Mould growth in buildings poses serious health risks and indicates underlying moisture problems that require expert investigation. Trace Surveys provides comprehensive mould assessments combining scientific analysis with building pathology expertise to identify causes and recommend effective solutions.
Professional Mould Investigation Services
Our methodical approach goes beyond surface treatments to address root causes:
- Inspection visuelle – Systematic assessment by experienced building diagnosticians
- Air Quality Testing – Spore counts and species identification
- Cartographie de l'humidité – Thermal imaging and moisture meter surveys
- Surface Sampling – Laboratory analysis for accurate mould identification
- Analyse du risque de condensation – Hygrothermal modelling and data logging
- Ventilation Assessment – Airflow testing and system evaluation
Understanding Mould Growth
Mould requires three conditions: moisture, nutrients, and suitable temperature. Our investigations identify why these conditions exist in your property:
- Water ingress from leaks or defects
- Condensation from inadequate ventilation
- Rising damp or penetrating moisture
- Thermal bridging causing cold surfaces
- Lifestyle factors affecting humidity
- Building defects promoting moisture retention
