Causes of kitchen mould
Mould in the kitchen occurs due to a combination of moisture problems and heat. Poor ventilation leaks often play a significant role.
Condensation moisture
Tijdens het koken komt veel vocht vrij, vooral door condensatie van stoom. Apparaten zoals waterkokers, ovens, vaatwassers en kranen verhogen de luchtvochtigheid in de keuken. Zonder goede ventilatie blijft dit vocht hangen, wat schimmelgroei bevordert.
Leaks
Een lekkende leiding of een klein lek in de kraan kan vocht ophopen in verborgen plekken. Als deze lekkages niet tijdig worden opgespoord en opgelost, kunnen ze leiden tot schimmelvorming in muren, vloeren of keukenkasten.
The consequences
Mould in the kitchen can cause health problems, damage your property, and compromise hygiene. Addressing mould promptly is essential to prevent further issues.
Damage to your kitchen and home
Schimmel kan muren, plafonds en keukenkastjes ernstig beschadigen. Vooral houten keukenkastjes zijn gevoelig voor vocht, waardoor schimmelgroei snel escaleert.
In some cases, the damage can be so extensive that a full kitchen renovation is required.
An unhygienic environment
Mould looks unpleasant and creates a musty smell, which can negatively affect appetite. Many people choose to remove mould in the kitchen to restore the hygiene and appearance of the space.
Possible health issues
Mould can affect the respiratory system, causing symptoms like headaches, fatigue, and shortness of breath. People with allergies or sensitive airways are at higher risk.
Prolonged exposure can worsen these symptoms. If you experience health issues, we always recommend consulting a GP.
THE solutions!
Kitchen mould can be treated either by yourself or by a professional. Choosing the right approach depends on the extent and severity of the mould.
Removing it yourself
For early-stage mould, you can use vinegar, baking soda, or specialised cleaning products. Don’t forget to check areas behind kitchen cabinets or the fridge, as mould often grows unnoticed there.
Always ensure proper ventilation while cleaning and prevent moisture from lingering in the space.
Professional mould treatment
For persistent or hidden mould in the kitchen, hiring a specialist is the best option. Lavos Totaal Service not only removes mould thoroughly but also addresses the root cause, ensuring the problem doesn’t return.
We also provide advice to help you prevent future mould growth.
