The removal of fungi and moistening.Anti-Fungal & Damp Treatment Services in Nepal.

If any of the above sounds familiar, you're not the only one, because that's what most bedrooms have on their walls, the bathroom smells like a musty room, and the paint chips right after the monsoon. Mould and mildew can thrive on the humid summer days and abundant rainfall in Kathmandu, particularly in poorly ventilated older buildings. We don't just paint over the patch. Our teams identify where the moisture is really originating, treat the wall correctly and seal off the wall, with the result of the fungus never re-appearing next season.

Our Anti-Fungal & Damp Treatment Services

Surface Cleaning and Fungal Wash

Any loose paint or mould which is visible on the surface is scraped off and the wall is then chemically washed externally to kill any mould spores on the surface and inside the pores of the plaster.

Damp-Sealing and Priming

A damp-sealing and priming primer will seal and prime any residual moisture that has been left by bleeding through after your fresh paint job.

Waterproofing Coats

Where there is active seepage or rising damp, we apply a waterproofing layer on the walls prior to application of the primer, where necessary. In case it's the roof or terrace slab itself, our RCC roof waterproofing team takes care of that aspect too.

Anti-Fungal Topcoat and Repainting

Anti-fungal topcoat and repainting the final coat is a moisture-resistant, anti-fungal paint that will improve the appearance of the wall, and also protect it for the future. Our texture and decorative paint service can replicate a textured or decorative look where you would like one instead of flat paint.

Ventilation and Moisture-Source Advice

When it is really about ventilation or moisture-source and it is due to a lack of airflow, or a hidden leak, we mark it with a flag, so that we can actually get a long lasting solution.

Materials & Options

Anti-Fungal Chemical Wash

Anti-fungal chemical wash is used on nearly every job as the initial stage and it kills existing mould and mildew in the surface and within the plaster.

Damp-Proof Primer

Damp-proof primer blocks up any moisture seeping up from the ground or bleeding through from behind the plaster - standard for older ground-floor rooms.

Waterproof Coating

Waterproofing applied during water seepage from exterior surfaces usually from exterior walls and ceilings under terraces or flat roofs.

Anti-Fungal Topcoat Paint

The last coat is to be applied as anti-fungal paint that will resist regrowth; in bathrooms and in other rooms that are always humid a stronger paint is to be used.

●       Bathrooms and rooms on the lower level have a musty odor that won't dissipate.

●       The paint's lack of adhesion to the wall is due to the paint's being applied too thin or to the walls being too clean.

●       Spread of dark patches on ceilings beneath terraces or flat roofs:

●       The presence of white powdery deposits on the walls (efflorescence)

Many of the damp issues stem both from behind the wall and not from the wall itself. We can also send our team of tin and sheet roofers in case the water supply line is leaking in the plaster or if the roof covering above a ceiling is not working and continues to stain the plaster, we will get the leak fixed first before we take care of the finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to get rid of fungus from a wet wall?

Loose paint and surface growth is removed and the wall is then coated with an anti-fungal wash to destroy any lingering spores and then sealed with a damp-resistant primer and repainted. The fungus will return if a moisture source is not removed.

Treatment for walls, what is the best anti-fungal treatment?

This depends upon the cause. The surface fungus will typically respond to a chemical wash plus a primer. If the walls are suffering from rising damp or active seepage, it is essential they are first waterproofed, and then the anti-fungal topcoat is applied.

What can I do to prevent mould and damp reappearing?

It is essential to repair the actual source of the leak, lack of ventilation or seepage from the outside of the wall in addition to the wall treatment. Both help to improve airflow as well as an effective sealing of exterior walls.

Which is the primary reason for dampness and mouldy wall of Nepal?

Weak exterior waterproofing, cracks, infiltration of monsoon rainwater, rising damp in older structures, leaking pipes that are difficult to find and poor ventilation in bathrooms and rooms on the ground floor.
