Mould Remediation
Excessive moisture and high humidity within a structure can lead to the growth of mould, which poses a serious threat to both property and health. Whether caused by an ongoing pipe leak, flooding event, or water damage, mould needs immediate attention. Microbial contamination can have adverse effects on individuals, particularly at-risk groups such as the very young, immunocompromised individuals, those with underlying health issues, and the elderly. At United Trade Links, we understand the importance of addressing mould issues promptly and thoroughly to safeguard your property and the well-being of its occupants.
Inspection
Our first step in mould remediation is a comprehensive on-site inspection conducted by our skilled assessment managers. While visible mould is crucial to identify, it is equally important to determine if mould growth is occurring within concealed areas, such as wall cavities or behind cabinets. Identifying the moisture source is paramount, as the most effective removal and remediation methods can only succeed when the root cause is addressed. Our highly trained assessment managers will thoroughly investigate the source of moisture and inspect all suspect areas to devise an effective remediation plan tailored to your specific needs.
The Remediation Plan
Our mould remediation plans are carefully designed to ensure a thorough and effective process. Our services include:
- Identification of Excessive Moisture and Humidity: Our experts will pinpoint the areas of concern, where mould is likely to flourish due to elevated moisture levels.
- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Our technicians and everyone present on-site will wear appropriate PPE to ensure their safety during the remediation process.
- Airborne Mould Spore Removal: We employ specialized equipment to effectively remove airborne mould spores and prevent their further spread.
- Containment Setup: To prevent cross-contamination to clean areas, we create containment barriers around affected regions.
Safe Removal of Mould-Affected
- Materials: Our team will safely remove and dispose of mould-affected building materials and contents, taking extra care during the process.

- Final Cleaning, Decontamination, Drying, and Clearance Testing: We ensure thorough cleaning, decontamination, and drying of the area to eliminate any remaining traces of mould. A final clearance testing will be conducted to ensure the remediated area is safe for habitation.
- Mould Sampling: As part of our comprehensive mould removal services, we collect and test mould samples to: Establish the true extent of mould contamination within the property. Identify mould species to determine its toxicity and potential health risks to occupants. Perform post-remedial clearance testing for stringent quality control.
- Final Clearance Testing: Air and surface samples are taken in the remediated area for testing. Our indoor air quality specialists carry out all necessary microbial testing. The mould samples are sent to an independent laboratory for further analysis to verify a safe mould ecology post remediation. Your safety and satisfaction are our top priorities.
