Mould & Condensation Surveys
Mould can appear in different parts of a property for different reasons. In some buildings, it develops around windows and external walls. In others, it appears behind furniture, inside cupboards, or in poorly ventilated rooms. Our mould surveys and condensation investigations examine the property conditions contributing to the problem and provide a professional assessment of the likely causes.

- Mould Inspection & Reporting Overview
What Is a Mould Survey?
A mould survey is a specialist property inspection that investigates mould growth, condensation, and the conditions that may be contributing to them. We consider the affected areas alongside the wider property, helping to identify patterns, assess possible causes, and provide a professional assessment based on the observations made during the inspection.
Mould can appear around a bedroom window, behind a wardrobe or on an external wall, while other parts of the property remain unaffected. The location and pattern of the growth can reveal a great deal about what is happening within the building.
An experienced mould surveyor does more than record where mould is visible. The survey considers how the affected area relates to the rest of the property and whether any factors may be contributing to the problem.
Fitzgerald Surveying carries out mould surveying for homeowners, purchasers, landlords, and commercial property owners across South East England. No two properties are exactly alike, so every inspection is based on the conditions observed during the visit.
Our reports present the observations made during the survey together with our professional opinion on the issues identified during the inspection.

Mould Survey Questions, Answered
Mould can develop for several different reasons, and the visible signs do not always explain what is happening within a property. Below are answers to some of the questions we are commonly asked about mould inspections, condensation and property surveys.
A mould survey involves inspecting the affected areas, assessing the condition of the property, and considering the factors that may be contributing to mould growth and condensation.
It may be appropriate where mould growth continues to return, condensation remains persistent or the cause of the issue is unclear. The survey considers both the mould observed and the wider property conditions.
A mould survey can assist purchasers in understanding the extent of any mould concerns before a transaction proceeds. This can be particularly useful where mould has been noted during a viewing or another property inspection.
Not every mould issue requires mould testing. In many cases, the condition of the property, the pattern of mould growth and the observations made during the survey provide sufficient information for assessment.
Condensation mould returns when the underlying conditions that allow it to develop remain unchanged. Ventilation, airflow, room usage and surface temperatures can all influence recurring mould growth.
The mould survey cost depends on factors such as the size of the property, the extent of the areas affected and the scope of the instruction. Surveys typically start from £250 for a standard residential inspection, with costs varying according to the complexity and scope of the work required. Contact us directly for a quotation tailored to your property.
The mould survey cost UK property owners pay will vary depending on the property and the level of investigation required. The most accurate way to obtain a fee is to request a quotation based on the specific circumstances.
It is advisable to contact a mould surveyor when mould continues to return, spreads to multiple areas, affects a property purchase, or when the cause of the problem is unclear. An independent assessment can help establish the factors contributing to the issue.
