02. What Mould Removal at Bling Bling covers
The scope of work in Vienna at a glance — what the contract says and what actually happens on site.
Fine cleaning, check, prevention
After the drying come the fine cleaning of all surfaces with a fine particulate filter vacuum, a follow-up check and the handover with photographs and measured values. Along with the sober recommendation of what has to be changed about the building or about its use so that it stays away.
Cellar, plinth and walls in contact with the ground
The first thing to separate out is what has actually been found: white, powdery salt efflorescence is not mould, and condensation on a cold wall has a different cause from moisture rising in the masonry. The masonry moisture is measured across the depth, efflorescence is taken off dry, and the ventilation is switched to hygrostat control where that makes sense.
Roof, timber structure and vapour retarder
The timber moisture is measured with an insertion electrode at several points, discolouration on rafters, sheathing and the retarder membrane is documented, and the construction is opened only by agreement. Where wood-destroying fungi are suspected, the work stops and is handed over; it is not cleaned.
Bathroom and wet room without strip-out
Silicone joints replaced with a fungicidal compound, tile joints reworked, the shower tray junction and the drain checked, along with measurement of the extract air volume flow and a check on the backflow valve. Much of what happens in a bathroom is a ventilation matter and not a cleaning one.
Sampling and the route to the laboratory
Adhesive tape samples, contact plates and an air sample with a comparative measurement of the outside air are taken correctly and handed to an accredited laboratory. The finding is assessed by the laboratory, not by us by eye.
Recording over weeks
Data loggers record the temperature and the relative humidity in the room and at the cold surface over two to four weeks. The evaluation, with the dew point over time, is the basis on which it becomes possible at all to distinguish between use and a building defect.
In the period stock, replacing the windows is trigger number one: the wall stays the same, the moisture stays in, and the reveal and the roller shutter box become the cold spot. Brick masonry with basement and courtyard-level storeys frequently has no horizontal damp-proof course, which is why rising damp and salt efflorescence in the plinth area are part of the standard picture. Because in let properties the managing agent, the owner and the tenant argue over the cause, recording over weeks is the most important service here, and narrow courtyards with little sunlight make north-facing rooms additionally susceptible.
03. Mould Removal: Bling Bling vs. the competition
Mould is a moisture problem and not a cleanliness problem: as long as the cause remains, the growth comes back, and usually within a few weeks in the same place. The second underestimated point is the remediation itself, because removing it releases considerably more spores into the room air than leaving it alone — without containment one distributes the growth through the whole flat. That is why we measure first, work in a contained area under negative pressure, take out layers that are grown through instead of painting over them, and evidence the drying with figures. We give the cost range after the inspection, because the area, the construction and the cause determine the work involved. In Vienna, Bling Bling works with the same core team that knows the building.

06. 10 reasons for Mould Removal from Bling Bling
What a cleaning company has to be measured against — and which of it can be verified.
1In business since 2014
A family firm, not a franchise and not a broker — whoever quotes also carries out the work.
2Registered core team
Permanently employed and properly registered. No chain of subcontractors where nobody is liable at the end.
3The same people every time
The team knows the building, the access and the routines. Cover is arranged and named in advance.
4€3m public liability
Personal injury, property and financial loss covered; the certificate is attached to the quotation.
5RKI/VAH-listed agents, HACCP
Listed agents, trained staff, a cleaning and disinfection plan for each building.
6Multilingual
German, English and five further languages — the briefing gets through.
7No price without a site visit
A flat price over the phone rarely holds. After the visit the framework is set out in writing. A monthly flat rate applies to weekly recurring cleaning; one-off and deep cleans by effort - hourly, per square metre or flat - travel included.
8Dated proof
Record of each visit and photo documentation, reported monthly.
9Measuring equipment and documentation are part of it
Moisture and temperature measurement, the dew point calculation, a photographic series before and after the work and a handover record are part of the service. That is the basis when an insurer, a managing agent or a tenant needs evidence.
10Dryers with a separate meter and a running-time record
Units are set up with their own electricity meter, the running time and the consumption are documented, and in cold rooms desiccant dryers are used — so that the share of the electricity can be evidenced for the insurer and the managing agent.

08. Mould Removal for 5 typical situations
The same service looks different depending on the occasion — these five situations come up most often.
Discolouration on rafters or the vapour retarder in the loft
A finding in a roof build-up can be condensation, a leaking retarder or a leak, and the range extends as far as wood-destroying fungi. First it is measured, then opened, never the other way round.
A cellar with efflorescence and a musty smell
Often affected stored goods are standing in the middle of it. First clear and separate, then establish the findings across the depth of the wall, then the decision on ventilation, drying or waterproofing.
A dispute over the cause between tenant and managing agent
When use is set against a building defect, no snapshot helps. We install loggers, let them run for weeks and hand over an evaluation that both sides can work with.
After a burst pipe or water ingress
Here hours count: on soaked building materials growth begins within one to three days. First get the water out and start the drying, then assess the substance.
Black spots in the corner of an external wall
The classic winter growth at the coldest point, often behind a cupboard with no gap to the wall. That is a dew point matter and is traced through measured values.
★ Worth knowing
What is often misjudged about Mould Removal
Said up front, on the facts — not after the invoice.
A tight envelope without a ventilation concept moves the problem elsewhere
Old windows were the leak through which moisture flowed away uncontrolled; after they are replaced the same moisture load stays in the room, and a household of four puts several litres of water a day into the air through breathing, showering, cooking and drying laundry. At the same time the wall behind new insulation becomes warmer, but the reveal, the roller shutter box, the window sill junction and the area at the edge of the ceiling stay cold and become the new coldest point — and that is where the growth appears in the first winter after the work. The regulations set a minimum requirement for the room-side surface temperature and call for evidence on protection against condensation, which in practice means a ventilation concept: frame rebate vents, humidity-controlled extract or a system with heat recovery. We measure the actual surface temperatures, show the margin to the dew point and state what is missing in constructional terms.
Mould needs no droplets, only cold surfaces
At twenty degrees room air and sixty per cent relative humidity the dew point lies at about twelve degrees — at a thermal bridge at eleven degrees water comes out of the air without anybody seeing a wet patch. In fact spores begin to germinate well before that, at approximately eighty per cent humidity directly at the surface, which is why building physics works with a minimum value for the room-side surface temperature: DIN 4108-2 sets a temperature factor of 0.7 for this, which under standard climate conditions corresponds to about 12.6 degrees, and ÖNORM B 8110-2 governs protection against condensation in building construction. In practice that means: furniture with a gap to the wall, ventilate the moisture load away, and deal with the cold spot in constructional terms — wiping it off treats only the consequence.
Chlorine bleach and vinegar are not a remediation
Chlorine decolourises the pigment, so that the spot looks clean while the mycelium stays sitting in the plaster; killed material also remains allergenic, so this is about removal and not about killing. Vinegar is doubly wrong on a mineral substrate, because as an organic acid it brings a nutrient with it and lowers the protective alkaline character of plaster and limewash. What makes professional sense is seventy to eighty per cent alcohol or hydrogen peroxide on small smooth areas — absorbent layers have to come out, and the mould guidance of the German Federal Environment Agency draws the line at about half a square metre: above that, the remediation belongs in professional hands, including containment.

●. Frequently asked questions about Mould Removal in Vienna
What does Mould Removal cost?
There is no price before the site visit, and a figure given over the phone rarely holds. We look at surfaces, access and time windows, and then the cost framework is set out in writing with a schedule of services. What changes the price: the area, the frequency, the condition at handover and the time of day the work is done. Two rules apply everywhere: a monthly flat rate is only offered for recurring cleaning at least once a week, including stairwells. One-off jobs, first cleans and deep cleans are billed by effort - depending on the service by the hour at a higher rate, by square metre or as a flat price - and travel time there and back counts.
Is the site visit really free?
Yes, free of charge and without obligation. It is the only way to quote seriously, so we treat it as part of the offer, not as a service to be paid for.
Does the same person come every time?
Yes. The team is permanently employed and knows the building, the access arrangements and the routines. Cover is arranged in advance and named, and it works from the building log, not from a verbal handover.
Is your staff properly registered?
All of them, with social insurance. No chain of subcontractors in which nobody is liable at the end. Proof is provided on request.
What insurance is in place?
Public liability of €3m, covering personal injury, property damage and financial loss. The certificate is attached to the quotation.
What happens if something is not right?
It is put right within 48 hours, in writing, at no extra cost. Measured against the schedule of services and a joint inspection, not against an impression.
Can you work outside business hours?
Yes — early, late, at weekends or on public holidays. In occupied buildings, daytime cleaning in sections is often the better option, because the client sees the work and can raise anything immediately.
Do I have to provide materials or a room?
Materials and equipment we bring. What helps is a lockable store with a slop sink, space for the trolley and somewhere for pads to dry — damp pads in a closed bag are the most common source of smell in an otherwise clean building.
What notice period applies?
The contract is terminable monthly. There is no minimum term and no automatic extension by the year.
Do you also work in English?
Yes — German, English and five further languages. The briefing gets through, which matters more on site than it sounds.
Which documents do I get?
A schedule of services with frequencies, a dated record of each visit, photo documentation before and after, and a monthly report.
How quickly can you start?
Usually within a few working days of the quotation being accepted. Short-notice jobs are most readily possible in Vienna, because travel times within a district are short.
