Questions from Newtownabbey
Is the survey free in Newtownabbey?
Visits here are by arrangement. Because of the ferry or long travel involved, we quote travel separately and in writing before you commit, and we can often combine visits to keep the cost down.
What is the main cause of condensation in a house?
The main cause is moisture from everyday living, such as showers, cooking and drying clothes, that is not being extracted, combined with cold surfaces where it condenses. Poor or failed extract fans are a very common cause.
Will a dehumidifier fix condensation?
A dehumidifier helps in one room but treats the symptom. Fixing the extract in the wet rooms, and adding whole-home ventilation where needed, removes moisture before it spreads.
