When do you need a Mould & condensation assessment?
You need this assessment if you have visible mould growth, damp patches, peeling wallpaper, or excessive condensation on windows, especially in winter. It's crucial for understanding the root cause rather than just treating the symptoms.
What happens on the day
The specialist will inspect all affected areas and potentially your loft and external walls. They may use thermal imaging and moisture meters to gather data. Please ensure all areas are accessible.
How to prepare
- Clear access to all affected areas.
- Ensure heating is on as normal.
- Provide details of recent property changes or repairs.
- Be ready to discuss your heating and ventilation habits.
How to improve your result
- Open windows regularly for ventilation.
- Use extractor fans in bathrooms and kitchens.
- Ensure property is adequately heated.
- Avoid drying laundry indoors on radiators.
Why it is useful day to day
Understanding and resolving mould and condensation issues improves indoor air quality, protects your property's structure, and creates a healthier living environment. It also prevents costly future repairs.
Why we ask these questions
We ask about the property's age, construction, and your heating/ventilation habits to help the specialist understand potential contributing factors before their visit. Knowing the history helps them focus their investigation.
