Mold removal: find craftsmen, get offers and find out costs

In the case of fresh, small-area infestations, mold can be combated with a mould remover or Javel water. But don't forget that some of these home remedies can damage the silicone joints in the shower, for example, and wear a protective mask. If you have a large or recurring infestation, you should definitely hire a specialist to remove the mold.

Mold can not only damage the building structure, but also pose long-term health risks such as allergies, asthma and other illnesses.

High humidity and cool surfaces promote the formation of mold. The risk of mold formation is therefore particularly increased in old buildings and poorly insulated buildings during the cold seasons. To prevent mold in the apartment, the heating should not be switched off during the cold months and air out the rooms regularly.

The cost of mold removal depends on the size of the infestation and the type of material affected. They can range from a few hundred to several thousand francs. It is advisable to obtain an offer from a specialist mold removal company in advance - at Buildigo you can easily obtain a personalized offer from reputable specialist companies.

According to tenancy law, the landlord should cover the costs of removing mold, as mold infestation represents a defect in the rental property. It is important to report mold problems to the landlord in writing as quickly as possible and, above all, to clarify the question of costs before hiring anyone to remove the mold.
