What causes condensation?
Condensation occurs in both new and period properties and is caused by a build-up of moisture in your home. When warm, moist air comes into contact with either a surface or air that is colder than it is, the warm air is unable to retain the same amount of moisture as it did and the water is released either into the cold air or onto the colder surface, causing condensation to form, quickly followed by mould.
Rooms like kitchens and bathrooms are optimum environments for condensation, as cooking and bathing can create high levels of excess moisture.
Before calling in damp and condensation specialists such as ourselves, there are a lot of DIY solutions you can try first to try and alleviate the problem. Simple lifestyle changes such as drying your clothes outside or in a tumble dryer and keeping the lid over pots and pans when cooking can have a huge impact when it comes to reducing condensation.
If these DIY measures aren’t making any difference and you have a serious and persistent problem, then condensation control can be achieved by various professional methods. Ventilation is key to keeping condensation at bay.
Professional solutions to fix a condensation problem include:
Installing insulated plasterboard
Installing mechanical extractor fans
Applying specialist insulating plaster
Applying anti condensation paint
Installing a mechanical heat recovery system (MHRS)
By assessing the extent or your problem and the affected areas we will advise on the best solution to permanently eradicate your condensation problem.
