Mould Illness

There are many ways for buildings to become water damaged, and therefore becoming hosts for biotoxins. While there are many obvious causes of water damage, there are many that are not so visually obvious including poor ventilation, condensation, high humidity levels and inappropriate building material choices. It does not take long for microbial growth to occur and the risk of mould contamination to escalate after a building is exposed to unresolved moisture.

When remediating homes and buildings where occupants are suffering from diagnosed mould illness, there is a much greater focus on small particle cleaning. Common industry practices are generally based on methods shown to be effective for whole spore remediation but not for particles that are much smaller and float in the air for long periods of time. It is important to note that all surfaces collect and hold dust containing toxins, antigens, inflammagens, and other micro contaminants.

An effective remediation plan starts with a thorough investigation which must detect all water intrusions, leaks and condensation problems. The remediation work must correct all moisture and water issues and include remediation of all water damaged building materials and will include maintenance procedures to sustain high quality indoor air over the long term. Maintenance procedures will involve frequent and intensive monitoring of water damage risks and additional pro active measures such as optimising air filtration and ventilation of the building.

Great guys to do business with. Honest, reliable, and well educated on getting rid of mould. I highly recommend them.

Fantastic service from Rob, Adam, Rose and the team at PureProtect. Got a complicated and evolving job done right, including coordinating all the trades, materials etc required. Highly recommend.

After learning that my illness was caused from a mould infestation, and after lots of misinformation by builders and cleaners, I can now say that I was blessed to find Rob from Pure Protect. They were able to locate the problem areas and thoroughly decontaminate all mould and mould spores, they also provided comprehensive information on how keep my home Mould free.

I dealt with Rob and his team earlier this year during a water damage insurance claim. The service and expertise Rob provided was second to none. I highly reccomend Pure Protect, and I cannot thank Rob enough. He went above and beyond all our expectations.
