What the work involves
If extract fans are weak, ducted into the loft or switched off, and windows stay shut in winter, that moisture settles on the coldest surfaces: window reveals, external corners, behind wardrobes and on bathroom ceilings. Mould needs that damp surface to grow.
Survey and findings
Humidity and surface readings, existing fans flow-tested, and a written list of causes and fixes.
Fan upgrades
Weak or loft-vented fans replaced and ducted outside, with humidity control.

Questions from Eccles
Is the survey free in Eccles?
For new installations on the UK mainland, yes. The survey is free and the quote that follows is fixed and in writing. Servicing, testing and repair visits are charged, and we confirm the cost before booking.
Is black mould dangerous?
Damp and mould can affect health, particularly for people with asthma, allergies, weak immune systems, children and older people, according to NHS and government guidance. It should be dealt with rather than lived with.
Is PIV or MVHR better for condensation?
For most existing homes with general condensation, PIV plus good extract fans is the most cost-effective fix. MVHR suits airtight, well-insulated homes and full renovations.
