Car Mould Removal
Mould isn’t dirt. It’s alive.
That fur on your seats is a living crop, and its spores are already in every fabric in the car, which is why wiping it off never works. We deep clean the whole interior and kill the spores with an enzyme treatment, at your home or workplace. Proper car mould removal, from £225 +VAT, and most cars take about three hours.

What it is
A kill, not a wipe down
Mould grows from spores, and the spores don’t sit politely on the patch you can see. They’re in the seats, the belts, the carpets, the headlining and the vents. Wipe off the visible growth and the next crop is already seeded. So we clean and treat all of it, on every job.
- The whole interiorFull dry brushing and vacuum of every interior material first, then air vents and hidden crevices dust extracted.
- Fabrics and trimHeadlining, pillars and upper surfaces shampooed and extracted. Seats and seat belts deep cleaned with specialist agents. Leather and trim cleaned with ProChem Double Clean and a horsehair brush. Carpets shampooed and fully extracted.
- The killAn enzyme treatment that kills the spores rather than moving them around. This is the difference between mould removal and a valet.
- The finishHard surfaces deep cleaned and revitalised, a final inspection, and the interior dressed.
£225 +VAT
About three hours, at your home or workplace, and the price covers the whole interior rather than the bits that looked worst on the day.
Worth adding: the air con anti fungal treatment at £40 +VAT. Your ventilation system holds the same spores, and it’s the one place a deep clean can’t reach.
The honest bit
If the car is leaking, this is the wrong service
A deep clean holds when the car is dry. If water is getting in through a door seal, a windscreen or a blocked drain, the carpets and the soundproofing foam underneath them stay wet, and the mould will be back within weeks however well the surfaces were cleaned.
That car needs the interior stripped out and dried properly, which is a different job with its own page: our water ingress strip out service. Not sure which yours is? WhatsApp us a photo and we’ll tell you.
Where it comes from
The car stayed damp and shut
Almost every mouldy car we see got that way standing still. Damp kit or a wet dog blanket left in the boot, condensation from short winter runs that never dry the car out, or months parked up in storage or waiting on an insurance claim. Damp, warmth and still air are everything mould wants.
Keeping it gone afterwards is simple. Leave nothing damp in the car, and give it a proper run with the heater on now and then. Vehicles that stand for months, like motorhomes and caravans, benefit from being opened up and aired a few times over winter.

What goes with it
Where to go from here
Wet carpets, glass that mists up overnight, or mould that came back after a clean. The interior comes out, the leak gets found, and everything dries properly before it goes back in.
The same problem on a bigger scale. Mould treatment and full valeting for caravans, campervans and motorhomes, at your home or storage site.
