Richards Bay notes on damp & mould services
Mould in rentals in Meerensee, Arboretum and Empangeni is a regular call, and the sensible contractor finds the leak or the missing ventilation as well as cleaning. After a storm, restoration firms extract water and dry floors and ceilings, and plants sometimes hire dehumidifiers for a few days. Inspections suit anyone buying an older house, and repairs keep ageing units working in this salty air.
Richards Bay: the weather, the buildings and the damp
Richards Bay is warm and wet for much of the year, with a coastal climate that stays humid even in winter, and with rain concentrated in the summer months. It is a port and industrial town first: the deepwater harbour handles coal, minerals and timber products, and heavy industry sits around the bay. That puts a lot of weight on storage, containers and plant rooms that need dry air, and on offices and workshops with older air conditioning. Houses in Meerensee, Arboretum and Birdswood get mould in bathrooms and on walls behind furniture, and Empangeni, a short drive inland, is a market town with similar humid problems.
Typical mould removal requests in the area come from:
- Factories and food plants: affected areas cleaned and treated in a way that suits the plant's hygiene rules, ask the firm
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: a documented clean and repair for a rental after a tenant complaint, with the cause identified
- Offices, schools and clinics: mould treated in a storeroom or meeting room before it reaches stored paper and furniture
