Our Mould Remediation Service
Initial Assessment & Report A detailed on-site inspection by the Steamatic team is the first step in identifying and addressing mould issues. Our experts will locate both visible and hidden mould and pinpoint the moisture source to prevent a recurrence.
Mould Remediation We conduct thorough mould remediation including setting up containments to prevent cross contamination.
Final Decontamination Clearance Testing
We perform surface testing to verify that the area is safe post-remediation. Our process includes ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) surface testing to confirm that all surfaces are thoroughly cleaned and free of organic material, eliminating conditions that support mould growth. For additional assurance, air quality testing can be conducted upon request, and in severe cases, we can engage certified hygienists to perform detailed assessments. Upon completion, a certificate is provided to confirm the property has been professionally treated and deemed safe for reoccupation.
