Mould in a vehicle is more than just an eyesore. It’s a health risk that can cause allergies, breathing problems and a persistent damp smell that lingers no matter how much you try to air it out. It thrives in damp conditions, spreading through upholstery, carpets and air vents, and once it takes hold, it can be difficult to remove properly.
Our mould remediation service is a thorough process designed to get rid of the problem at the source. We start by assessing the extent of the mould growth and identifying any moisture issues that may be causing it. The interior is then deep cleaned using specialist anti-microbial treatments, ensuring that all traces of mould are removed from fabrics, plastics and hard surfaces. Seats, carpets and headliners are shampooed and extracted to eliminate spores trapped in the fibres, while air vents and hidden areas are treated to prevent it from coming back.
Once the mould has been physically removed, we use an ozone treatment to neutralise any remaining spores in the air and eliminate the musty smell that often lingers in affected vehicles. This ensures that the problem is fully dealt with, rather than just hidden.
This service is ideal for vehicles that have been left unused for long periods, suffered leaks or been exposed to high humidity. Whether the mould is light surface growth or a full infestation, we have the knowledge and equipment to restore your vehicle to a clean and safe condition.
We begin by inspecting the vehicle to assess the severity of the mould growth and identify any underlying moisture issues. To prevent the spread of spores during the cleaning process, we use containment measures such as air filtration and controlled cleaning methods.
Before applying any cleaning agents, we carefully remove loose mould spores using HEPA-filtered vacuuming and dry brushing. This helps prevent unnecessary moisture exposure, which could cause the mould to spread further.
A specialist anti-microbial cleaner is applied to all affected areas, including seats, carpets, door panels, and headliners. Using soft detailing brushes, we work the cleaner deep into the fibres to break down and remove the mould at its root. Hard surfaces such as dashboards, steering wheels, and centre consoles are also sanitised to eliminate any lingering spores.
To prevent regrowth, we ensure the vehicle is thoroughly dried after cleaning. We use professional-grade drying equipment to extract any remaining moisture from upholstery and carpets, significantly reducing the risk of future mould development.
Even after physical cleaning, airborne mould spores can remain in the vehicle’s air conditioning system and interior spaces. To ensure complete decontamination, we use an ozone generator to neutralise any remaining spores, bacteria, and odour-causing microbes at a molecular level.
Once the mould has been completely removed, we carry out a final inspection to ensure no traces remain. We also provide advice on how to prevent future mould growth, including recommendations for moisture control, ventilation, and protective treatments.
Our mould remediation service is essential for vehicles that have suffered from damp, leaks, or extended periods of neglect. By removing mould safely and effectively, we restore your vehicle’s interior to a fresh, hygienic condition, ensuring a healthier environment for you and your passengers.
