Mould coming back in the same corner every winter is a moisture problem wearing a decorating disguise. In Hampshire we start with the cause, then the coating.
Landlords, housing teams and homeowners with mould returning in the same corners every winter.
Fungicidal and moisture-tolerant coatings slow the return of surface mould; they do not remove the cause. The honest sequence is: find the moisture source, improve ventilation, sterilise the surface, then apply a system designed for high-humidity rooms. Skipping the first two steps means repainting again next winter.
It slows the return of surface growth. If the underlying cause is condensation, ventilation or a cold bridge, the coating buys time rather than a cure — we will tell you which you are dealing with.
Always. The surface is treated and left to dwell before any coating goes on. Painting straight over live growth is why the patch reappears within a few months.
Yes — older solid-wall stock and rooms with limited extraction are the usual candidates. It is one of the most frequent calls we take across Hampshire in winter.
We can, but dwell and drying times are not negotiable. We will give you the shortest honest programme rather than the shortest one you want to hear.
No — we are decorators. Where an extract fan or vent is undersized we will say so in writing so you can get it addressed before we coat.
Modern moisture-tolerant systems look like ordinary matt or eggshell. There is no reason a treated Hampshire bedroom should look like a clinical space.
Send photographs of the affected walls in your Hampshire property and we will tell you what is treatable by decorating alone.
Coatings manage the symptom; ventilation and moisture control fix the cause. On Hampshire jobs we work on both fronts.
