Mould can damage health, reduce property values, cause legal actions against you, cost you a lot in compensation. Yet all you have to do to avoid the problems is call in the SitexOrbis Mould Eradication Service.
The spores released by mould can both cause and aggravate asthma, and mould is officially classified as a Category One risk to health. The Environmental Protection Act (1990) states that mould is a statutory nuisance that must be treated. Not dealing with a statutory nuisance can result in prosecution. You must not, and cannot afford to ignore it.
Mould is caused by fungi in the presence of moisture and develops a complex root system in the structure of the building. As with an iceberg, what you see on the surface is only one tenth of the problem. Unless you eradicate the roots, the mould will return. Painting over mould will never work permanently.
The four-stage SitexOrbis solution is thorough, professional and permanent. Stage one is when experienced surveyors diagnose the type of mould (there are many) and the reasons for its presence. Sophisticated instruments measure humidity.
Stage Two begins with fully trained technicians washing the surface with a bactericidal detergent to eradicate surface mould and prevent more spores escaping into the air. All SitexOrbis technical staff are trained in a training programme that is endorsed by City and Guilds, and all staff working on customers’ premises are CRB checked.
Stage Three is root removal. Expert technicians treat the mould area and one metre in all directions around it with powerful and complex agents to eradicate the root.
Stage Four is prevention. A powerfully fungicidal paint is applied so that any spores still in the air in the room cannot land and germinate. No more spores germinating means no recurrence of mould.
Calling SitexOrbis kills the problem, eliminates the risks of legal action with consequent damages or compensation, improves the property value and maximises its acceptability for a new lease.
So call 08000 830 850 now. Tackle the problem, keep on the right side of the law and avoid the courts. And breathe easily, even if you are asthmatic.
