He expected to repaint the ceiling.

A year of black mould crept across his bathroom ceiling. He never scrubbed it once - he'd read that DIY wouldn't hold. One day of dry fog later, he didn't need the decorator either.

The mould he never touched

Most people call us after months of scrubbing. Craig never picked up a sponge — he'd read that DIY wouldn't hold and left it alone for a year.

It began as a black spot in the corner of the bathroom. A year on, it had climbed the wall — from the window, across the ceiling, onto the blind.

Every shower turned the room into a steam room. The walls ran. The mirror fogged. The radiator dripped. And still, he never once reached for the bleach

He knew enough to know why. A new extractor went in first — and up in the loft, the electrician found the old duct kinked and backed up with standing water. The fan helped. The mould stayed.

"I wasn't confident enough to do it myself."

A couple of days after the call, Jack treated the whole house in a day. Craig went to work and came home to a bathroom he didn't recognise — the ceiling looked freshly decorated.

01
Unmanaged humidity zone

Condensation identified as the primary cause of mould on the bathroom ceiling and along the front bedroom ceiling edge.

02
Failed ventilation path

Kinked extractor ducting trapping moisture, with the rear bedroom under-ventilated since replaced with a smart humidity-activated unit.

03
Condensation bridge

Inadequate loft insulation creating cold ceiling spots — the surface condition that let condensation settle and mould establish.

After one day of treatment, the airborne mould-spore count in the sampled bedroom fell below the lab's limit of detection, and below the outdoor reference sample taken the same day — no spore types were found.

"Already recommended this 10/10 company to family and friends."

The process behind the transformation.

Four stages. One day on site. Independent lab evidence at both ends — before you spend, and after we leave.

Step 01
Diagnose

Comprehensive survey and independent laboratory testing to identify the root cause — not just the visible symptoms.

Step 02
Treat

Patented two-step dry-fog process, applied throughout the property to reach every surface the air touches and reduce mould contamination, then an antimicrobial film to inhibit regrowth.

Step 03
Verify

Post-treatment lab testing gives written, independent evidence of the spore-count reduction. No claims without numbers.

Step 04
Check-in

A follow-up in the weeks after treatment confirms the result has held — clear air, no regrowth, and the evidence to prove it.

What a homeowner actually wants to know.

It's a lot of money — is it worth it over cleaning it myself?

Shop-bought sprays treat what you can see and leave the cause running. Craig never scrubbed once — one day of treatment beat a year of them.

Do I need to take a day off work?

No. Every person and pet leaves while the fog is active, and you're back the same evening. Craig let the technician in and headed to work.

How long does the air stay like that?

The fog oxidises and denatures the mould. An antimicrobial layer then electrostatically attracts spores that land later. After that, it's humidity control.

I'm selling in a year or two — does this help?

You get written, independent lab evidence that spore counts are back to outdoor-equivalent levels — a document you can show a buyer, not a promise.

If you think you have a problem with mould, start with a survey.
