Independent inspection, moisture mapping and reporting for tenants, homeowners and property managers. We document the cause, extent and likely repair pathway before anyone starts selling you the fix.

[ signs of contamination ]
50% of QLD homes had mould within 12 months. Does yours?
Visible mould is only one signal. We document moisture patterns, material damage, odour and air movement so hidden contamination has somewhere to show itself.
01Visible
Water staining on walls or ceilings
Brown rings, tide marks, swollen paint and shadowing can point to roof leaks, plumbing failures, condensation or historical wetting. The cause changes the response.
DocumentsMoisture path
02Weather
Wet weather, storms and floods
Heavy rain, stormwater overflow and flood events can push moisture into places that look dry again by inspection day. We check what the weather left behind.
DocumentsEvent history
03Hidden
Musty odour without visible growth
A persistent smell can come from wall cavities, cabinetry, underlay, HVAC or damp contents. We pair odour notes with readings instead of guessing.
DocumentsLikely reservoir
04Moisture
Condensation, humidity and cold surfaces
Wet windows, cold external walls and damp cupboards can create mould without a pipe leak. Dew-point risk is measurable, not a matter of opinion.
DocumentsDew-point risk
05Materials
Soft plaster, lifted paint, swollen timber
Material failure tells us how long moisture has been present and whether cleaning is enough. Sometimes the affected material has already lost the argument.
DocumentsDamage extent
06Recurring
Mould that returns after cleaning
Regrowth usually means the moisture source is still active or the contaminated material was never properly dealt with. Surface cleaning is not a diagnosis.
DocumentsRoot cause
07Airflow
Dust, HVAC and indoor-air symptoms
Air movement can carry spores away from the source. We check the room, the system and the surrounding moisture conditions before pointing at the obvious patch.

[ evidence before argument ]
Unbiased testing and documentation of damage, for everyone involved.
One in two Australians reported mould or dampness at home in the previous year. In Queensland rentals, damp and mould can also become a minimum housing standards issue. A Sporetrust report turns stains, odour, moisture and damage into a record people can act on.
01 / Hidden
Not all contamination is visible.
Odour, damp materials and elevated indoor spores can show a problem before a wall turns black. We look past the surface without turning the home into a demolition site.
02 / Standards
Mould can become a liveability issue.
Queensland rental homes must meet minimum housing standards during the tenancy, including damp and mould rules unless the issue is tenant-caused. Evidence matters.
03 / Leverage
A report changes the conversation.
Photos can be argued with. Moisture readings, likely cause, affected materials and liveability notes give your request a record people can act on.
01 / Cause
Find the moisture source first.
Leak, condensation, ventilation and historical wetting can look similar from the room. The repair path changes once the cause is measured.
02 / Insurance
Claims need more than photos.
Insurers need causation, extent and timing. We document what is affected and why, before repair quotes start shaping the facts.
03 / Scope
Control the cost before works begin.
An independent report helps you compare remediation, building and cleaning scopes against the actual damage, not the most expensive version of the story.
01 / Record
A neutral record for both sides.
When mould is reported, owners and tenants need the same independent picture: what is present, what caused it and what needs to happen next.
02 / Priority
Know what is urgent.
Moisture readings, material damage and room conditions help separate a cleaning issue from a repair issue, and a minor concern from a habitability risk.
03 / Scope
Brief contractors with evidence.
A diagnostic report gives remediation and building providers a clearer scope, while keeping the advice independent from the company quoting the fix.

Mould doesn't look the same to every home.
What you're seeing — or not seeing yet — determines the right diagnostic. Pick the pathway that matches your situation.

[ a note on independence ]
We don't sell mould treatments, fogging, encapsulants or repairs. In an uneven remediation market, your first document should come from someone who isn't quoting the cleanup.
[ common questions ]
Before you book.
Still unsure? Send us a quick note in the booking form. We'll come back the same business day.
No. We inspect, document and report. If remediation or building work is needed, we can point you toward vetted providers with the right speciality, but we do not clip the ticket on the cleanup.
Some remediation providers are excellent. Others overscope, underscope or sell surface treatments that miss the moisture source. There is no single mould-remediation licence that guarantees the scope is right, so diagnosis should come before the quote.
Most homes take around 45 minutes. Larger homes, multiple buildings or sites with complex history can take longer. We'll let you know in advance once we've reviewed your booking notes.
Your digital report lands in your portal within 48 hours of the on-site visit. The lab analysis appendix — spore count and species — arrives 5-7 days after sampling, depending on lab turnaround.
That's still a useful answer, and you'll get it documented. A low-risk report with prevention guidance is valuable to have on file, especially as a tenant, owner or buyer.
Our cost ranges are defensible bands based on current South-East Queensland trade rates, the materials affected and the scope indicated by the diagnosis. They let you budget with confidence and benchmark every quote you receive.
Yes. The report is built for that handoff: landlord, property manager, insurer, builder, remediation provider or tribunal support file.
