Managing moisture and dampness is essential for preventing mould outbreaks. Dampness, which encompasses any unwanted and excessive indoor moisture, whether visible, measurable, or perceived, is a prime condition for mould growth and poses health risks even without visible mould signs. INTEV specialises in identifying and remediating mould issues and preventing further contamination when necessary.
Mould, a major indoor biological pollutant, can cause adverse health effects, unpleasant odors, and damage to building materials, furnishings, and structures, potentially leading to high maintenance or management costs. Mould consists of microscopic fungi that grow in multicellular filaments called hyphae and can thrive on various building materials and within HVAC systems. INTEV can identify all factors necessary for mould growth—nutrients, oxygen, moisture, and suitable temperature. Controlling indoor moisture is generally the primary strategy to curb mould development.
Sources of excess moisture may include flawed building design and construction, poor maintenance, or inadequate ventilation. Occupant behavior and activities that generate moisture also affect indoor humidity levels. Events like floods and storms, if not properly managed, can cause water damage and foster mould growth. Beyond promoting mould, excess moisture can encourage the growth of other biological pollutants like bacteria and allergens, such as house dust mites, and increase chemical emissions from building materials, all of which can negatively impact health.

The cost of a mould inspection in Sydney ranges from $300 to $3000, depending on factors such as the number of tests and samples required, as well as the size of the sample area.
An assessment for mould may include visual inspection, typically guided by prior inspectors' findings or recommendations. This involves visually examining areas prone to mould growth, such as damp or humid spaces, to identify visible signs of mould infestation and determine the extent of the problem.
Inspecting for mould involves visually examining areas for signs of infestation. Look for dark stains from leaks or a light-colored sheen on surfaces, like opaque paint, which may indicate mould growth. These visual cues help identify potential areas where mould is present and guide further inspection and remediation efforts.
