Get rid of mould

There is no point getting rid of mould unless you remove the cause. See how to stop condensation.

To remove mould:

  • wipe down walls and window frames with a fungicidal wash - make sure it carries a Health and Safety Executive approval number. Follow the instructions carefully.
  • dry-clean mildewed clothes and shampoo carpets.
  • after treatment, redecorate using a good quality fungicidal paint. Don't paint over with ordinary paints or wall papers.
