Mould and Damp Bathroom Repair in Sneyd Green
Leaks, re-seals, tile and grout repairs, shower swaps and quick fixes.
Bathroom mould in a Sneyd Green home is almost never a cleaning problem — it's a moisture-in vs moisture-out imbalance. If we come in and just paint over it, it's back in six months. If we fix the extract, the cold bridges and the silicone at the same time, it doesn't come back.
We measure the extract flow at survey (l/s at the grille, not on the box), identify cold bridges with a thermal read on external walls, and re-silicone with anti-fungal grade sealant only after the moisture cause is treated.
Most of our bathroom repairs jobs in Sneyd Green begin with a slow walk round the house, not a quote on the doorstep.

Mould and Damp Bathroom Repair FAQs — Sneyd Green
- Why does mould keep coming back in my Sneyd Green bathroom?
- Almost always because the extract fan is undersized, badly ducted, or missing entirely on a Sneyd Green bathroom. Painting over it doesn't fix the moisture cycle.
- Do you test extract flow?
- Yes — we test with an anemometer at the grille on every Sneyd Green damp job. Building Regs minimum is 15 l/s; older fans on kinked flexible ducting often measure 4-6 l/s.
- Can you treat mould without stripping tiles?
- Usually yes — the source fix (extract, silicone, insulation) doesn't need tile removal on most Sneyd Green jobs. Only water-damaged substrate needs opening up.
- What sealant do you use?
- Anti-fungal, high-modulus neutral cure silicone with a 10-year mould warranty. Standard on every Sneyd Green damp fix.
- How quickly can you get to a leak in Sneyd Green?
- We aim to be on-site for water-leak callouts in Sneyd Green within 24 – 48 hours; same-day where we can.
- Do you tidy up at the end of each day?
- Yes — dust sheets stay down, the room is hoovered daily and we leave your Sneyd Green home liveable while the work runs.
