Expert mould removal services in Guildford

Mould is classified as a Category 1 health risk by the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS), and so is considered an equivalent health risks to asbestos.

The spores given off by mould can lead to respiratory issues, allergic reactions, and even more severe health complications if left unchecked.

MiraKal provides mould removal services in Guildford and the surrounding area. Our services focus on identifying, removing, and preventing mould using advanced methods to ensure lasting protection for your property and health.

Given that the Guildford area, like the majority of the UK, experiences a mix of wet and dry periods, and as so many modern homes lack the air circulation that helps prevent mould from forming, mould prevention and removal are essential for maintaining a healthy living environment.

Understanding the risks of mould

We aim to offer the most efficient and effective mould removal service in the Guildford area, implementing comprehensive solutions to safeguard your home and health. Our expert team employs the latest techniques and technology to address mould issues, ensuring a safe, healthy, and comfortable environment for you and your family.

In an area like that around Guildford, older housing stock sits side by side with more modern homes with sealed unit windows. This means mould is a constant menace in the area, thriving in damp conditions and causing damage not only to structures but also to the well-being of residents.

Our team provides efficient and wholly effective mould cleaning, ensuring your living or commercial spaces are returned to pristine condition.

Our process begins with a thorough assessment of your property to identify mould sources. This initial inspection is crucial for ensuring effective removal that addresses not only visible mould but also hidden spores with the potential to cause further outbreaks.

We then use specialised techniques for mould removal, our team working with meticulous attention to detail, to safeguard your premises with lasting results.

From the bustling streets in Guildford town centre, far out into surrounding areas, we are able to provide services ensuring every nook and cranny is free from mould.

Beyond removal

We are always happy to help homeowners understand how to help prevent the return of mould growth following a clean.

Ventilation, monitoring humidity levels, identifying potential problem areas, and carrying out regular checks and maintenance are amongst the practical tips and long-term strategies we are able to talk through in order to help you keep your home mould-free. Our goal is to assist you in being able to maintain a healthy indoor environment, reducing the need for further professional mould removal.

Mould removal services for landlords and Letting and Management agents

The Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018 supplements the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 in requiring that rental properties must be free of hazards, including damp and mould, which are so serious that the dwelling is not reasonably suitable for occupation.

Additionally, ‘Awaab’s Law’, which entered parliament through Clause 42 within the Social Housing (Regulation) Act in July of 2023, and is expected to be enacted into law before the end of 2024, heightens the obligations on Social Housing landlords to address mould issues almost immediately.

This legislation will require Social Housing landlords to investigate hazards and provide a written report of the investigation within 14 calendar days, and to then commence repair works in 7 calendar days if the hazard could post a significant risk to health or safety of the tenants. The repair work will then need to be completed within a ‘reasonable time period’ as defined by the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985. In the case of emergency repairs, landlords will be required to commence repair work within 24 hours.

Against this backdrop, MiraKal works with letting and management agents in and around Guildford, providing swift, responsive mould cleans, both at end of tenancy and in response to specific outbreaks during a tenancy.
