In older apartment stock the cause of mould and smells is usually in the shared ventilation, not in the flat.
We travel out to Vangazi and carry out sanitary treatment of premises: mould removal, odour removal, ozone treatment and treatment after flooding, a sewage incident, illness or a long spell standing empty. The properties here are mainly flats in apartment buildings, detached houses and small-scale working premises.
We have no premises and no staff in Vangazi — we travel on request and agree a day. The town is small and compact, so several properties can usually be dealt with in one call-out if they are close to one another.
Vangazi grew up as a town of industrial origin, and much of the housing stock consists of apartment buildings from that period. That specifically changes where to look for the cause of a problem.
So in a flat the first thing we check is the draught, not the size of the patch. You can check it yourself: hold a thin strip of paper against the ventilation grille in the kitchen and the bathroom. If it does not move, there is no draught — and that is the cause, not the effect.
If the patch appeared a year after the windows were replaced, it is almost always a question of air supply rather than fungal growth.
Related descriptions: flat disinfection and odour removal. If the smell has soaked into furniture and textiles — ozone treatment.
The area around Vangazi is wooded, and some houses stand on tree-enclosed plots. The practical consequence is shade: the façade dries more slowly after rain, and the north-facing wall stays cooler. Inside, airborne moisture condenses on that coolest surface. It is worth checking in the specific house — two houses on the same street can be in completely different condition.
The second property type is working premises — workshops, ancillary rooms and warehouse-type spaces in the areas of industrial heritage. There we price by area and plan the work around the time window: after treatment the space must not be used for a set period and then has to be aired.
Preparation usually takes longer than the treatment itself, and that is where things most often snag. If the space is not ready, we either wait or work to a smaller scope than you had planned.
A question we hear often: how long the space cannot be used after the work. That depends on the method and the area — from a few hours to half a day, and then the space has to be aired. We give the exact figure before the work so you can plan around it rather than find out at the last moment.
The other frequent question is how long the result will hold. The honest answer: as long as the cause stays dealt with. If the draught has been restored and the source of damp removed, the treatment lasts. If there is no draught in the duct and the windows stay without air supply, the patch will be back in the next heating season — and we say that before the work, not after.
Number of rooms or floor area, which floor, and the main symptom — a patch or a smell.
In a flat we start with the ventilation duct; it often settles everything else.
Moisture readings in the cold corners, behind furniture and at window reveals.
We treat the affected surfaces or the whole space; where a smell has soaked in we use ozone treatment.
We give the airing time and what has to be dealt with at building rather than flat level.
If an inspection shows treatment is not needed, or that treatment alone will not solve the problem, we say so. Building works — installing ventilation, fitting trickle vents in windows, insulation and waterproofing — are not things we do.
Vangazi is a town in its own right in the Ropazi municipality, and Incukalns lies next to it — they are not the same place, and the distance from Riga differs for each. So please give a precise address in your enquiry rather than just the municipality: we calculate the outside-Riga surcharge from it. Along the A2 corridor a call-out can often be combined with properties in Sigulda or Saulkrasti.
Flats: one-room from €55, two-room from €65, three-room from €75, four-room from €85. Private houses from €95. Commercial premises: up to 100 m² €1.20/m², 100–300 m² €0.90/m², 300–1000 m² €0.70/m². Mould: inspection from €40, treatment from €1.50/m², minimum from €80. Ozone treatment €1.20/m², minimum €60.
Within Riga travel is included in the price; outside Riga a surcharge applies by distance. All prices →
It will remove what has already soaked into your rooms and textiles, but it will not stop the transfer along the shared riser. If the source is in another flat or in the basement, the property manager deals with it — in the inspection description we set out clearly what was found and where.
No. They are separate places at different distances. Please give a precise address — we calculate the outside-Riga surcharge by distance and state it before setting off.
First the draught needs checking. Tight windows in an old building remove the air supply the building was designed around, and the moisture has nowhere to go. Treatment will remove the growth, but without restoring the supply it will come back — we say that before the work, not after.
Describe the situation — we will tell you whether treatment is needed at all, and which one.
Fill in the form — we will call you on the number you provide, ask a few clarifying questions and propose a solution.
Thank you! We will contact you on the phone number you provided shortly.
