Mould on Ceiling
Ceiling mould is more than an ugly stain. It means moisture has crept where it shouldn’t—usually from a hidden plumbing or roof leak. Left alone, that damp spot can weaken drywall, peel paint, and trigger asthma attacks. Same Day Trades sends fully licenced, police-checked plumbers to homes in Adelaide, Perth, and Brisbane the same day you call. We track down the leak, remove the mould, dry the ceiling, and give you simple steps to keep it from coming back.
Why Mould Forms on Ceilings
Hidden Plumbing Leaks
A pinhole in a copper pipe or a loose PEX fitting can drip for months inside the ceiling cavity. The insulation stays damp and mould spores flourish.
Poor Bathroom Ventilation
Steam rises during hot showers. Without a strong exhaust fan, that vapour lands on the cooler ceiling and feeds mould colonies.
Roof Plumbing Faults
Damaged flashing, cracked tiles, or a blocked box gutter let rainwater track into the ceiling. Mould often shows up far from the leak, making DIY detection tricky.
Everyday Condensation
In humid Australian summers, chilled air-conditioning can drop the ceiling surface below the dew point. Water droplets form night after night, soaking the plasterboard.
Fast fact: Once moisture is present, mould needs only 24–48 hours to start growing.
Signs You Need Professional Help
- Black or green patches keep returning after you wipe them.
- A musty smell hangs in the room.
- Paint bubbles or flakes near light fittings.
- Drywall feels soft or sags when you press it.
- Family members cough or sneeze more indoors than out.
- If two or more of those sound familiar, the problem has moved beyond surface cleaning—time to call in the experts.
Our 4-Step Mould Removal & Prevention Process
Leak Detection
We use moisture metres, thermal cameras, and tracer gas to pinpoint the source—whether it’s a loose shower waste, a cracked pipe, or roof-gutter overflow.
On-the-Spot Repairs
Our vans carry copper, PVC, and PEX fittings, so most leaks are fixed during the same visit. You won’t wait days for a return trip.
Mould Treatment
We remove visible colonies, scrub stains, and apply hospital-grade antimicrobials that kill spores without harsh odours. If plasterboard is too far gone, we cut it out and safely dispose of the damage.
Future-Proofing
We upgrade exhaust fans, insulate cold water lines, and leave a humidity control checklist. Prevention costs far less than another outbreak.

Preventing Mould on Your Ceiling
- Fix drips the day you spot them. A five-minute washer change beats a thousand-dollar ceiling repair.
- Run an exhaust fan for ten minutes after every shower. A humidity-sensing model does it automatically.
- Insulate cold-water pipes in the attic or ceiling to stop winter condensation.
- Keep indoor humidity below 60 percent. A twenty-dollar hygrometer tells you when to crack a window or switch on the dehumidifier.
- Book annual roof-plumbing checks. Sun, wind, and sudden storms can loosen flashing faster than you think.

- Perth—Joondalup to Rockingham, including Fremantle and Canning Vale.
