Frequently Asked Question
How do I know if my property has a mould problem?
Look for visible dark patches, musty smells, or discolouration on walls and ceilings, particularly in bathrooms and damp areas. An onsite inspection can confirm the presence and extent of mould.
Mould is often visible as black, green, or white spots or patches on surfaces like walls, ceilings, bathrooms, and around windows. You might notice a musty smell in certain rooms, even if you can't see visible mould. This earthy odour is often the first sign that mould is present, sometimes before it becomes visible.
Common locations for mould include bathrooms, kitchens, basements, and areas prone to dampness or condensation. You may also notice discolouration on walls or ceilings, peeling paint, or soft spots on timber. In Port Melbourne properties, where moisture levels can be higher due to climate, mould problems can develop more readily in poorly ventilated spaces.
If you suspect mould, don't ignore it. Contact us for an onsite inspection to assess the extent of the problem and identify what's causing it.
