Why Bar Beach homes grow mould
Bar Beach apartments cop constant sea spray, and the first thing it degrades is window seals. Once seals fail, wind-driven moisture enters the frame and sill cavities — feeding mould growth that shows up as black spotting around windows and on adjacent walls.
An assessment distinguishes seal-failure ingress from condensation (they look identical from inside but need completely different fixes), so owners and strata committees spend money on the right repair.
