Your IICRC-Certified Mould Remediation Authority in Gladstone
We are a locally owned and operated mould remediation company serving the Gladstone region. Our technicians hold Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) in Applied Microbial Remediation (AMRT), the industry’s most respected credential for addressing mould contamination. Unlike basic cleaning services, we are trained to identify and remediate the underlying moisture source according to the IICRC S520 Standard for Professional Mould Remediation. Our work focuses on permanent solutions, not temporary fixes.
The Gladstone Climate Challenge: More Than Just Surface Mould
Gladstone’s subtropical climate presents unique challenges. The period from October to March brings a combination of high heat and humidity, creating ideal breeding grounds for mould. We frequently see species like Aspergillus and Cladosporium thrive in these conditions, often appearing as green, black, or grey patches on walls and ceilings.
In coastal suburbs like Tannum Sands and Boyne Island, the salt-laden air can accelerate the corrosion of building materials, creating pathways for moisture ingress. In the housing estates of Kin Kora, New Auckland, and Clinton, many homes built during the 1970s and 80s growth spurts lack the modern ventilation mandated by the National Construction Code (NCC) 2022, making them susceptible to trapped humidity. This often results in persistent mould in bathrooms, built-in wardrobes, and rooms with underpowered air conditioning units.
Our Services
Mould Inspection
A professional mould inspection is conducted to identify visible contamination, moisture intrusion, and hidden environmental conditions contributing to fungal growth. Thermal imaging cameras and moisture detection equipment are used to locate concealed dampness within walls, ceilings, and structural cavities in accordance with the IICRC S520 standard.
Book InspectionMould Testing
Where mould contamination is suspected beyond visible areas, professional air and surface sampling can be undertaken to assess indoor microbial activity and contamination levels. Samples are independently laboratory analysed to identify mould species and airborne spore concentrations, supporting accurate remediation planning and verification.
View ServiceMould Removal
Affected areas are isolated using controlled containment systems to minimise airborne cross-contamination throughout the property. HEPA-filtered air scrubbers, negative pressure systems, and specialised remediation procedures are then used to safely remove mould contamination in line with the IICRC S520 standard.

Water Damage
Restoration
The restoration process begins with moisture mapping to assess the extent of water intrusion affecting structural and non-structural materials. Commercial extraction equipment, industrial drying systems, and dehumidification methods are strategically implemented to remove residual moisture, stabilise the environment, and minimise the risk of secondary damage.

A simple spray-and-wipe approach does not solve a mould problem. Our process is a methodical, multi-step protocol designed for safety and long-term effectiveness.
Beyond Cleaning: Identifying the Four Main Causes of Gladstone Mould
Our goal is to solve your problem permanently. This means identifying which of the four main moisture sources is the root cause.
Weather & Water Ingress
Damage from heavy rainfall, failed waterproofing in older homes, or storm damage impacting roofs and windows.
Plumbing Failures
Slow leaks from pipes within walls, behind cabinets, or from failing hot water systems.
Poor Ventilation
Insufficient mechanical exhaust in bathrooms and laundries, a common issue in older housing stock, and blocked or poorly designed roof ventilation.
HVAC Issues
Condensation buildup in air conditioning ducting and coils, which can distribute mould spores throughout the entire property.
What Our Clients Say
"Living near the water in Tannum Sands means we deal with constant humidity and salt air. Mould kept returning in our air-conditioned rooms despite cleaning it ourselves. The team explained how coastal moisture and ventilation were contributing to the problem and provided a clear remediation plan. Very professional and tailored to local conditions."
Daniel M.
"We had ongoing mould issues in our Kin Kora home, particularly in the bathrooms during humid months. The inspection and moisture testing gave us clear answers about what was causing it. The removal and remediation were completed efficiently with minimal disruption. We’re very pleased with the result."

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need a mould inspection?
If you see visible growth, detect a persistent musty smell, or have experienced a water leak, an inspection is recommended. Unexplained respiratory symptoms can also be a sign of hidden mould.
Is a professional inspection required before remediation?
Yes. A proper inspection following the IICRC S520 standard is essential to identify the full scope of the problem and its moisture source. Without it, remediation is just guesswork.
Can mould return after removal?
Mould will return if the underlying moisture issue is not resolved. Our process focuses on identifying and providing recommendations to fix the source, which is the only way to prevent regrowth.
Do you work with homes and businesses?
Yes. We provide IICRC-compliant remediation services for residential homes, rental properties, and commercial buildings across the Gladstone region.

"After a period of heavy rain in Clinton, we noticed mould starting to appear in our ceilings and wardrobes. The inspection was thorough and they identified hidden moisture from a minor roof issue we hadn’t picked up. The removal process was controlled and professional, and the communication throughout was excellent."
