Condensation and mould fixes for Eastleigh homes
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.

Questions from Eastleigh
What is the price of a condensation fix in Eastleigh?
Guide prices for Eastleigh use South East rates: new ducted fan to outside through the loft or ceiling (insulated duct, roof or soffit outlet) is typically £490 to £825 inc VAT per fan. We confirm a fixed price in writing before any work starts.
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.
Is the survey free in Eastleigh?
