Northern Rivers Mould Removal takes enquiries across the full range of mould inspection and remediation services. We are a referral service, not a contractor, and we don’t carry out the work. Every job is quoted and carried out by an independent local contractor, and the conditions that shape the work here, subtropical coastal humidity and the post-flood legacy, are exactly what to ask any contractor about.
Every service starts with an honest assessment of what you’re actually dealing with. We won’t push you toward full remediation when surface treatment is appropriate, and we won’t downplay a situation that needs thorough professional intervention. Our goal is to point you at the right solution for your specific situation.

Bathroom & Ceiling Mould Removal
The most common mould call in Northern Rivers. The contractor assesses whether it’s surface mould (treatable with professional-grade antimicrobials) or structural penetration (requiring remediation). A proper job doesn’t stop at cleaning the visible patch, it identifies the moisture source and addresses prevention.
Best for: Bathroom ceiling mould, kitchen mould, laundry mould, surface mould on walls and ceilings in high-humidity rooms.
Subfloor & Roof Void Mould
Concealed mould in subfloor spaces and roof voids is very common in Northern Rivers’ older homes. HEPA-filtered extraction, antimicrobial fogging into confined spaces, ventilation assessment, and recommendations for preventing recurrence.
