Is exterior mould on your home a problem?
You may be wondering why you need to worry about mould and mildew on the exterior of your home surfaces - after all, isn’t outdoor mould common? How exactly are you supposed to prevent mould spores on the outside of your home when it’s incredibly difficult to keep moisture off the exterior off your home?
It’s a problem for a number of reasons:
What starts outside doesn’t always stay outside! Mould on your roof or exterior walls may soon find its way in without you even realising it!
Mould can damage your home as it can literally eat away at your surfaces over time.
The appearance of mould can drastically bring down the value of your property because of course most homeowners, including you, don’t like the way mould looks.
But one of the major problems is the affect that mould has on you and your family’s health!
Mould carries health risks for you and your family. If you spend a lot of time outdoors in areas with significant amounts of mould, your health will suffer. Particularly for children who are more susceptible to mould-related health problems, so mould around the pool or play areas may end up becoming a hazardous playtime.
If you’ve started to notice the outside of your house turning green you may have also started to notice that you and your family are starting to suffer from:
Chronic Headaches
Frequent colds
Irritable, watery and red eyes
Respiratory infections
Asthma attacks
Sinus problems, sneezing and blocked noses
Reactions are more likely to occur if you or someone in your family are more susceptible to allergies and those with existing respiratory conditions however, even without these predispositions you may experience health problems without realising that your exterior mould is the perpetrator.
The best way to fix and prevent these issues is with an exterior high pressure clean and regular maintenance.
High pressure cleaning keeps mould from building up on your surfaces and more importantly prevents mould spores floating in the air and into your home.
Let’s not forget that your home looks much nicer without the unsightly green layer as well!
You’re probably not inspecting the outdoor surfaces of your home for cracks that could be harbouring mould.
High pressure cleaning can also expose large cracks on the outer surface of your home which were previously hidden by the layers of mould and mildew. As you will already suspect, gaping cracks and holes in your home allow moisture to seep in behind the walls. And you guessed it, now you have an indoor mould issue to contend with as well.
Regular pressure cleaning can help you keep on top of these types of issues by not only removing the mould on your exterior surfaces but also allowing you to seal cracks that you never knew existed.
