Mould reduction in Newcastle & the Hunter

Humidity from the river mouth and the ocean at once, East Coast Lows, and a commercial stock that predates modern moisture management.

The conditions

Why buildings here are at risk

Newcastle sits at the mouth of the Hunter River with direct Pacific exposure, so moisture arrives from two directions and there is no genuine dry season. East Coast Lows drive water into building envelopes through routes that are not obvious — deteriorating cladding, box gutters, poor site drainage — and it can sit in cavities for weeks before anything is visible or detectable by smell.

The building stock

Older CBD and Hamilton commercial stock with no vapour barriers and original glazing. Industrial and port facilities through Mayfield, Kooragang and Carrington. Newer commercial development around Honeysuckle and Charlestown. Buildings constructed before 1987 across the region may contain asbestos, which constrains any destructive approach.

What we get called for

Post-storm water ingress that goes undetected until spring. Port and industrial facilities with continuous humidity. Aged care and healthcare across the Hunter serving a large ageing population. Buildings where asbestos makes non-destructive treatment strongly preferable.
