Suffering from mold and condensation in your home? | Aquavent

Do you have mold in your home?

Mold and condensation are becoming increasingly common in Flemish homes. Better insulation leads to faster problems with the indoor climate. Mold appears in spots on porous surfaces, especially in cold places.

Condensation forms on non-porous surfaces, such as windows or tiles. Mold is unhealthy and difficult to remove. Aquavent offers a free diagnosis and a customized solution.

How do you recognize mold problems?

Rising damp is often recognized by visible damage, such as curling wallpaper, saltpetre that pushes the paint outwards, or loose plaster and skirting boards. Do you hear the finishing layers sounding hollow? Then you are probably dealing with rising damp.

With rising damp, you always see the damage on the ground floor or in the basement. As a market leader in damp control, we offer a free diagnosis and confirmation.

Why solve a mold problem?

Rising damp occurs when moisture from the ground rises through the walls. This usually happens because the damp-proof course in the brickwork is old, damaged or completely absent. As soon as this protective layer no longer functions properly, the moisture can freely pass through the brickwork and cause damage to walls, plasterwork, paint and floors.

Why is moisture expertise necessary?

When there is mold in the house, it is of the utmost importance to determine the correct cause. Is the mold in the house the result of another moisture problem or does it come purely from a saturated climate?

What causes the saturation? Is the mold deep-rooted or is it still fairly easy to remove without extra anti-fungal products and when is the best time to remove it?

Our moisture expert will gladly visit you to thoroughly inspect the mold problem and propose a customized solution.

How do we work

Our approach combines professional knowledge with careful execution, so that every step contributes to a lasting result.

Our approach to molds

Mold problems are mainly related to a saturated indoor climate. The correct solution is therefore to provide sufficient ventilation in the rooms where the saturation occurs and which are therefore the basis of the mold formation.
Different types of ventilation exist for different rooms.

Aquavent installs every type of ventilation system (central, decentralized) and is therefore your ideal expert to propose a correct ventilation solution tailored to your home.
In certain extreme cases, mold formation can also be caused by the presence of extreme cold bridges. In that case, extra insulation is the only correct solution to solve a condensation problem. Aquavent can also help you with this and propose a correct total solution.

How is mold removed?

You can usually remove mold in the house with anti-fungal components diluted with water if the problem is superficial. Think of bleach/chlorine or ammonia in combination with warm water.

You let the mixture soak into the wall and then remove the mold from the surface with a kitchen sponge. In the case of deeper mold formation, it may still be necessary to work with an anti-fungal product such as fungicide.

In that case, it is best to call in Aquavent because these products can be quite aggressive and you can only use them with appropriate protection. Once the molds have been removed and the cause has been correctly addressed (insulation/ventilation), the molds will not return.
