Mould Odour Removal in Hull

That earthy, musty smell is mould, even when you cannot see it. We find it, treat it and dry the damp behind it, so the smell does not come straight back.

You usually smell mould before you see it

The musty smell of mould often shows up before the mould itself is visible, growing behind skirting boards, inside cavities or under floors. Treating the smell means treating the mould and the damp feeding it, not spraying over it.

How we clear a mould smell

Hidden mould is the usual culprit

When a room smells of mould but looks clean, the growth is usually out of sight in a cavity, under a floor or behind a unit. We find it rather than guessing.
