newcastle property.

Left untreated, mould and moisture can cause structural damage, reduce air quality, and pose serious health risks — especially when black mould (Stachybotrys) is involved.

Health Risks of Black Mould

Black mould produces mycotoxins that can affect indoor air quality and trigger:

• Chronic coughing or sneezing

• Skin irritation or rashes

• Eye redness or irritation

• Fatigue, brain fog, or headaches

• Worsening asthma and respiratory issues

Protect your family or occupants — book a professional mould and moisture inspection in Newcastle to get the facts and take control.

What Causes Mould in Newcastle Homes?

Mould grows in damp, poorly ventilated spaces. On the Newcastle coast, contributing factors include:

• Roof or plumbing leaks

• Rising damp or poor subfloor ventilation

• Bathrooms and laundries without exhaust fans

• Old buildings with condensation problems

Treating mould without fixing the underlying moisture problem will only lead to regrowth.

We help you get to the root cause with expert testing, moisture mapping, and honest advice — no scare tactics.
