Loft and attic mould removal across Yorkshire

Mould in a loft usually means warm, moist air from the house is condensing on cold felt and timbers; roof leaks are another cause. We clean and treat affected surfaces, then look at ventilation, insulation and leaks so it is less likely to come back.

The longer you leave it, the worse it gets

Black mould spreads through walls, ceilings and clothing, and the spores can make breathing problems worse.

We find the cause first, then quote in writing before any work starts.

Why lofts get mouldy

Common causes are blocked soffit vents, insulation pushed into the eaves, bathroom fans venting into the loft and missing loft-hatch seals. A roof leak can look similar, so we inspect before recommending anything.

Treating rafters, joists and felt

Most loft mould can be cleaned and treated in place. We only suggest replacing timber or felt where it is genuinely rotten or torn, and we show you photos before any extra work.

Loft mould and house sales

Surveyors often flag loft mould. Buyers want to know what caused it and what's been done about it, so we explain the cause and the ventilation or insulation changes alongside the clean.

What’s included

  • Felt, rafters, joists and insulation inspected
  • Affected timbers professionally treated, not just wiped
  • Soffit vents, fans and roof leaks checked
  • Findings explained for buyers or surveyors

Common questions

Is loft mould dangerous?

The loft is separate from living space, but heavy growth means moisture is getting up there — the same moisture often causes mould in bedrooms below.

Do I need new felt or timbers?

Usually not. We only recommend replacement where material is rotten or torn.
