Causes of moulds
Mould in the meter cupboard is frequently caused by moisture problems, often from multiple sources. Rising moisture, condensation on pipes and leaks are common causes.
Rising moisture
In veel woningen trekt vocht vanuit de crawl space and basement omhoog door kieren in de vloer. In meterkasten zonder vloer of met slecht afgedichte gaten voor leidingen en kabels komt dit vocht nog sneller naar boven, wat schimmelvorming bevordert.
Moisture due to condensation on pipes
Cold water pipes in the meter cupboard often cause condensation. The temperature difference between the cold pipes and the warmer environment causes water droplets on the pipes or water meter.
Water meter leak
A leak in the water meter or pipes can cause mould. Although this sometimes looks like condensation, a leak can be confirmed by drying the pipe with a cloth. If new drops appear immediately, there is a leak.
This problem requires quick action to prevent further moisture build-up and mould growth.
The consequences
Mould in the meter cupboard can cause health problems and damage to your home. Early intervention is essential to prevent bigger problems.
Consequences for your home
Schimmel in de meterkast verspreidt zich snel naar andere ruimtes, zoals de woonkamer, waar het meer zichtbare schade kan aanrichten. Als het probleem niet wordt aangepakt, kan het zelfs de fundering van uw woning aantasten, wat kostbare reparaties vereist.
In addition, visible mould and damp problems can significantly reduce the value of your home.
Possible health issues
Although the meter cupboard is not a room you frequent, mould can still cause health issues.
Mould spores can aggravate respiratory complaints such as shortness of breath, coughing or headaches. Long-term exposure can increase the risks, especially in people with sensitive health.
In case of health complaints, we recommend consulting a (general) physician.
THE solutions!
Mold can be removed by yourself or tackled by a specialist. For lasting results, it is important to tackle the cause of the problem.
Removing it yourself
If you want to remove mould yourself, you need to tackle the cause first. Without this, moisture problems will persist and mould will return. Make sure you repair leaks, improve ventilation and stop rising damp.
Use an appropriate cleaning product and protect yourself with gloves and a mouth mask while cleaning.

Schimmel in de meterkast herkent u aan een muffe geur en vochtige plekken op de onderkant van de muren, het plafond of de stoppenkast.
In een vergevorderd stadium kunnen er zelfs zwarte vlekken ontstaan, want zwarte schimmel is de meest voorkomende soort in de meterkast. Roze of groene schimmel komt minder vaak voor, maar is ook mogelijk.
This depends on your insurance and on the cause of the mould. Damages because of leaks or construction defects is often compensated.
No, mould never disappears on its own! While reduced moisture may slow its growth, the spores remain and can multiply again when moisture levels increase.
