Condensation

Condensation accounts for approximately 70% of reported domestic damp. If left untreated it will cause damage to walls, timber and plaster and is a contributing factor to some infestations of Wood Boring Beetle, dry rot outbreaks and respiratory problems to those living in the home.



Why do I have condensation?

Condensation can commonly be attributed to a lack of balance between heating and ventilation, resulting in a rise in relative humidity. In a nut shell, air can hold more water vapour when it is warm than when it is cold. When the warm air is cooled, such as when the heating system is switched off at night, it will deposit the water it can no longer retain as condensation on a cold surface. This is why condensation problems are far more common in the colder months.

What are the signs of condensation?

Black mould Damp musty smell
Visibly wet walls Mildew and mould on fabrics

What can I do if I have a problem with condensation?

Condensation problems need to be treated quickly to present more widespread problems but despite being one of the most common causes of damp, condensation is very simple to treat.
