What the work involves

Ventilation is usually the biggest part of the cure, but not the only part. Heating patterns, insulation gaps and cold bridges matter too, and some damp is not condensation at all: leaks, penetrating damp and rising damp need different trades. We tell you if that is what we find rather than selling a fan that will not help.

Whole-home ventilation

PIV, continuous extract or MVHR where moisture is spread through the house.

Mould treatment advice

How to clean and treat affected areas once the cause is fixed.

Survey and findings

Humidity and surface readings, existing fans flow-tested, and a written list of causes and fixes.
