Black Mould

[yansee]

I have black mold on my bathroom ceiling,would ordinary bleach kill it off rather than an expensive shop bought special mold killer ?

I had black mould in the bathroom and got rid of it very easily with Cilit Bang Black Mould Remover

I don't think a specialist "mould killer" has anything in it that ordianary bleach doesn't have. I used to use diluted bleach.
It will come back if you don't sort the problem out, though.

Tried bleach first and it did not work very well.

HG bathroom mould spray available in the likes of Robert Dyas and Homebase etc.

Get it established and nothing much shifts it. Replacement of silicon seal (or in your case ceiling) is a possible risk.

Ordinary chlorine bleach WILL work...but needs a few applications. Use diluted (say25%), leave to dry...apply again, let dry...then one more time. Don't rinse off at all.

Bleach will work but these things always come back unless you tackle the root cause and in bathrooms that is warm humid conditions, perfect for mould.
