Why Is Mould Growing In My House?

Mould can enter your home as tiny spores every time you open a window or door. The spores need moisture to begin growing, digesting and destroying. Mould can grow on almost any surface, including; wood, ceiling tiles, wallpaper, paints, carpet, sheet rock, and insulation. The mould grows best when there is lots of moisture.

What Products Do Mould Masters Use

Mould Masters use the internationally recognized mould removal Goldmorr System, which will generally use only two products during the mould removal process.

GM6000

The first product is GM6000. This product is used to clean the visible mould. It is used on hard surfaces only, such as walls, ceilings, tiles and concrete. Importantly, unlike some other products, GM6000 will not remove the paint from your walls or ceiling.

GM200

Part two of our process is the most important. We will fog the entire structure with a product that will eliminate the spores. GM2000 is biodegradable, non toxic, low/non irritant and non corrosive. Best of all, it will eliminate the spores throughout your structure, thus preventing other colonies of mould being able to form in other rooms/areas.

Do I Have To Leave My Home For Treatment?

The Goldmorr system does not require you to vacate your home for an extended amount of time. In most cases we are in and out within the same day and you can return 3-4 hours after treatment.
