Mould Behind Furniture – The Hidden Problem in Banbridge
Expert Mould Remediation by Cleaning Contractors NI
Many Banbridge residents are unaware that mould may be silently growing out of sight—behind furniture against cold or poorly insulated walls. This hidden issue often causes health concerns and property damage long before it’s discovered. At Cleaning Contractors NI, our IICRC-certified team specialises in locating and eliminating hidden mould, ensuring homes and businesses across Banbridge are safe and healthy again.
Mould behind furniture is usually caused by condensation. External walls get cold, and when warm indoor air meets these surfaces, it creates moisture. Placing wardrobes, beds, or sofas directly against these walls reduces airflow, creating a dark, damp space where mould thrives.

Due to the moist Northern Irish climate, many homes in Banbridge suffer from poor ventilation or outdated insulation. This makes furniture against external walls especially vulnerable. Older properties and rental homes are at higher risk—especially where heating isn’t consistent.
Don’t ignore the signs. Mould doesn’t stay hidden forever. Once it spreads, it can affect the entire indoor environment.
