How to get rid of mould

Got Mould? Here's What You Need to Know
A Guide from Your Friends at NG Construction

Let's face it - finding mould in your home is never fun. Whether you've spotted it creeping up your bathroom wall or caught that musty smell in your basement, mould is more than just an eyesore - it's a problem that needs fixing, fast. We've been helping homeowners tackle mould for years, and we want to share what we've learned.

What's Really Going On When You See Mould?

Think of mould like an unwanted houseguest that shows up whenever things get damp. It's a fungus that spreads through tiny spores floating through the air, and once it finds a wet spot, it makes itself right at home. Not only can it trigger allergies and breathing problems, but it can also start eating away at your walls and ceilings if left unchecked.

Why Does Mould Keep Coming Back?

Usually, it comes down to a few common culprits:
- That dripping pipe you've been meaning to fix
- Steamy showers without proper ventilation
- Flooding or water damage you might have missed
- Humid basements with poor air circulation
- Condensation building up on cold surfaces

The Real Impact of Mould

Beyond the obvious "ick" factor, mould can:
- Make you and your family sick with allergies and breathing issues
- Quietly damage your home's structure
- Tank your property value (nobody wants to buy a mouldy house)
