What moves the price
- How far the mould has spread — one wall in a bathroom is a small job, a whole flat a large one
- The cause of the damp — condensation is treated differently from penetrating or rising damp
- A damp survey — finding the cause first is often a separate charge before the mould removal
- Damaged plaster or timber — where mould has got into the fabric, repairs push the price up
- Anti-mould coating — a fungicidal treatment and mould-resistant paint are priced by the square metre
- London and the South East — mould removal there runs about a fifth to a third above the rest of the UK
Domestic cleaning prices in the UK are up 24% over five years (ONS Consumer Price Inflation, Domestic services and household services, to 2026 August). Five years ago a typical mould cleaning would have cost about £560 — an estimate from today's guide price and that index, not a recorded price. Source: ONS MM23 D7E6 →

How to pay less
- Fix the cause of the damp before paying for mould removal, or the mould will come back
- Ventilate and heat rooms steadily to cut the condensation that causes most household mould
- Ask for the mould removal and the anti-mould coating to be quoted together rather than separately
Before you book
- If you rent, damp and mould are your landlord's to put right — report it in writing
- Council environmental health teams can act on unresolved damp and mould in rented homes in England and Wales
- Do not brush mould off a wall, which releases spores — wipe it with a fungicidal wash instead
- Children, older people and anyone with lung conditions are most at risk from mould, so act quickly
Mould Cleaning cost: questions people ask
£300–£2,200 per job, about £700 on average. A small patch caused by condensation is the cheapest; mould across a whole property with plaster or timber to replace is the dearest; your postcode in the search above brings up specialists who cover you.
Half a day for a single room and two or more days for a whole property, plus drying time before any redecorating.
Most household mould comes from condensation on cold surfaces. Penetrating damp through walls or roofs and rising damp from the ground are less common causes.
Usually the landlord. Damp and mould are a landlord's responsibility, and social landlords in England now face strict time limits to investigate and fix them under Awaab's Law.
Damp-proof course work, roof and gutter repairs and redecorating are separate jobs priced on their own.
