Independent Mould Inspection Specialists Across Scotland

As qualified independent surveyors, we provide comprehensive mould inspection and condensation survey services throughout Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Angus, Dundee, Perth and Kinross, Stirling, Glasgow, and the Scottish Highlands. Our specialist team conducts thorough mould and condensation assessments to identify moisture problems affecting indoor air quality and property condition.

What Is a Mould and Condensation Inspection?

A mould and condensation inspection is a detailed assessment of moisture-related problems within buildings, focusing on mould growth and condensation issues that can affect health and property value. Our independent mould inspection service identifies the root causes of moisture problems and provides solutions to prevent future occurrences.

Why Mould and Condensation Inspection Is Essential

Health Implications

Mould exposure can cause serious health problems including:

• Respiratory issues and asthma aggravation

• Allergic reactions and skin irritation

• Eye and throat irritation

• Compromised immune system response

• Particular risks for children, elderly, and vulnerable individuals

Property Damage Concerns

Unchecked mould and condensation can cause:

Condensation Survey Specialisations

Modern Property Condensation

Contemporary buildings often suffer condensation due to:

• Improved insulation creating vapour barriers

• Reduced natural ventilation in energy-efficient homes

• Lifestyle changes increasing internal moisture production

• Inadequate mechanical ventilation systems

Period Property Mould Problems

Older buildings face unique challenges:

• Traditional construction allowing moisture movement

• Inappropriate modern interventions blocking natural breathability

• Historic ventilation systems inadequate for modern living

• Thermal inefficiency creating condensation-prone surfaces

Scottish Climate Considerations

Our inspections account for:

• High humidity levels throughout much of Scotland

• Frequent rainfall increasing external moisture loads

• Temperature variations between seasons

• Coastal salt air affecting building moisture dynamics
