Following a previous post I made about condensation in my house I need the walls cleaned as I'm not able to do it myself unfortunately.
I've had a look around a few cleaning companies but can't really see anyone who offers wall cleaning/scrubbing mould off.
Can anyone give any recommendations of someone who might be able to do this for me? There is a fair amount of it including ceilings, but shouldn't take much more than a day or two I'd have thought - from what I'm told it needs a bleach/water solution and a bit of scrubbing.

If your getting a decorator in why not ask him to do it? Most would do it pre decoration anyway;-)
I'm not quite ready for the decorator is the thing. For the time being I just want it cleaned off :)
This seems like you could hire an unskilled laborer for. How much are you prepared to pay? Put that out there and you should get some responses.
I'd say it's probably a day's work. £80 cash?Originally Posted by NYCBlue wrote on Mon, 11 January 2016 00:40
Sugar soap solution is the best wat to clean down walls pre painting
Any decent decorator would do it for you if he was short of work
Sod this cash in hand nonsense you just get piss artists
I would charge a minimum of 100 a day , if it took me half a day , fifty , by cheque
And once done , dont have the heating turned up too much and keep a small window open
Weather you use bleach or sugar soap you need to clean down afterwards and dry downThis seems like you could hire an unskilled laborer for. How much are you prepared to pay? Put that out there and you should get some responses.
I'll give you £100 sludge but I don't have a cheque book :)This seems like you could hire an unskilled laborer for. How much are you prepared to pay? Put that out there and you should get some responses.That makes sense. Any idea what a fair price be per day should be for something like this?
I would be happy to do it for you if my old man wasn't I'll with Alzheimer's .....I would only ever work for cheque or declare my cash payments , I would charge the going rate for a city and build qualified decorator , 120 a day
Hope you find someone mate , all the best
You need an anti fungal wash diluted in water such as this here:

Whoever you get to do the job make sure an anti fungal solution is used. Anything else will clean off the mould but not stop it regrowth.
Good luck!
Cheers for the advice all.
Just use a mold killing bath spray. There is a spray to get rid of mold. Simply spray on leave 5 mins and wash off. Kills the mould straight off.
Dettol mould and mildew remover is what I used.
That looks like it might be worth it... I'll have a look into it. Cheers mate.
But the other issue is that the Dettol product comes in a spray and putting that on the walls will involve a dangerous amount of inhalation. That stuff is great for cleaning baths but not wide areas. Use the professional stuff which is painted on as indicated in my earlier post.Dettol mould and mildew remover is what I used.
I've used it many times, works a charmDettol mould and mildew remover is what I used.
Have to agree with what is said here. You will need to ventilate the area, its rather noxious. And will smell like a swimming pool for a day. Fine for patches of mould, but if its covering a whole wall then use the fungicidal wash.Dettol mould and mildew remover is what I used.That looks like it might be worth it...
