Commercial mould assessment and remediation in Karratha

Working in Karratha

Jobs in Karratha, Dampier, Wickham and Roebourne are done by PMS crews travelling from our head office in Wangara, in Perth.

Moisture drives almost every mould job here. Wet season rain, and the heavy falls that come with a cyclone, get into roofs, wall cavities and ceiling spaces, and a building that stays damp for a few days in the heat can grow mould quickly. Air-conditioned offices and accommodation also collect condensation on cold ducts, coils and ceilings, and a blocked drain tray keeps the surfaces around it wet. If the water source isn't found and fixed, mould comes back after cleaning, so every assessment starts with where the water is coming from.

Industrial, port and resource sites around Karratha have their own entry rules. Before we arrive we plan the job with the site team: access times, any inductions or permits the site requires, how the work area will be isolated, and who signs off at the end.

Where the extent isn't obvious, we take air or surface samples and send them to a NATA-accredited laboratory. The report shows what was found and whether the area needs a clean, a ventilation fix or remediation.
