The old hilltop town
Narrow lanes, stone houses joined together, staircases, few windows facing outward. Walls stay cold and damp all year, and black patches come back every winter in the same place.
Ventimiglia and the Roya valley
Mold removal in Ventimiglia, without construction work
Ventimiglia is the closest Italian town to us. Two realities overlap: the old hilltop town, stone-built and tightly packed, and the lower town along the Roya, where the water table is high and ground floors take up damp through the floor.
We remove black mould from walls and ceilings, treat shower joints and cold corners, without breaking anything and without a building site. Send a photo and you get the rate, the surface counted and the final figure before we travel out.
What we see most often in Ventimiglia
The local building stock explains most cases. Here is what comes up again and again.
Lower town and the Roya
High water table and damp ground. Salt efflorescence rises through the wall, plaster lifts along the first thirty centimetres, and mould settles just above it.
Flats in the centre
Older blocks often with no mechanical ventilation and internal bathrooms with no window. Mould starts in the tile joints and on the shower ceiling, then moves behind the furniture.
Cellars, garages and service rooms
Buried rooms with poor ventilation, beading pipework, storage against the walls. This is the usual starting point, and the smell reaches the flats before the patches appear.
Before / after
Example of a treated surface: visible mold is cleaned, the area is sanitized and prepared to stay clean.
Before
AfterMold removal without construction work
Treatment of affected surfaces with suitable products, 3-month guarantee. First pass €25 per m² of surface actually treated — not the floor area of the room, but the area we really work on — and every further pass cheaper than the one before. Visible mould needs 3 to 5 passes, an old infestation 5 to 15. Clean surfaces in the same room are treated preventively from €15/m². We clean visible mold without breaking walls, painting or heavy renovation. Rates and worked examples
Minimum call-out in this town: €150 (zone A), travel included.
Diagnosis, cellars and cleaning
Cause diagnosis and room climate survey — surface temperature readings, humidity, dew point, ventilation, with a written report. A separate service, €150 in zone A and €200 in zone B, credited against treatment ordered within 30 days. What the report contains
We also treat cellars and outdoor surfaces — facades, plinths, terraces — from the ground, up to 4 m, on an individual quotation.
After treatment we can also provide simple cleaning of the room. Cleaning is available at €25 per hour, minimum 3 hours, excluding construction waste.

Common questions in Ventimiglia
The wall is crumbling and going white at the bottom — is that mould?
The white powdery deposit at the foot of a wall is salt efflorescence, not mould: it is left behind by water rising from the ground. The two often go together. We treat the mould, but until the rising damp is dealt with it comes back.
