Mould on window frames spreads if treated only at the surface

Black mould on frames returns fast if the room humidity stays high. Clean the mould and reduce moisture at the same time.

Safe cleaning steps

Use gloves, ventilate the room, apply mould cleaner carefully, and wipe with disposable cloths.

Reduce recurrence

Dry frames daily during heavy condensation periods and improve airflow around windows.

When to escalate

If mould keeps returning heavily, review humidity levels, ventilation, insulation, and hidden damp sources.
