Thanks. We went with the Dettol approach last night. That seems to have worked without damaging the wallpaper. There seems to be a few little spots left. They are so small its hard to know if they are tiny holes in the wallpaper or mould. Tough scrubbing will only rip the wallpaper so...

Afternoon. I've just moved a plastic art folder that was behind a couch only to find the wallpaper behind the art folder is covered in mould. It's in my front room and I think it's been there about a year. I'm assuming long term I'll need to redo the wallpaper. Short term? I was...

Because building contractors source by our insurance company have checked, tested and explained to us that the dpc has failed. They never said bridged.
