Damp and mould are common in older and rented properties, especially through the winter. The right fix depends on the cause.
Common causes
- Condensation: moisture from cooking, showering and drying clothes indoors
- Penetrating damp: water getting in through faulty gutters, roofs or walls
- Plumbing leaks: hidden leaks in pipes or around baths and sinks
What helps
- Ventilate: use extractor fans and open windows
- Fix leaking gutters, pipes and roof faults
- Re-seal around baths and showers
- Treat mould and repaint with a suitable paint
We can fix the causes, from gutters to plumbing. Serious or widespread damp may need a specialist survey.
